| 摘要 |
A MIMO communications device comprises a detector and an antenna, the antenna comprising a plurality of antenna elements. Each antenna element is operable to receive a signal carried on electromagnetic radiation impinging on the antenna element substantially aligned with a predetermined direction relative to the antenna element, the antenna elements being aligned relative to each other such that with respect to the predetermined receiving directions of said antennas the antennas are relatively angularly displaced from each other. A corresponding method of conducting communication in a MIMO system is also disclosed, comprising the steps of determining, for a given device, a preferred direction of communication with other devices in the system, and scheduling communication with said other devices in directions corresponding to said detected preferred directions of communication.
