The present invention relates to a method for operating a communication system in a network, the system comprising a primary station and at least one secondary station, the primary station comprising a plurality of transmit antennas and the secondary station comprising a plurality of receive antennas, the method comprising the steps of the primary station selecting a first communication scheme among a plurality of communication schemes, the primary station computing a transmission vector on the basis of the first communication scheme, the secondary station computing a reception vector on the basis of a second communication scheme, the second communication scheme being selected among the plurality of communication schemes by the secondary station on the assumption that a predetermined communication scheme is being used by the primary station.
A method for operating a secondary station in a network comprising a primary station and at least one secondary station, the primary station comprising a plurality of transmit antennas and the secondary station comprising a plurality of receive antennas, the secondary station performing post-processing on the basis of a first communication scheme, the method further comprising making an estimate of the combined channel based on the actual channel and the said post-processing.
A primary station comprising means for communicating in a network with at least one secondary station, the primary station comprising a plurality of transmit antennas and the secondary station comprising a plurality of receive antennas, the primary station further comprising control means for selecting a first communication scheme among a plurality of communication schemes, and for computing a transmission vector on the basis of the first communication scheme, the first communication scheme being different from a predetermined communication scheme being used by the secondary station.
A secondary station comprising communication means for communicating in a network with a primary station, wherein the secondary station comprises control means for computing a reception vector according to a predetermined communication scheme, and for estimating the combined channel based on the product of the actual channel and the reception vector.
A method for operating a communication system in a network, the system comprising a primary station and at least one secondary station, the primary station comprising a plurality of transmit antennas and the secondary station comprising a plurality of receive antennas, the method comprising the steps of
