A multiple-input multiple output (MIMO) receiver includes circuitry to receive a MIMO transmission through a plurality of antennas over a channel comprising two or more 20 MHz portions of bandwidth. The MIMO transmission comprises a plurality of streams, each transmitted over a corresponding spatial channel and configured for reception by multiple user stations. The MIMO receiver also includes circuitry to simultaneously accumulate signal information within at least two or more of the 20 MHz portions of bandwidth. Each 20 MHz portion comprises a plurality of OFDM subcarriers. The MIMO receiver also includes circuitry to demodulate at least one of the steams using receive beamforming techniques. In this way, multi-user protocol data units can be received.

A method for frequency- and time-selective interference suppression for a communication system based on OFDM, and a receiver therefor. To achieve a much lower bit error rate at the output of the receiver or to permit greater interference or a lower signal-to-noise ratio (in a prior art L-DACS1 receiver, at least 45 nautical miles) for the same transmission power, the invention provides: a filter bank pulse blanking method FBPB in which the sampled received signal is applied to a blanking unit for frequency-selective pulse blanking, which blanking unit consists of an analysis filter bank having M sub-bands; a module for frequency-selective pulse blanking of the sub-band signals; and a synthesis filter bank, which reassembles the signal. The analysis filter bank, which breaks down the received signal into multiple sub-bands on a frequency-selective basis, is used before OFDM windowing, such that the sub-band breakdown applies pulse blanking on a sub-band-selective basis.

Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a wireless device may transmit an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal on K subsets of N subcarriers, where the signal includes a sequence of modulated symbols for each subset of the K subsets that is distinct for each subset. The wireless device may receive a reflected OFDM signal that corresponds to the OFDM signal. The wireless device may process the reflected OFD.M signal with K mixers, where mixer frequencies for the K mixers are separated by N subcarriers spacing, to form K portions of a range spectrum from the reflected OFDM signal. The wireless device may combine the K portions to form the range spectrum. Numerous other aspects are described.

A method for signal transmission includes determining whether to perform repeated transmissions for a time length of a multiplication of L and M or more, wherein L indicates the overlapping factor of the system and M indicates a number of quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) filter bank multi-carrier (FBMC) symbols, determining information on a type of the repeated transmissions to be performed, and transmitting FBMC symbols using a transmit power determined based on the type of the repeated transmissions. A base station includes a transceiver unit to send and receive signals, a control unit configured to determine whether to perform repeated transmissions for a time length of a multiplication of L and M or more, determine information on a type of the repeated transmissions to be performed, and transmit FBMC symbols using a transmit power determined based on the type of the repeated transmissions.

A resource block (RB)-based multicarrier modulation (MCM) transmitter and receiver structure for spectral agile systems are disclosed. The transmitter and the receiver are capable of sharing opportunistically available and non-contiguous channels with other users. The RB-MCM partitions the available spectrum, contiguous or non-contiguous, into multiple RBs (same or different sizes), applies a baseband MCM or single carrier modulation, or coded single carrier or multicarrier schemes in each RB with a type of spectral leakage reduction technique, and applies RB modulation for each RB to modulate the signal from baseband to the frequency band of that RB. At the receiver, the received signal may be filtered and RB demodulation may be applied to put each RB signal in baseband and a baseband multicarrier or single carrier or coded single carrier or coded multicarrier demodulation may be applied to each RB signal. Different RBs may use different modulation schemes.

A system and method for orthogonal time frequency space communication and waveform generation. The method includes receiving a plurality of information symbols and encoding an NM array containing the plurality of information symbols into a two-dimensional array of modulation symbols by spreading each of the plurality of information symbols with respect to both time and frequency. The two-dimensional array of modulation symbols is then transmitted using M mutually orthogonal waveforms included within M frequency sub-bands.
