Abstract

See full text

Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication. In one aspect, a method of wireless communication includes receiving, by a wireless device, beamforming information from a plurality of stations. The beamforming information includes feedback signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) values and beamforming feedback matrices. The method further includes determining a metric associated with a candidate group of the plurality of stations based at least in part on the received feedback SNR values and the received beamforming feedback matrices. The metric indicates a correlation between spatial streams of multi-user multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-MIMO) transmissions intended for the stations of the candidate group.
