Abstract
Non-linear or linear precoding is used to create separate areas of coherence to different users. Limited feedback techniques may also be employed to send channel state information (CSI) from the plurality of users to the MU-MAS. In some embodiments, a codebook is built based on basis functions that span the radiated field of a transmit array. Additionally, the precoding may be continuously updated to create non-interfering areas of coherence to the users as the wireless channel changes due to Doppler effect. Moreover, the size of the areas of coherence may be dynamically adjusted depending on the distribution of users.
