Access point managed channel correlation for mu-mimo

Abstract

Apparatuses and methods for reducing channel correlation between wireless nodes are disclosed. An apparatus may receive channel state information (CSI) from each of a plurality of wireless nodes and determine, for each of the plurality of wireless nodes, a level of channel correlation with other wireless nodes based, at least in part, on the received CSI. The apparatus may identify one or more of the plurality of wireless nodes for which the determined level of channel correlation is greater than or equal to a value, and then generate, for at least one of the identified wireless nodes, an instruction requesting at least one of the identified wireless nodes to adjust a parameter by an amount based on the determined level of channel correlation. The apparatus may provide the instruction for transmission to the at least one of the identified wireless nodes.
