Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Disclosed is a method of cancelling inter-subcarrier interferences in distributed antenna system. A method of cancelling interference performed in a transmitting station may include configuring a least one Alamouti pair by mapping subcarrier to each of input symbols, performing a 2N-point inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) on the at least one Alamouti pair, wherein the N is a natural number, and performing a frequency up converting on signals on which the 2N-point IFFT performed. Therefore, the inter-subcarrier interferences can be canceled efficiently.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of cancelling interference, performed in a transmitting station, comprising: configuring at least one Alamouti pair by mapping a subcarrier to each input symbol; performing a 2N-point inverse fast Fourier transform (IFFT) on the at least one Alamouti pair, wherein N is a natural number; and performing a frequency up converting on signals on which the 2N-point IFFT performed, wherein the at least one Alamouti pair is inputted to inputs 1 to N of whole inputs 1 to 2N of the 2N-point IFFT, 0 is inputted to inputs N+l to 2N of the inputs 1 to 2N of the 2N-point IFF, and the 2N-point IFFT is performed, in the performing of the 2N-point IFFT, wherein the at least one Alamouti pair is configured by using two subcarriers existing in positions of mirror images in reference to a mirror point located in (N/2)th subcarrier or (N/2+1)th subcarrier among N subcarriers, in the configuring at least one Alamouti pair. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein symbols to which subcarriers 1 to N/2 of subcarriers 1 to N mapped are inputted to inputs 1 to N/2 of inputs 1 to N of the 2N-point IFFT, and the Alamouti pair symbols to which subcarriers in positions of mirror images of the subcarriers 1 to N/2 mapped are inputted to inputs N/2+l to N of the inputs 1 to N of the 2N-point IFFT.
