摘要： A wireless communication system that includes a robust transmitter array. The robust transmitter array includes an antenna array system with at least one column, at least one antenna element, and at least one polarization, a plurality of transmitter devices to transmit analog voice/data signals through the antenna array system, and a signal processor. The signal processor modifies two or more input signals in the event of a transmitter device failure such that substantially similar amounts of each of the two or more input signals are output from the transmitter system to the antenna array system, and wherein substantially less transmitted signal power is lost than in the case wherein the signal processor does not modify the two or more input signals in the event of a transmitter failure.

摘要： A method and apparatus for processing multiple signals at a common frequency combined into a single radio frequency cable and subsequently recovering the signals without significant losses, distortion, or cross-talk. The method and apparatus includes processing multiple signals at a common frequency fed through a single radio frequency (RF) cable with or without one or more amplifiers and utilized for either forward or reverse link transmissions. The invention enables a single power amplifier to amplify multiple RF signals that occupy a common frequency channel and after amplification splitting these signals into amplified copies of the originals. The amplified signals may be sent to different antenna ports to illuminate different base station sectors if required. The signal splitting function is performed at the antenna masthead such that this method reduces the number of feeder cables running up the antenna tower by a factor of N, where N is the number of common frequency signals (e.g., the number of sectors) amplified by the single power amplifier. This invention enables a single power amplifier to simultaneously provide all the radio frequency signals necessary to feed a general N input phased array antenna system and form multiple antenna beams uniquely for several individual users simultaneously.

The method includes representing a sample of a complex value discrete time signal using 2(L−N)−S mantissa bits and 2N+S exponent bits to realize peak output signal to noise ratios over a wider dynamic range compared to a conventional L-bit uniform quantization format.

摘要： A method and apparatus for transmitting wireless data to users which increases the wireless capacity for data transmissions within a sector served by a base station is disclosed. Accordingly, the sector is subdivided into a plurality of beams, typically by means of beam forming antennas, and the user data to be transmitted is time division multiplexed by scheduling the data into timeslots for transmission via the beams. Capacity is thus increased by decreasing network interference and/or transmitting data to more than one user at the same time by means of the multiple beams, and time division multiplexing the data. Preferably multiple users can be scheduled on multiple beams simultaneously in order to increase capacity. Preferably the same user can be allocated more than one beam if the radio conditions warrant. Such a system is optimized for data and carries out the following steps: a. Evaluating the reverse link wireless conditions for each user; b. responsive to step a, generating information defining the beam or beams to be utilized by each user; c. generating a Scheduler Metric (SM) for every user; d. scheduling each of the n beams based on the SM and said information for each user; and e. transmitting data scheduled in step d on said n beams.

摘要： A forward link transmitter in a sectored cell includes a baseband processor having traditional baseband signal digital processing circuitry in addition to including a digital hybrid matrix (vector and delay compensated transformation module) whose phase and amplitude (vector) and delay may be adjusted to compensate for downstream errors that are introduced and detected by a feedback circuit. Accordingly, the baseband processor, by monitoring an output of an analog hybrid matrix producing modulated and amplified radio frequency (RF) signals just prior to propagation from an antenna, can determine errors produced by the analog circuitry including the analog hybrid matrix and may compensate for the same by introducing an amplitude, phase and delay adjustment (in the digital domain) into output digital waveform signals to compensate for the error introduced downstream to the baseband processor.

摘要： A method and apparatus for reducing the peak to average power ratio of an OFDM signal. The method involves operating on the signal only after it is converted to the time domain where the signal is compared to a power threshold and any signal above the power threshold is considered undesirable. A reduced signal is produced by reducing the magnitude to the power threshold whenever it exceeds that threshold. The delta between the original signal and reduced signal is the clipped signal. The clipped signal is multiplied by a g-function, and then subtracted from the original signal to produce a first iteration of a peak-reduced signal. The process can then be repeated using the first peak-reduced signal in place of the original signal to produce the second iteration of a peak-reduced signal. This process can be repeated each time bringing the peaks closer to the power threshold. The g-function can be defined either to allow for per-symbol cyclic signal processing or non-cyclic processing that is symbol time independent.
摘要翻译：一种降低OFDM信号的峰均功率比的方法和装置。该方法仅在将信号转换为信号与功率阈值进行比较的时域之后对信号进行操作，并且认为任何高于功率阈值的信号都是不合需要的。通过在超过该阈值时将功率阈值的幅度减小来产生降低的信号。原始信号和减小信号之间的差值是限幅信号。剪切信号乘以g函数，然后从原始信号中减去，以产生峰值降低信号的第一次迭代。然后可以使用第一峰值降低信号代替原始信号来重复该过程，以产生峰值降低信号的第二次迭代。每次使峰值更接近功率阈值时，可以重复该过程。 g函数可以被定义为允许符号时间无关的每符号循环信号处理或非循环处理。
