A system includes first and second sets of communication devices. A processor coupled to the first set of communication devices produces a first encoded vector and transmits the first encoded vector to the second set of communication devices via a communication channel that applies a channel transformation to the first encoded vector during transmission. A processor coupled to the second set of communication devices receives the transformed signal, detects an effective channel thereof, and identifies left and right singular vectors of the effective channel. A precoding matrix is selected from a codebook of unitary matrices based on a message, and a second encoded vector is produced based on a second known vector, the precoding matrix, a complex conjugate of the left singular vectors, and the right singular vectors. The second encoded vector is sent to the first set of communication devices for identification of the message.

A system and method are described which enable planned evolution and obsolescence of multiuser wireless spectrum. One embodiment of such a system includes one or multiple centralized processors and one or multiple distributed nodes that communicate via wireline or wireless connections. The distributed nodes may share their identification number and other reconfigurable system parameters with the centralized processor. The information about all distributed nodes may be stored in a database that is shared by all centralized processors. The reconfigurable system parameters may comprise power emission, frequency band, modulation/coding scheme. The distributed nodes may be software defined radios such as FPGA, DSP, GPU and/or GPCPU that run algorithms for baseband signal processing and may be reconfigured remotely by the centralized processor. A cloud wireless system may be used wherein the distributed nodes are reconfigured periodically or instantly to adjust to the evolving wireless architecture.

A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a system include a processor(s) that produces a set of beamforming vectors, each vector produced based on a distinct set of parameters. To produce vector of the vectors, the processor(s) obtains, from receive antennas, data comprising a waveform comprising slots with boundaries, from a first collection window. The processor(s) determines the parameters (e.g., silent portion length and signal portion length) and determines which slots of the waveform contain signal operating instructions. The processor(s) aligns the slot boundaries, utilizing the data, based on determining which slots of the waveform contain signal operating instructions. The processor(s) extracts the signal portion and the silent portion, determines a covariance for each, and determines a vector and eigenvalue. From the set, the processor(s) selects a vector and applies the vector to a second collection window to suppress interference in data received within the second collection window.

Precoding matrix computations for a large number of antenna arrays can be used to generate efficiencies within a wireless network. Utilizing network topology and context data in conjunction with known available network resources and mobile device measurements can facilitate gains in power and spectral efficiency and reduction in computation complexity posed by current procedures. To take advantage of multiple paths, the precoding matrix can be known at the radio units for each mobile device.

Transmission quality is improved in an environment in which direct waves dominate in a transmission method for transmitting a plurality of modulated signals from a plurality of antennas at the same time. All data symbols used in data transmission of a modulated signal are precoded by hopping between precoding matrices so that the precoding matrix used to precode each data symbol and the precoding matrices used to precode data symbols that are adjacent to the data symbol in the frequency domain and the time domain all differ. A modulated signal with such data symbols arranged therein is transmitted.
