Method and apparatus for multi-antenna transmission in uplink

摘要

Method and apparatus for uplink transmission using multiple antennas are disclosed. A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) performs space time transmit diversity (STTD) encoding on an input stream of a physical channel configured for STTD. Each physical channel may be mapped to either an in-phase (I) branch or a quadrature-phase (Q) branch. The WTRU may perform the STTD encoding either in a binary domain or in a complex domain. Additionally, the WTRU may perform pre-coding on at least one physical channel including the E-DPDCH with the pre-coding weights, and transmitting the pre-coded output streams via a plurality of antennas. The pre-coding may be performed either after or before spreading operation.

1. A method implemented in a wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) for uplink transmission using multiple antennas, the method comprising:
processing at least one enhanced dedicated channel (E-DCH) dedicated physical data channel (E-DPDCH), a first dedicated physical control channel (DPCCH), and a second DPCCH to generate a first data stream and a second data stream, wherein the first data stream includes the first DPCCH and the second data stream includes the second DPCCH; applying pre-coding weights to the generated first data stream and the second data stream; and transmitting the first data stream and the second data stream via a plurality of antennas, wherein the first stream and the second stream carry a same pilot sequence and the first stream and the second stream are transmitted using different channelization codes.
