Abstract

Provided is a method for transmitting and receiving multi-input multi-output in a wireless backhaul network, including: selecting at least one pair of dual-polarized transmitting antennas to be activated among pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas of a transmitter; transmitting a signal through the selected pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas; and receiving, by pairs of dual-polarized receiving antennas of a receiver, the signal transmitted from the transmitter.

Claims (27)

1. A method for transmitting and receiving multi-input multi-output in a wireless backhaul network using a transmitter having a plurality of pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas and a receiver having a plurality of pairs of dual-polarized receiving antennas, comprising:

selecting and activating one pair of the plurality of pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas of the transmitter using a bit signal that is of a length of log 2 N T bits N T being the number of pairs of the plurality of pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas;

transmitting a signal through the selected pair of dual-polarized transmitting antennas, the signal including the bit signal and a data signal that is of a length of 2 log 2 Ω bits, Ω being the number of bits of a constellation corresponding to a modulation scheme of the data signal; and

selecting one of the plurality of pairs of dual-polarized receiving antennas of the receiver corresponding to the selected pair of dual-polarized transmitting antennas, and receiving the signal transmitted from the transmitter using the selected pair of dual-polarized receiving antennas.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the transmitting a signal includes transmitting a quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) symbol.

5. A method for transmitting and receiving multi-input multi-output in a wireless backhaul network using a transmitter having a plurality of pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas and a receiver having a plurality of pairs of dual-polarized receiving antennas, comprising:

transmitting, by one pair of the plurality of pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas, a virtual data stream, the virtual data stream including a bit signal that is of a length of log 2 N T bits and a data signal that is of a length of 2 log 2 Ω bits, N T being the number of pairs of the plurality of pairs of dual-polarized transmitting antennas, Ω being the number of bits of a constellation corresponding to a modulation scheme of the data signal; and

receiving, by one pair of the plurality of pairs of dual-polarized receiving antennas selected corresponding to the one pair of dual-polarized transmitting antennas, the transmitted virtual data stream.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein in the transmitting, the virtual data stream is transmitted using 4-QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation) constellation or 16-QAM constellation.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the transmitter is disposed by controlling an angle between the pair of the plurality of dual-polarized transmitting antennas of the transmitter so as to minimize an error probability of the receiver.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the error probability is associated with the angle between the pair of the plurality of dual-polarized transmitting antennas or the constellation.
