Multiple in multiple out network coded amplify and forward relaying scheme for three node bidirectional cooperation

摘要

A method and apparatus are described including receiving a first signal including first data in a first time slot of a first channel, receiving a second signal including second data in a second time slot of a second channel, determining a first pre-coding matrix, determining a second pre-coding matrix, applying the first pre-coding matrix to the first data to produce pre-coded first data, applying the second pre-coding matrix to the second data to produce pre-coded second data, generating a third signal by combining the pre-coded first data and the pre-coded second data and transmitting the third signal on the first channel and on the second channel. Also described are a method and apparatus including transmitting a first signal, receiving a second signal including a first training sequence and decoding the second signal by removing the first training sequence and removing the first signal.
