Abstract

A method for channel smoothing with transmit beamforming includes transmitting, by a first device, a non-data-packet (NDP) frame to a second device. The method also includes receiving, by the second device, the NDP frame and transmitting a compressed report to the first device. The method further includes receiving, by the first device, the compressed report and deriving a first beamforming matrix from the compressed report. A second beamforming matrix is generated employing a processing known to the second device, and a data frame is transmitted to the second device using the second beamforming matrix.
