A beam and power allocation method for a MIMO system transmitting multiple data streams from a transmitter having a plurality of transmit antennas to a receiver having at least two receive antennas, the transmit antennas being grouped based on feedback information from the receiver, includes obtaining covariance matrices for respective transmit antenna group, and allocating beam and power to the transmit antenna groups according to the covariance matrices of the respective antenna groups. The power allocation method can be adapted to various partial beamforming techniques by generalizing the optimization problem as a function of transmit covariance matrices.
