20100177856 | ITERATIVE INTERFERENCE CANCELLATION USING MIXED FEEDBACK WEIGHTS AND STABILIZING STEP SIZES - A receiver is configured for canceling intra-cell and inter-cell interference in coded, multiple-access, spread-spectrum transmissions that propagate through frequencyselective communication channels. The receiver employs iterative symbol-estimate weighting, subtractive cancellation with a stabilizing step-size, and mixed-decision symbol estimates. Receiver embodiments may be implemented explicitly in software or programmed hardware, or implicitly in standard Rake-based hardware either within the Rake (i.e., at the finger level) or outside the Rake (i.e., at the user or subchannel symbol level). | 07-15-2010 |

20100208854 | Iterative Interference Cancellation for MIMO-OFDM Receivers - An OFDMA-MIMO receiver performs a recursive interference cancellation across several correlated subbands and several receive antenna elements to demodulate complex source symbols for several users that have been coded across several subbands and transmit antennas. The iterative parallel interference canceller (PIC) is configured to work in the presence of both spatial and frequency structure introduced by the transmitter space-frequency mapping and the actual frequency selective wireless channel. The interference canceller uses mixed decisions, confidence weights, and stabilizing step sizes in a PIC receiver, which may be used with a successive decoding architecture in a receiver that employs a combination of modulation level interference cancellation with successive decoding. | 08-19-2010 |
20100215082 | ITERATIVE INTERFERENCE CANCELLER FOR WIRELESS MULTIPLE-ACCESS SYSTEMS EMPLOYING CLOSED LOOP TRANSMIT DIVERSITY - An interference-canceling receiver processes coded, multiple-access, spread-spectrum transmissions that propagate through frequency-selective communication channels from multiple transmit antennas to multiple receive antennas in a closed-loop transmit-diversity channel. The receiver provides for repeated use of symbol-estimate weighting, subtractive cancellation with a stabilizing step-size, and mixed-decision symbol estimation.

The receiver may be employed in user equipment on the forward link or in a base station on the reverse link. | 08-26-2010 |
