Most Cited Patent US6473467 (Method and apparatus for measuring reporting
channel state information in a high efficiency, high performance
communications system): Channel state information (CSI) can be
used by a communications system to precondition transmissions
between transmitter units and receiver units. In one aspect of the
invention, disjoint sub-channel sets are assigned to transmit
antennas located at a transmitter unit. Pilot symbols are generated
and transmitted on a subset of the disjoint sub-channels. Upon
receipt of the transmitted pilot symbols, the receiver units
determine the CSI for the disjoint sub-channels that carried pilot
symbols. These CSI values are reported to the transmitter unit,
which will use these CSI values to generate CSI estimates for the
disjoint sub-channels that did not carry pilot symbols. The amount
of information necessary to report CSI on the reverse link can be
further minimized through compression techniques and resource
allocation techniques.
