Preamble sequences for a multicarrier communication system using a multiple input multiple output scheme

摘要

In an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) communication system using multiple transmit antennas, a first base sequence with a first length is segmented into a first number of second sequences to which different time offsets are applied. Subsequences of a first preamble sequence corresponding to the number of second sequences are generated. A second base sequence with a second length is segmented into a second number of third sequences to which different time offsets are applied. Subsequences of a second preamble sequence corresponding to the number of third sequences are generated. A subsequence is selected from the subsequences of the first preamble sequence and is transmitted through a transmit antenna in a first time interval. A third preset number of subsequences are selected from the subsequences of the second preamble sequence, and are mapped and transmitted to the transmit antennas in a second time interval.
