A method and system for calibrating transmit and receive antenna patterns for time division duplex (TDD) is described. A station in a communications network comprises at least two antennas configured to operate together for both transmitting and receiving modes. A phase setting difference between the transmit and receive antenna patterns may be determined and used to determine a relative amplitude setting for the transmit antenna pattern and/or a relative amplitude setting for the receive antenna pattern.
A method of configuring a station in a communications network comprising at least two antennas configured to operate together for both transmitting and receiving modes, and a plurality of radio circuits configured to transmit and receive via said antennas in a time division duplex (TDD) communication protocol, the method comprising:
