ABSTRACT:

The present invention relates to a transmitter and a method as well as to a transmitting system for the wireless transmission of informational data and particularly to a technique for interference cancellation in OFDM communication.
One technique to minimize interference in wireless transmission, particularly in OFDM systems, is the so-called random orthogonal transform (ROT). The principles of ROT are described in the European patent application 98 104 287.2 of Sony Corporation which is only to be regarded to be prior art according to Article 54(3) EPC. The enclosure of said application is herewith incorporated by reference. In the following, the basic technique according to this application will be explained in detail with reference to

Consequently, the signal series X

n
(n=1, 2, 3, . . . ) which is equal to the signal series x

(n=1, 2, 3, . . . ) before the orthogonal conversion is restored.
By the way, at the base station
106
A, only the sending signal CA sent by the portable telephone device
105
A reaches, but the sending signal CB sent by the portable telephone device
105
B also reaches depending on the situation. In that case, the sending signal CB from the portable telephone device
105
B acts as an interference wave I. When the signal level of the sending signal CB is large as compared with the sending signal CA from the portable telephone device
105
A, trouble is caused to communication with the portable telephone device
105
A. In other words, as the base station
106
A, it is not recognized that the signal is a sending signal from either of the portable telephone devices
105
A or
105
B so that it is feared that the sending signal CB form the portable telephone device
105
B is received by mistake.
In such a case, the base station

A groups the N received signal series y

(n=1, 2, 3, . . . ) received from the portable telephone device

However, as seen from the equation (5), the receiving signal series y
(B)
n
(n=1, 2, 3, . . . ) from the portable telephone device
5
B is a result obtained from a multiplication of the orthogonal matrix M
B
which is different from the orthogonal matrix M
A
so that the diagonal reverse conversion is not obtained even when the inverse matrix M
A
−1
is multiplied with the result that the original signal series x
(B)
n
(n=1, 2, 3, . . . ) is not restored. In this case, the received signal series becomes a signal series which is the original signal series x
(B)
n
(n=1, 2, 3, . . . ) orthogonally converted with another orthogonal matrix consisting of M
A
−1
M
B
, so that the signal becomes ostensibly a noise signal, and even when the signal series is QPSK demodulated, the sending data of the portable telephone device
5
B is not restored.
In this manner, in the case of the radio communication system to which the present invention is applied, the orthogonal matrix which is different for each communication at the sending side is multiplied with the signal series. On the receiving side, the received signal series is multiplied with the inverse matrix of the orthogonal matrix which is used on the sending side (namely, t
