MITIGATION OF TRANSMISSION ERRORS OF QUANTIZED CHANNEL STATE INFORMATION FEEDBACK IN MULTI ANTENNA SYSTEMS

摘要

Methods are disclosed for improving communications on feedback transmission channels, in which there is a possibility of bit errors. The basic solutions to counter those errors are: proper design of the CSI vector quantizer indexing (i.e., the bit representation of centroid indices) in order to minimize impact of index errors, use of error detection techniques to expurgate the erroneous indices and use of other methods to recover correct indices.
