Abstract
A method for decoding a wireless channel includes generating hypotheses of how many antennas each of at least two base stations have in a synchronized network and how received signals are being transmitted for each of the at least two base stations, detecting a MIMO signal using the hypotheses and signal components received from the at least two base stations, decoding the signal, and determining whether the decoded signal is valid by performing a cyclical redundancy check calculation.
Claims21
A method for decoding a wireless channel comprising:
- generating hypotheses for a first number of antennas at each of at least two base stations in a synchronized network;
- detecting a MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) signal using the hypotheses and signal components received from the at least two base stations;
- decoding the signal;
- determining whether the decoded signal is valid by performing a CRC (cyclical redundancy check) calculation;
- and
- generating an additional hypothesis for a second number of antennas at each of the at least two base stations and for how received signals are being transmitted for each of the at least two base stations if the cyclical redundancy check calculation indicates that the decoded signal is not valid, wherein the second number of antennas is different than the first number of antennas.
A mobile wireless device comprising:
- a hypothesis generator, configured to generate hypotheses for a first number of antennas at each of at least two base stations in a synchronized network when the at least two base stations are concurrently within wireless proximity of the mobile wireless device;
- a MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) detector provided with the number of possible antennas for each of at least two base stations, and configured to estimate a signal based on wireless components received from the at least two base stations;
- a decoder configured to decode the signal into a decoded signal;
- a CRC (cyclical redundancy check) checker configured to determine whether the decoded signal is valid by performing a cyclical redundancy check calculation;
- and
- the hypothesis generator further configured to generate an additional hypothesis for a second number of antennas at each of the at least two base stations if the cyclical redundancy check calculation indicates that the decoded signal is not valid, wherein the second number of antennas is different than the first number of antennas.
A non-transitory computer readable medium encoded with a method which, when executed by a computer, decodes a wireless channel, the method comprising:
- generating hypotheses for a first number of antennas at each of at least two base stations in a synchronized network;
- detecting a MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) signal using the hypotheses and signal components received from the at least two base stations;
- decoding the signal;
- and
- determining whether the decoded signal is valid by performing a cyclical redundancy check calculation;
- and
- generating an additional hypothesis for a second number of antennas at each of the at least two base stations if the cyclical redundancy check calculation indicates that the decoded signal is not valid, wherein the second number of antennas is different than the first number of antennas.
