Abstract:
A transmitting radio node precodes a transmission from an antenna array to a receiving radio node. The array includes co-polarized antenna elements aligned in a given spatial dimension of the array. The transmitting radio node precodes the transmission from different subarrays of the antenna elements using respective coarse-granularity precoders that are factorizable from a multi-granular precoder targeting the given spatial dimension of the array at different granularities, so as to virtualize the subarrays as different auxiliary elements. The transmitting radio node also precode the transmission from the different auxiliary elements using one or more finer-granularity precoders that are also factorizable from the multi-granular precoder. In this case, the coarse granularity precoders and the one or more finer-granularity precoders are represented within one or more codebooks used for said precoding

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:\n transmitting a full-elements reference signal from the antenna elements without precoding; precoding transmission of an auxiliary-elements reference signal from the different subarrays of the antenna elements using respective coarse-granularity precoders that are factorizable from a multi-granular precoder targeting the given spatial dimension of the array at different granularities, so as to virtualize the subarrays as the different auxiliary elements; and transmitting the precoded, auxiliary-elements reference signal to the receiving radio node.
