Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to communication systems, and, more particularly, to wireless communication systems.
  • mobile units and base stations communicate by exchanging information over a wireless communication link or air interface.
  • the base stations may then connect to a network, such as the Internet, over a wired and/or wireless backhaul connection.
  • the backhaul connection may be a direct wired connection to a network entity such as a radio network controller.
  • the backhaul connection may include a number of wireless communication links, or legs, between base stations in the network.
  • the wireless backhaul connection in multi-hop cellular networks, wireless mesh backhaul networks, and ad hoc networks is formed over air interfaces between base stations in these networks.
  • networks that use a mesh of wireless communication links to form backhaul connections have a number of advantages, such as flexibility and scalability, over conventional hierarchical networks, these networks also have a number of disadvantages.
  • signal fading caused by multipath propagation of signals over the legs of the wireless backhaul connection may cause severe channel impairment that may limit the capacity of the wireless backhaul connection.
  • the capacity, reliability, and/or channel quality associated with an air interface may be improved utilizing multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) technologies.
  • MIMO multiple-input-multiple-output
  • the channel impairment caused by signal fading can be mitigated using the spatial diversity that is achieved by transmitting the same information from multiple antennas that are separated far enough to experience independent fading channels.
  • the performance of a wireless backhaul connection may therefore be improved by implementing MIMO techniques in the base stations and/or mobile units.
  • MIMO techniques in the base stations and/or mobile units.
  • service providers may prefer to deploy relatively small, inexpensive, and/or portable base stations and therefore may prefer to deploy base stations that only include a single antenna.
  • Spatial diversity can be achieved in networks formed of base stations and/or mobile units that include a single antenna by forming a virtual antenna array from multiple base stations and/or mobile units.
  • the virtual antenna array of a destination node in the wireless communication system includes the antenna at the destination node as well as antennas at one or more other nodes.
  • Information transmitted by a source node may then be received by the antenna at the destination node and the antennas at the other nodes.
  • the intermediate nodes may then forward or relay the received information to the destination node, which may cooperatively combine the information received directly from the source node with the information received from the intermediate nodes.
  • the combined information may then be decoded.

  • the relay terminal 220 combines the information received from the source terminal 205 and the relay terminal 215 and relays this information to the destination terminal 210.
  • the destination terminal 210 therefore receives identical information via four paths separated in the space domain, which may be combined to provide spatial diversity.
  • Figure 3 conceptually illustrates a first conventional relaying technique.
  • a source node 300 modulated and encodes a bit stream 305 and transmits the encoded information over the air interface to a destination node 310, which receives the (noisy) encoded bits 315.
  • the encoded information is also transmitted to a relay node 320, which receives a copy of the (noisy) encoded bits 325.
  • the relay node 320 demodulates and decodes the encoded bits 325 to form a decoded bit stream 330.
  • the relay node 320 then modulates and encodes the decoded bits 300.
  • the modulation and encoding format can be adapted to the quality of the link to the destination node 310.
  • the relay node 320 transmits the encoded bit stream to the destination node 310, which receives the (noisy) encoded bits 335.
  • the destination node 310 combines the bits 315, 335 to achieve spatial diversity.
  • the illustrated technique is conventionally referred to as a "decode-and-forward" technique because each relay node 320 decodes the received information before relaying it to the destination node 310.
  • the main shortcoming of the decode-and-forward approach is the fact the transmissions over each leg must be decoded separately, e.g., the transmissions are combined at the destination node 310 using hard combining techniques. No soft combining is possible at the destination node 310. Consequently, if none of the individual links (from any relay node 320 or from the source node 300) can be decoded correctly, then the whole block is in error and cannot be recovered. This means that the space diversity cannot be exploited fully.
  • Another disadvantage of full decoding used in the decode-and-forward approach is the highly involved signal processing that must be performed at each relay node 320 to demodulate, decode, modulate, and code the relayed signal.
  • Figure 4 conceptually illustrates a second conventional relaying technique.

  • the relay node 420 amplifies the encoded bits 425 by a factor ⁇ to form an amplified bit stream 430.
  • the relay node 420 transmits the amplified bit stream to the destination node 410, which receives the (noisy) encoded bits 435.
  • the destination node 410 combines the bits 415, 435 to achieve spatial diversity.
  • the illustrated technique is conventionally referred to as an "amplify-and-forward" technique because each relay node 420 amplifies the received information before relaying it to the destination node 410.
  • the amplify-and-forward approach has a number of drawbacks.
  • the information to be transmitted from the relay node 420 to the destination node 410 is in no way adapted to the corresponding mobile radio channel. For example, if transmission between the source node 400 and the relay node 420 has an available bandwidth of 10 MHz and the forwarding channel from the relay node 420 to the destination node 410 has an available bandwidth of only 5 MHz.
  • the forwarded information is encoded and modulated for the larger bandwidth, which is not optimal for information transmitted over the smaller bandwidth forwarding channel. This situation might occur if UMTS-LTE is applied at nodes enabling flexible bandwidth allocations.
  • the amplify-and-forward approach suffers high SINR deterioration due to the amplification of the noise in the received encoded bits 425. As a result, the amplify-and-forward approach shows low performance at low SINRs.
  • the relay nodes can also transmit quantized and compressed versions of the channel output to the destination node while exploiting statistical dependence in the source coding between this output and the channel output at the destination node.
  • This method is referred to as a "compress-and-forward" approach.
  • compress-and-forward approaches require tremendous signal processing effort at the relay node and are therefore considered difficult or impossible to implement in an actual wireless communication system.
  • no practical source coding strategies are known that exploit the statistical dependencies of the different channel outputs.
  • the present invention is directed to addressing the effects of one or more of the problems set forth above.
  • the following presents a simplified summary of the invention in order to provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the invention.

  • the techniques described herein may have a number of advantages over conventional practice. For example, relaying soft information as described herein permits soft combining at the destination decoder, which may increase network capacity relative to conventional decode-and-forward techniques. Furthermore, relaying soft information does not require full decoding of the codeword at the relay node, which reduces the signal processing complexity relative to conventional decode-and-forward techniques.
  • relaying soft information allows the relay nodes to flexibly adapt the information to be forwarded (e.g. , by modifying the quantisation, code rate, and/or modulation scheme) to the mobile radio channel conditions between the relay node and the destination node.
  • the relay nodes may also allocate the available relay resources (e.g., power, bandwidth, number of codes, number of subcarriers, number of timeslots, and the like) to the link between the relay node and the destination node.
  • the relay nodes may even use a different wireless communication standard and/or protocol for transmitting the soft information over the air interface between the relay node and the destination node.
