Abstract  Abstract

Emission entity sends base pilot frequency symbol in each protocol data unit (PDU). In normal (or most of) signal path condition receiving entity can use the base pilot frequency symbol to implement adequately accurate signal patch response estimation for MIMO signal path. The emission entity selectively sends additional pilot frequency symbol based on demands for example signal path condition and/or other factor. The additional pilot frequency symbol can be inserted into PDU self-adaptively almost in any symbol cycle. The receiving entity can use the additional pilot frequency symbol to obtain improved signal path response estimation. The emission entity sends signaling for showing that the additional pilot frequency symbol is been sent. The signaling can be embedded into pilot frequency symbol transmitted by a group of pilot frequency sub-band for carrier wave pilot frequency symbol and the carrier wave pilot frequency symbol is transmitted in most of PDU. The signaling designates whether the additional pilot frequency symbol is being transmitted or possible other relative information.

A transmitting entity transmits a base pilot in each protocol data unit (PDU). A receiving entity is able to derive a sufficiently accurate channel response estimate of a MIMO channel with the base pilot under nominal (or most) channel conditions. The transmitting entity selectively transmits an additional pilot if and as needed e.g. based on channel conditions and/or other factors. The additional pilot may be adaptively inserted in almost any symbol period in the PDU. The receiving entity is able to derive an improved channel response estimate with the additional pilot. The transmitting entity sends signaling to indicate that additional pilot is being sent. This signaling may be embedded within pilot symbols sent on a set of pilot subbands used for a carrier pilot that is transmitted across most of the PDU. The signaling indicates whether additional pilot is being sent and possibly other pertinent information.
