Abstract:
A communications system includes a plurality of transmitting units that each generate a pilot signal modulated using quantum level overlay modulation to apply at least one orthogonal function to the pilot signal and transmit the modulated pilot signal from the transmitting unit over a pilot channel. A base station unit including a MIMO receiver for receiving the pilot signals over the pilot channels from the plurality of transmitting units, demodulating the modulated pilot signals using the quantum level overlay modulation to remove the at least one orthogonal function from the pilot signals and outputting the demodulated pilot signal. The at least one orthogonal function applied to the pilot signals are orthogonal to each other and substantially reduces pilot channel contamination between the pilot channels.

Claim (Index 1):
A communications system, comprising:\n at least one first transmitting unit located in a first cell, each of the at least one first transmitting unit further comprising:\n first signal processing circuitry for generating a first pilot signal at the first transmitting unit; \n first QLO modulation circuitry for modulating the first pilot signal using quantum level overlay modulation to apply at least one first orthogonal function to the first pilot signal, wherein the modulated first pilot signal is mutually orthogonal in both time and frequency domains, further wherein the modulated first pilot signal minimizes time-frequency resources; \n a transceiver for transmitting the modulated first pilot signal from the transmitting unit over a first pilot channel from the first cell; \n at least one second transmitting unit located in a second cell, each of the at least one second transmitting unit further comprising:\n second signal processing circuitry for generating a second pilot signal at the second transmitting unit; \n second QLO modulation circuitry for modulating the second pilot signal using the quantum level overlay modulation to apply at least one second orthogonal function to the second pilot signal, wherein the modulated second pilot signal is mutually orthogonal in both time and frequency domains, further wherein the modulated second pilot signal minimizes time-frequency resources; \n a transceiver for transmitting the modulated second pilot signal from the transmitting unit over a second pilot channel from the second cell; \n wherein the at least one first orthogonal function applied to the first pilot signal and the at least one second orthogonal function applied to the second pilot signal are orthogonal to each other and substantially reduces pilot channel contamination between the first pilot channel and the second pilot channel.
