Abstract:
1. The method comprising: determining, at a transceiver system, a phase difference between corresponding beamforming steering vectors of each pair of consecutive beamforming steering matrices of a plurality of beamforming steering matrices, wherein the plurality of beamforming steering matrices are associated with a plurality of subcarriers of a radio frequency (RF) signal received at the transceiver system; performing phase rotation on the corresponding beamforming steering vectors of a pair of consecutive beamforming steering matrices based, at least in part, on the determined phase difference to improve phase continuity between consecutive beamforming steering matrices; interpolating the beamforming steering matrices to ungroup the beamforming steering matrices; and applying the beamforming steering matrices to data to be transmitted by the transceiver system to generate beamformed data streams.
