Claim 1:
2. The method according to claim 1, characterized by the further step of:
retrieving, from said memory, second vector-associated data defined by an obtained second beam index;
said second beam index being assigned to a second signal;
said second signal being scheduled to be communicated by beamforming in a second direction;
said second direction being different from said first direction;
said second signal being scheduled to be communicated simultaneously as said first signal by a same antenna using a same physical resource;
whereby said second vector-associated data characterizing a second selected set of beamforming vectors, being designed to give a beam in said second direction;
wherein said second beam index comprises information for defining vector-associated data characterizing a particular one of said at least two sets of beamforming vectors for said second direction; and
wherein said step of initiating a beamforming comprises initiating a multi-user beamforming for said first and second signals by use of said first and second vector-associated data characterizing said first and second selected sets of beamforming vectors.
