SYSTEMS AND METHODS EMPLOYING MULTIPLE INPUT MULTIPLE OUTPUT (MIMO) TECHNIQUES

摘要

A system has multiple antennas, a Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) module creating TDM slots, and demultiplexing circuitry inserting within the TDM slots Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) symbols and associating the TDM slots with data sub-streams. The system also includes precoding circuitry associating the data sub-streams with multiple tones. Each of the respective tones corresponds to a respective one of the antennas. The antennas transmit the data sub-streams using the multiple tones.
