MULTIPLE-INPUT, MULTIPLE-OUTPUT COMMUNICATION SYSTEM WITH REDUCED FEEDBACK

摘要

In MIMO systems, two or more transmit signals are transmitted from different antenna clusters having one or more transmit antennas each. A precoding circuit weight the transmit signals transmitted from each transmit antenna using a common set of frequency independent antenna weights for all antenna clusters. The antenna weights are computed based on correlations between transmit antennas in the same antenna cluster.
