Abstract

See full text

MIMO transmission methods are applied to communicaiton systems in which a transmitter has more than one transmit antenna and a receiver has more than one receive antenna. Information to be transmitted is divided into a plurality of subsignals according to the number of used transmit antennas and each subsignal is processed separately before it is emitted by the respective transmit antenna. In the receiver the different receive signals are processed thus that subsignals are detected and decoded and the contribution of each detected and decoded subsignal is subtracted from the receive signals and whereby a feedback channel from receiver to transmitter is used to send control information to the transmitter depending on the receive situation. In order to optimize the usage of the MIMO channel the invention proposes the in the receiver the link quality of each subsignal is determined and information of each subsignal is transmitted to the receiver via the feedback channel and that in the transmitter properties of the subsignals are controlled by the link quality information.
