Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for communicating in a network, the network comprising at least a first cell and a second cell including respectively a first primary station having a first antenna array dedicated to the first cell and a second primary station having a second antenna array dedicated to the second cell, for communicating with a plurality of secondary stations, the method comprising the step of (a) providing with a co-operative beamforming transmission from the first and second primary stations to at least one first secondary station, wherein step (a) includes (a 1 ) the first secondary station signaling at least one channel matrix to at least one of the first and second primary stations, and (a 2 ) the first and second primary stations applying a precoding matrix across both the first antenna array and the second antenna array, and wherein the precoding matrix comprises a first vector for the first cell and a second vector for the second cell, the precoding matrix being based on the at least one channel matrix.

Claim (Index 14):
A method of operating a first primary station, the method comprising:\n in the first primary station:\n sending signals to and receiving signals from a plurality of secondary stations via a processor controlling a transceiver coupled to a first antenna array dedicated to a first cell of a network comprised of at least a first cell and a second cell; \n providing a first beamformed transmission from the first primary station via the processor controlling the transceiver coupled to the first antenna array, the first beamformed transmission cooperating with a second beamformed transmission of a second primary station to at least one secondary station; \n receiving, via the processor controlling the transceiver a signaling of at least one channel matrix from the at least one secondary station; and \n applying a precoding matrix via the processor across the first antenna array; and \n wherein the precoding matrix comprise a first vector for the first cell and a second vector for the second cell, the precoding matrix being based on the at least one channel matrix, and wherein the precoding matrix is applied for a first data stream transmitted using the first antenna array and a second data stream transmitted using the second antenna array.
