Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communications, comprising: receiving a first plurality of permuted data streams over a plurality of channels; inversely permuting the first plurality of permuted data streams; determining a quality metric for each data stream of the first plurality of permuted data streams based on different blocks of data for each data stream being permuted and transmitted over different ones of a plurality of antennas; determining a condensed quality metric based on the quality metrics for each data stream of the first plurality of permuted data streams, wherein the condensed quality metric is condensed with respect to a combination of the quality metrics for each data stream and comprises a reference quality metric and at least one delta quality metric indicative of quality metrics for the first plurality of permuted data streams; transmitting the condensed quality metric; and receiving at least one data stream of a second plurality of permuted data streams over the plurality of channels at a data rate that is based on the condensed quality metric.
