Claim 0:
1. A method for beamforming in a distributed wireless network, the method comprising:
estimating a channel and interference estimation;
calculating a closed form beamforming solution based on the channel and interference estimation for a first plurality of mosaic nodes to determine a first predistortion filter;
receiving a signal at one or more of the first plurality of mosaic nodes;
applying the first predistortion filter at each node of the first plurality of mosaic nodes; and
retransmitting the signal from the first plurality of mosaic nodes toward a first receiving target, wherein the first predistortion filter causes a resulting first retransmitted signal to coherently combine at the first receiving target, wherein the first predistortion filter causes the resulting first retransmitted signal to coherently combine at the first receiving target such that signal power is concentrated in a direction of the first receiving target.
