Abstract

See full text

A method is disclosed for using feedback to reduce crosstalk between mobile receivers in a wireless communications system comprising an adaptive transmitting antenna array. Feedback signals from the receivers are time-averaged and used to calculate a set of weight vectors that minimize crosstalk and maximize desired signal without requiring burdensome feedback rates. Beamforming diversity is combined with feedback through the use of diversity vectors. The preferred embodiment includes a method for obtaining the required feedback by exploiting the SAT circuitry present in the AMPS system currently in use. Consequently, the method may be implemented without modification to existing cellular phone handsets.
