Abstract

A wireless receiver receiving a signal from a wireless transmitter which includes a plurality of transmission antennas and transmits data to which first phase rotation for controlling the maximum delay time between the plurality of transmission antennas is added and pilot channels corresponding to the plurality of transmission antennas which are orthogonal to each other, where the wireless receiver includes a reception unit which receives the pilot channels and a demodulating unit which demodulates the data.

Claims (8)

1. A wireless receiver for receiving a signal from a wireless transmitter which includes a plurality of transmission antennas and transmits data to which first phase rotation for controlling the maximum delay time between the plurality of transmission antennas is added and pilot channels corresponding to the plurality of transmission antennas which are orthogonal to each other, the wireless receiver comprising:

a reception unit which receives the pilot channels; and

a demodulating unit which demodulates the data taking a transfer function calculated from the pilot channels and the first phase rotation into consideration,

wherein a rotation amount of the first phase rotation is variable,

wherein the wireless receiver is used in a transmission system in which scheduling of users is performed on a per-chunk basis where a region defined in a frequency domain and in a time domain is divided into chunks in the frequency domain and in the time domain, and

in the case in which the frequency bandwidth of the chunk is Fc, the rotation amount is set so that the maximum delay time between the plurality of transmission antennas is set to either a predetermined first value which is smaller than 1/Fc or a predetermined second value which is larger than 1/Fc.

2. The wireless receiver as recited in claim 1 , wherein the first value is zero.

3. The wireless receiver as recited in claim 1 , wherein the demodulating unit demodulates the data based on a signal obtained by averaging signals which are obtained from calculation of transfer functions and addition of the first phase rotation to the transfer functions for a plurality of allocated subcarriers.
