ALTERNATE FEEDBACK TYPES FOR DOWNLINK MULTIPLE USER MIMO CONFIGURATIONS

摘要

A method in a communication network includes obtaining descriptions of a plurality of communication channels each communication channel associated with a different one of a plurality of receivers; and generating a plurality of steering vectors, one for each of the plurality of receivers, using the descriptions of the plurality of communication channels; wherein each steering vector is used to transmit data to a corresponding one of the plurality receivers via a plurality of antennas and over a corresponding one of the communication channels simultaneously and wherein each steering vector is used to communicate data on a different one of the plurality of communication channels, and wherein each steering vector is generated to reduce interference on a corresponding communication channel caused by simultaneous transmission of data on other communication channels.
