SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR BEAMFORMING AND RATE CONTROL IN A MULTI-INPUT MULTI-OUTPUT COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

摘要

METHOD AND APPARATUSES AND DISCLOSED THAT DETERMINE A TYPE OF CHANNEL INFORMATION BASED UPON WHETHER A WIRELESS DEVICE IS SCHEDULED TO RECEIVE SYMBOLS (200, 204, 310, 322). IN ADDITION, A DETERMINATION MAY BE AS TO A NUMBER OF HOP PERIODS (300, 302) TO DERETMINE THE TYPE CHANNEL INFORMATION. FURTHER, A DISTANCE BETWEEN HOP REGIONS (202, 203) MAY BE UNTILIZED TO DETERMINE A TYPE OF CHANNEL INFORMATION.
