| 20100103900 | BEAMFORMING METHOD AND DEVICE - The present invention relates to a beamforming device in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing access system, and a method thereof. In the method, a switched beamforming algorithm is applied to perform downlink beamforming, and an adaptive beamforming algorithm is applied to perform uplink receiving beamforming. In addition, a half wavelength array antenna is used to simultaneously allocate the same resource to two terminals separately positioned in two different spaces, so as to support spatial division multiple access (SDMA). In this case, since a base station uses channel status information at transmitter (CSIT) for transmitting beamforming and receiving beamforming, the SDMA may be supported without obtaining additional channel status information at receiver (CSIR) when realizing the uplink receiving beamforming. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100279619 | INTER-CELL INTERFERENCE RELIEF METHOD - In a method of mitigating inter-cell interference, terminals are grouped into groups. A base station transmits data to a first terminal belonging to a first group among the groups, without cooperation with a neighboring base station. The base station transmits data to a second terminal belonging to a second group among the groups, through cooperation with the neighboring base station. | 11-04-2010 |
| 20100310001 | TRANSMITTING/RECEIVING METHOD FOR MULTI-USER MULTIPLE-INPUT MULTIPLE-OUTPUT SYSTEM - Disclosed is a transmitting/receiving method in a multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MU-MIMO) channel. The transmitting method includes: performing QR decomposition on a Hermitian transpose matrix of a channel matrix to obtain a first matrix and a second matrix as a triangular matrix; obtaining a preprocessing matrix by using the first matrix; and forming an effective channel based on the preprocessing matrix by a block triangulation technique. | 12-09-2010 |
| 20100316145 | METHOD FOR CHANNEL ESTIMATION AND FEEDBACK IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM - Disclosed is a method for channel estimation and feedback in a wireless communication system that estimates a channel for each transmission antenna using an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) impulse signal. A method for channel estimation in a wireless communication system includes causing a base station to generate a training signal with a specific waveform for each transmission antenna and to transmit the generated training signal to terminals; causing the terminals to acquire a downlink channel impulse response for each transmission antenna of the base station using the training signal transmitted from the base station; causing the terminals to acquire a downlink channel characteristic for each transmission antenna of the base station using the acquired channel impulse response; causing the terminal to feed back the acquired downlink channel characteristic information to the base station; and causing the base station to perform fast Fourier transform (FFT) on the downlink channel information transmitted from the terminals to indirectly acquire full channel status information (CSI). | 12-16-2010 |
| 20100322160 | STRUCTURE AND CONSTRUCTION METHOD OF UPLINK CONTROL CHANNEL IN MOBILE WIDEBAND WIRELESS ACCESS SYSTEM - The present invention relates to an uplink control channel configuration in a mobile wideband wireless access system, and an allocation method thereof. An uplink control channel includes a long cyclic prefix used to improve interference and distortion caused by multipath transmission characteristics of an initial ranging or handover ranging signal and a periodic ranging or band request ranging signal. In addition, a short orthogonal frequency division multiple (OFDM) symbol is used to transmit uplink control information when one terminal exists or the number of terminals is small. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100322223 | BEAM FORMING METHOD AND APPARATUS - The present invention relates to a method of forming a random beam, and a beam forming apparatus. A quantization preprocessor and a random unitary matrix having a predetermined pattern are used to form a beam on a mobile terminal. A base station forms a beam using a codeword index of a quantization codebook received from a mobile terminal and channel quality information corresponding to the codeword index, and the mobile terminal generates the codeword index and the channel quality information using pilot signals generated by the base station. The number of pilot signals is equal to the number of transmitting antennas. Therefore, a codebook that has been known to both the mobile terminal and the base station is used, and the mobile terminal can select the codeword index for quantization, which makes it possible to selectively give diversity and thus improve the system efficiency. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20110026628 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MAPPING SYMBOL - In a symbol mapping method, transmission data is encoded to generate information bits and redundancy bits. An average LLR value of bits on which the information bits are mapped is different from an average LLR value of bits on which the redundancy bits are mapped. | 02-03-2011 |
| 20110033010 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SELECTION OF PRECODING MATRIX - The present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for selection of a precoding matrix. In the present invention, a precoding matrix to enable an effective signal-to-noise ratio (ESNR) to have a maximum value with respect to a signal vector that requires retransmission is selected in a codebook and fed back to a transmitter. Accordingly, since the effective signal-to-noise ratio has the maximum value after the signal vector is retransmitted, it is possible to minimize a reception error probability of retransmission. | 02-10-2011 |

The AP checks the access terminal by using the received identifier, and measures a round trip delay of the access terminal based on the received pilots. | 03-10-2011 |
