Abstract:
Embodiments described herein include devices, methods, and instructions for managing beam interpolation in massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications. In one example embodiment, an evolved node B is configured to transmit to a UE using massive MIMO by transmitting multiple beamformed reference signals on multiple transmission beams each associated with a different plurality of antennas. The eNB receives beam interpolation information back from the UE, and then generates a data transmission that is sent to the UE using an interpolated transmission beam from a first and second transmission beam.

Claim (Index 1):
A computer readable medium comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, configure an evolved node B (enB) to transmit to one or more user equipment (UEs) via a massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system of the eNB, the eNB configured to:\n transmit a first transmission beamformed reference signal using a first transmission beam associated with a first plurality of antennas of the eNB; transmit a second transmission beamformed reference signal using a second transmission beam associated with a second plurality of antennas of the eNB; receive, at the eNB from the first UE, a set of beam interpolation information; and generate, using the set of beam interpolation information, a first interpolated transmission for the first UE using an interpolated transmission beam from the first transmission beam and the second transmission beam.
