Method and device for providing static beamforming

摘要

The invention relates to a method for providing a static beamforming in a wireless communication system, preferably a UMTS system. The method is characterized in using an antenna arrangement of a base station which shapes at least one fixed beams, whereby the antenna arrangement covers at least two cells, each cell being covered by at least two beams. The at least two beams covering a cell use the same scrambling code and the same phase reference, whereby the base station autonomously decides which of the at least two fixed beams covering a cell should service a channel.
