Method and apparatus for performing stream weighting in an sdma communication system

TL;DR: In this paper, a method and apparatus for performing stream weighting in a spatial-division multiple access (SDMA) communication system is presented, where the base station receiver receives channel information from mobiles and calculates transmit antenna weights that maximize the power delivered to each mobile while allowing for a small amount of crosstalk to exist between users.

Title GCL Sequences for Uplink Channel Sounding in TDD OFDMA Date Submitted

TL;DR: This contribution proposes GCL sequences for use by the uplink channel sounding methodology described in Contribution C802.16e-04/263r1: “Uplink Channel Sounding for TDD-OFDMA”.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

An Experimental 8x8 System Used to Characterize the Spatial Channel at 3.5 GHz

User Selection for SDMA Beamforming with Imperfect CSI in MIMO-OFDM Systems

TL;DR: This paper considers exploiting multi-user diversity in a unique and practical setting that includes - significant transmit correlation, a broadband channel using OFDM, and imperfect CSI at the transmitter derived from channel reciprocity techniques.

Title Signaling Methodologies to Support Closed-Loop Transmit Processing in TDD-OFDMA Date Submitted

TL;DR: Optional signaling enhancements to support downlink closed-loop transmission techniques in TDD OFDMA systems and patents essential for compliance with both mandatory and optional portions of the standard.
