DIRECTED MAXIMUM RATIO COMBINING METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR HIGH DATA RATE TRAFFIC

摘要

Methods are provided for choosing mobile stations that have low cross correlations between their array response vectors, thereby minimizing inter-cell interference through uneven average reverse link data rates experienced by the mobile stations and minimizing intra-cell interference without explicit implementation of an interference cancellation algorithm, thereby maximizing the reverse link data throughput of a wireless communication system. Selected mobile stations of one or more are transmitted simultaneously to a base station.
