A system and method in which two base stations—a Primary Base Station (PBS) and a Secondary Base Station (SBS)—are used to accomplish a Virtual 2-antenna Receiver (V2RX) scheme. The PBS may perform the initial transmissions of symbols, but, instead of the PBS, the SBS may handle the subsequent reception of terminal-specific Channel State Information (CSI) and the broadcast of an additional signal. The SBS can be much simpler in design than the PBS, and can be located physically closer to the terminals, requiring less power for the feedback signals (from the terminals) and also for SBS's own broadcast of the additional signal to terminals. The reception and usage of stale CSI using a secondary base station can be important for dense networks with a large number of simple terminals. Because of the rules governing abstracts, this abstract should not be used to construe claims. |
