A receiver detects a received signal, transmitted by a transmitter to carry payload data as Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed (OFDM) symbols in divided frames, each frame including a preamble including plural bootstrap OFDM symbols. A detector circuit detects, from the bootstrap OFDM symbols, a synchronization timing for converting a useful part of the bootstrap OFDM symbols into the frequency domain. A bootstrap processor detects an estimate of the channel transfer function from a first OFDM symbol, and a demodulator circuit recovers the signaling data from the bootstrap OFDM symbols using the estimate. The bootstrap processor includes an up-sampler configured to receive the bootstrap OFDM symbols, to form an up-sampled frequency domain version of the bootstrap OFDM symbol, and an output processor configured to identify a peak correlation result, to determine frequency offset of the received signal from a relative position of the peak correlation result in the frequency domain.

There is disclosed a method of operating a transmitter arrangement for a wireless communication network, the transmitter arrangement adapted for beamforming. The method comprises determining a maximum power level mask for the power of transmission and/or beams in a critical angular interval, the maximum power level mask covering at least the critical angular interval and controlling beamforming based on the maximum power level mask.

A method of reception of signals transmitted by a FBMC transmitter using a block Alamouti coding. After demodulation in a base band, the received signal is sampled, with the sample blocks undergoing a sliding FFT before being de-multiplexed towards a first path during a first use of the channel and a second path during a second use of the channel. The vectors received on the first path are multiplied by a first and a second transfer matrix, conjugated to provide first and second vectors. The vectors received on a second path undergo time-reversal and complex conjugation and, if appropriate, multiplication by an imaginary factor, depending on the size of the blocks. The vectors thus obtained are multiplied by first and second transfer matrices to provide third and fourth vectors. The first and fourth (second and third vectors) are then combined and the combined vector is filtered and spectrally de-spread to give an estimate of the block transmitted by the first (second) antenna of the transmitter during the first use of the channel.

A transmission method and an FBMC transmitter to transmit at least a first and a second block of symbols (X.sub.0, X.sub.1), each symbols block including a temporal sequence of L vectors with predetermined size N. It uses a first and a second FBMC modulation channel, each FBMC modulation channel being associated with an antenna. During a first use of the channel, the vectors of the first block and the vectors of the second block are input to the first and to the second FBMC modulation channels respectively, in the order of the temporal sequence. During a second use of the channel, the vectors of the first and second blocks are multiplied by a factor j.sup.L 1 respectively and −(j.sup.L 1) input to the second and to the first FBMC modulation channels respectively, in the inverse order of the temporal sequence.

The disclosure relates to a new Alamouti-based mapping scheme for use in a real field FBMC modulation system which can reduce FBMC-intrinsic interference and allows approaching optimal performance. The Alamouti-based mapping scheme proposed herein can be used for implementing space-time or space-frequency block codes (STBC/SFBC) codes. The proposed Alamouti-based mapping scheme suggests specific patterns to negate/invert signs of the modulation symbols of Alamouti pairs in the Alamouti mapping. By using these special patterns of sign negation, the FBMC-intrinsic interference can be reduced significantly so that it may become possible to use conventional Alamouti demapping/decoding procedures on the receiving side with an overall acceptable performance in real life systems.

Provided is a transmission control apparatus that, at a first transmission timing, causes a first symbol to be transmitted from a first antenna, causes the first symbol having the same phase as the first symbol transmitted from the first antenna to be transmitted from a second antenna that is orthogonal to the first antenna and has a path to a mobile terminal that is the same as a path between the first antenna and the mobile terminal, causes a second symbol to be transmitted from a third antenna arranged parallel to the first antenna, and causes the second symbol having the inverse phase of the second symbol transmitted from the third antenna to be transmitted from a fourth antenna that is orthogonal to the third antenna and has a path to the mobile terminal that is the same as a path between the third antenna and the mobile terminal.
