<p>The present invention is related to a method of analog beamforming in a wireless communication system, whereby said system has a plurality of transmit antennas and receive antennas. The method comprises the steps of determining transmit beamforming coefficients and receive beamforming coefficients by :
- determining information representative of communication channels formed between a transmit antenna and a receive antenna of the plurality of antennas,
- defining a set of coefficients representing jointly the transmit and the receive beamforming coefficients,
- determining a beamforming cost function using the information and the set of coefficients,
- determining an optimized set of coefficients by exploiting the beamforming cost function,
- separating the optimized set of coefficients into optimized transmit beamforming coefficients and optimized receive beamforming coefficients.</p> |
