Abstract

See full text

A multiple-input-multiple output (MIMO) transmitter for transmitting a group of sequential orthogonal frequency division multiplexed (OFDM) symbols on a time-division duplexed (TDD) channel in accordance with an IEEE 802.16 standard using a plurality of antennas. The MIMO transmitter comprises a spatial-frequency parser to parse a block of bits into spatial-frequency blocks of a variable number of coded bits, and subcarrier modulators to individually modulate OFDM subcarriers with the spatial-frequency blocks in accordance with spatial-frequency subcarrier modulation assignments to generate groups of symbol-modulated subcarriers. The TDD channel comprises a plurality of the groups of the OFDM subcarriers, and the OFDM subcarriers within each group of subcarriers and within each group of sequential OFDM symbols have the same spatial-frequency subcarrier modulation assignments.
