A method is provided, in which a base station allocates pilot signals to mobile terminals in a cell, obtains CSI from uplink pilot signals transmitted by mobile terminals, uses the CSI to precode messages, and transmits the messages in conformance with a TDD protocol. The CSI is obtained by comparing the pilot signal received from each mobile terminal to a known pilot signal associated with that mobile terminal. The known pilot signals are associated with respective mobile terminals according to a pilot signal reuse pattern in which adjacent cells are allocated mutually orthogonal reuse groups of mutually orthogonal pilot signals, and mobile terminals within a given cell are limited to transmitting only pilot signals allocated to that cell. |
