DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
(11) The present disclosure will be described in details hereinafter in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.
(12) As shown in
(13) According to the method in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the symbol rate for each layer of spatial data may be determined in such a manner that the error between the post-detection SERs for the layers of spatial data is smaller than the predetermined error threshold. As a result, it is able to provide different error-correction encoding schemes with different levels of protection for the layers of spatial data, balance the SERs for the layers of spatial data and provide the layers of spatial data with approximately uniform transmission performance, thereby to improve the system performance.
(14) In a possible embodiment of the present disclosure, preferably, the symbol rates for the layers of spatial data are different from each other, so as to provide different levels of error protection for different spatial data streams.
(15) In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the symbol rate for each layer of spatial data may be determined in various ways, as long as an error between the post-detection SERs for the layers of spatial data is smaller than the predetermined error threshold. Preferably, the symbol rate for each layer of spatial data may be determined in accordance with an equivalent error probability criterion.
(16) The equivalent error probability criterion refers to a principle where the post-detection SERs are approximately equal to each other. To be specific, based on this criterion, the symbol rate for each layer of spatial data may be determined through simulation in the case that a predetermined symbol rate constraint has been met.
(17) As shown in
(18) In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the symbol rate for each layer of spatial data is determined so as to enable the error between the SERs for the layers of spatial data to be smaller than the predetermined error threshold, so the error of each decoded layer of spatial data is smaller than the predetermined error threshold. As a result, it is able to improve the system performance.
(19) Preferably, the symbol rates for the layers of spatial data are different from each other.
(20) Preferably, the symbol rates for the layers of spatial data are determined in accordance with an equivalent error probability criterion.
(21) Preferably, the symbol rates for the layers of spatial data are determined through simulation in the case that a predetermined symbol rate constraint has been met.
(22) The technical solution is provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure for a SIC receiver.
(23) Taking an MIMO system using the technical solution provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure as an example,
(24) Taking three-antenna and four-antenna systems as examples, to-be-transmitted code words are G.sub.3 and G.sub.4 respectively.
(25) Principles for the G.sub.3-based three-antenna system and the G.sub.4-based four-antenna system may be shown by the following two equations:
(26) TABLE-US-00001
(27) In the case that three antennae are adopted at the transmitting end and the receiving end (i.e., N.sub.T=3 and N.sub.R=3) and the code word G.sub.3 is taken as a transmission matrix, signals received at the received end may be expressed as follows:
(28)
(29) Identically, in the case that four antennae are adopted at the transmitting end and the receiving end (i.e., N.sub.T=4 and N.sub.R=4), an equivalent channel matrix for G.sub.4 may be expressed as:
(30)
(31) Obviously, for any MIMO system where N.sub.RR.sub.G, the similar equivalent channel matrices for G.sub.3 and G.sub.4 may be acquired. Then, a ZF algorithm using a Vertical Bell Labs Layered Space-Time (V-BLAST) structure or an Ordered Successive Interference Cancellation (OSIC) algorithm may be used to perform the detection.
(32) Wireless channels between the transmitting antennae and corresponding receiving antennae are independent of each other, and they may obey flat Rayleigh fading. A channel fading coefficient may obey independently and identically complex Gaussian random distribution having a mean value of 0 and a variance of 1, in the case that the receiving end knows all Channel State Information (CSI).
(33)
(34) In the case that four antennae are adopted by both the transmitting end and the receiving end, the QO-STBC system may use the code word transmission matrix G.sub.4 based on 16-QAM. For the MLC structure, three parallel turbo encoders are used for protecting each layer of data by channel coding, R.sub.1=0.94, R.sub.2=0.81, R=0.58, and an equivalent symbol rate is R.sub.c=0.75. The QO-STBC transmitting structure having the BICM may use a turbo encoder having a fixed symbol rate of R.sub.c=0.75 The V-BLAST system with the BICM structure uses the QPSK modulation and turbo encoder with the symbol rate of 0.75. The three schemes may have an identical system spectrum efficiency, i.e., 8/4*4*0.75=4*2*0.75=6 bit/s/Hz. As shown in
