20140064393 | EFFICIENT SEARCH OF PRECODERS IN PRECODED MIMO SYSTEMS - A method includes calculating a set of first metrics using channel information and one or more precoders, where each of the first metrics corresponds to a respective set of a plurality of sets of codebook precoders, and selecting, based on the set of first metrics and a first selection criteria, a set of codebook precoders from the plurality of sets of codebook precoders. The method also includes, in response to selecting the set of codebook precoders, calculating a set of second metrics and selecting, based on (i) the set of second metrics and (ii) a second selection criteria, a codebook precoder from the selected set of codebook precoders. Each of the second metrics is calculated using a respective codebook precoder in the selected set of codebook precoders. The method also includes causing the selected codebook precoder to be applied to a signal to be transmitted to a communication device. | 03-06-2014 |
20140301509 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CHANNEL QUALITY INDICATOR (CQI) SELECTION FOR NON-DETERMINISTIC RECEIVERS - Systems and methods are provided for determining a channel quality indicator (CQI) for receivers that exhibit non-deterministic behavior during the CQI selection process. A codeword is received over a transmission system at a receiver, and a performance measure that is dependent on the CQI is determined for the codeword. The receiver determines an objective function that is based on the CQI and the performance measure, and selects a value for the CQI by performing an optimization technique on the objective function. The optimization technique is performed on the objective function over a range of candidate CQI values, and the selected value for the CQI is the candidate CQI value that optimizes the objective function. | 10-09-2014 |
20140327559 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ORDERING CODEWORDS BASED ON POSTERIOR INFORMATION IN SUCCESSIVE INTERFERENCE CANCELLATION (SIC) RECEIVERS - Systems and methods are provided for determining a decoding order in a successive interference cancellation receiver. The method includes receiving, using control circuitry, a plurality of codewords. The method further includes computing at least one ordering metric for at least one of the plurality of codewords based on posterior information associated with the plurality of codewords, and determining the decoding order based on the at least one ordering metric. | 11-06-2014 |
20140376653 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING INDICATORS USED IN CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION (CSI) FEEDBACK IN WIRELESS SYSTEMS - Systems and methods are provided for determining channel state information (CSI) at a receiver for feedback to a transmitter to indicate properties of the communication channel. A signal is received at a receiver over a communication channel. An optimization value is determined based on the received signal and a plurality of matrix indicators. An amount of change in wideband properties of the communication channel is determined from the optimization value. Based on the determined amount of change, a CSI including a selected type indicator and a selected subset of the plurality of the matrix indicators is selected. | 12-25-2014 |
