BEAMFORMING BY SECTOR SWEEPING

摘要

A method for beamforming in a communication system includes receiving a first plurality of training data units via a plurality of antennas, applying a different steering vector as each training data unit is received, generating a first plurality of quality indicators based on the first plurality of received training data units, such that each of the first plurality of quality indicators corresponds to a respective one of the first plurality of received training data units, and selecting a steering vector based on the different steering vectors and the first plurality of quality indicators.
