Generalized co-phasing for multiple transmitting and receiving antennas

摘要

A method for determining a phase of each of a plurality of transmitting antennas in a multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) communication system includes: calculating, for first and second ones of the plurality of transmitting antennas, a value based on first and second groups of channel gains, the first group including channel gains between the first transmitting antenna and each of a plurality of receiving antennas, the second group including channel gains between the second transmitting antenna and each of the plurality of receiving antennas; and determining the phase of each of the plurality of transmitting antennas based on at least the value.

1. A method comprising:
calculating a plurality of values based on a first group of channel gains and a second group of channel gains in a multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) communication system, wherein the first group corresponds to channel gains between a first of a plurality of transmitting antennas and each of a plurality of receiving antennas and the second group corresponds to channel gains between a second of the plurality of transmitting antennas and each of the plurality of receiving antennas, and evaluating a respective phase for each of the plurality of transmitting antennas based on the plurality of values.
