Abstract:
A method and apparatus for generation of orthogonal training signals for transmission in an antenna array are described. In this embodiment, a set of P training signals is generated. The generation of the P training signals includes generating a first set of Zadoff-Chu sequences, where the first set of sequences is based on a first reference Zadoff-Chu sequence and (P−1) first subsequent Zadoff-Chu sequences, where each one of the first subsequent Zadoff-Chu sequences is a cyclic shift of the first reference Zadoff-Chu sequence. A second set of sequences is generated based on a second reference Zadoff-Chu sequence and (P−1) second subsequent sequences that are cyclic shift of the second reference sequence. The P training signals are determined based on the first set of sequences and the second set of sequences. The training signals are then transmitted through a plurality of transmit paths of a base station towards a wireless network.
