Patent ID: 8254489

Claim:
A transmission method, adapted to a multiple input multiple output (MIMO) wireless communication system, a transmitting terminal of the MIMO wireless communication system having M transmitting antennae, and a receiving terminal of the MIMO wireless communication system having N receiving antennae, wherein M is an integer greater than 1 and N is an integer greater than or equal to 1, and the transmission method comprising: receiving, at the transmitting terminal, a transmitting bit sequence; providing, at the transmitting terminal, an X level pulse amplitude modulation (X-PAM) signal set, wherein distances between any two adjacent signal points in the X-PAM signal set are the same; generating, at the transmitting terminal, M different types of signal sets represented as a first to an M th signal sets according to the X-PAM signal set, wherein the i th signal set is formed by multiplying the X-PAM signal set with a parameter (1/X) (i−1) , wherein i is an integer between 2 to M, and generating, at the transmitting terminal, an X-PAM signal set joint coding/decoding table according a superposition result of the first to the M th signal sets; generating, at the transmitting terminal, a first to an M th transmitting bit sub-sequences according to the transmitting bit sequence; generating, at the transmitting terminal, a first to an M th transmitting signals according to the first to the M th transmitting bit sub-sequences and the X-PAM signal set joint coding/decoding table; and transmitting, at the transmitting terminal, the first to the M th transmitting signals to a wireless transmission channel via the first to the M th transmitting antennae, wherein the i th transmitting signal transmitted by the i th transmitting antenna is one of the signals in the i th signal set.
