Abstract
A system is disclosed that includes a plurality of m antenna arrays configured to receive a propagating radio frequency signal. Each antenna array includes a plurality of antenna elements and a beamformer configured to produce n different bi-directional beams using the plurality of antenna elements. The system includes a plurality of n multiple-input multiple-output transceivers (MIMO). Each MIMO transceiver includes a MIMO receiver configured to accept m received signals, wherein the i-th input signal to the j-th MIMO receiver corresponds to the j-th beam of the i-th antenna array. Each MIMO transceiver also includes a MIMO transmitter configured to provide m transmit signals, wherein the v-th output signal from the z-th MIMO transmitter corresponding to the z-th beam of the v-th antenna array is selected for transmission. m, n, v, and z are integer number values, and i=1, . . . , m, j=1, . . . , n, and v=1, . . . m.
