Robust rank prediction for a mimo system

摘要: Techniques for performing rank prediction in a MIMO system are described. Performance metrics plurality of ranks initially determined. Each is indicative different number data streams to send simultaneously via channel. The performance may relate the capacity or signal quality channel throughput transmission sent Adjustments applied obtain adjusted metrics. adjustments account losses such as due an error correction code used transmission, estimation errors at receiver, variation interference observed by variability transmit power control, and/or other factors. A selected use based on ranks.
