Method for transmitting signals in a radiocommunication system and corresponding transmitter station and receiver station

The method according to claim 17, wherein

• the transmission difference is a deviation between the propagation direction of the pilot signal and the propagation direction of the data signals, and
• the data signals are predistorted according to the transmission difference prior to being transmitted by the transmitting station.

The method according to claim 18, wherein

• the reception characteristics of the pilot signal are determined,
• in order to determine the deviation between the propagation directions, the reception characteristics of the pilot signal are made available to the transmitting station, and
• in order to determine the deviation between the propagation directions, the reception characteristics of the pilot signal are combined with information on the transmission characteristics of the pilot signal.

A method for transmitting signals of a link between a transmitting station and a receiving station of a radiocommunication system, wherein

• at least one pilot signal is transmitted between the stations in order to enable estimation of at least one channel (CH) of said link by the receiving station,
• channel estimation results are determined in order to detect data to be transmitted to the receiving station by means of the signals of the link,
• deviation between the transmission characteristics of the pilot signal used for channel estimation and the transmission characteristics of the signals of the link is taken into account when the signals of the link which are to be transmitted are produced by the transmitting station and/or when the received signals of the link are processed by the receiving station.

A station for sending signals of a link to a receiving station of a radiocommunication system,

• with means for transmitting at least one pilot signal to the receiving station (UE) to enable estimation of at least one channel of the link by the receiving station, whereby the channel estimation results are determined in order to detect data to be transmitted to the receiving station by means of the signals of the link,
• with means for producing the signals of the link which are to be transmitted taking into account a deviation between the transmission characteristics of the pilot signals used for the channel estimation and the transmission characteristics of the signals of the link.

A station for receiving signals of a link from a transmitting station of a radiocommunication system,

• with means for receiving at least one pilot signal from the transmitting station for an estimation of at least one channel of the link by the receiving station, whereby channel estimation results are determined in order to detect data to be transmitted to the receiving station by means of the signals of the link,
• with means for processing the signals of the link received, taking into account a deviation between the transmission characteristics of the pilot signals used for the channel estimation and the transmission characteristics of the signals of the link.
