Multi-user physical downlink control channel (pdcch) beamforming

A method for multi-user physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) beamforming, the method comprising:

• receiving, from a node configured to wirelessly communicate with one or more UEs, an indication that the node supports more than one UE via a single beam;
• receiving, at a first UE of the one or more UEs, a first signal comprising a first orthogonal code;
• and
• receiving, at the first UE of the one or more UEs, a second signal comprising a second orthogonal code, wherein the first signal and the second signal are communicated by the node via the single beam.

A system for multi-user physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) beamforming, the system comprising:

• one or more UEs;
• and
• a node configured to wirelessly communicate with the one or more UEs, wherein the node is configured to:
• (1) communicate a first signal to a first UE of the one or more UEs, the first signal including a first orthogonal code;
• and
• (2) communicate a second signal to a second UE of the one or more UEs, the second signal including a second orthogonal code, wherein the first signal and the second signal are communicated by the node via a single beam.
