Method and system for controlling a scanning beam in a point-to-multipoint (PMP) system

摘要

An approach is provided for communicating in a wireless network, such as a point-to-multipoint (PMP) system. A message that contains addressing information corresponding to one of the plurality of terminals is received by a radio terminal. The terminal electronically steers a beam of an antenna in response to the addressing information. The address information may also be used to specify the modulation type and coding level.
