Abstract
A wireless system includes a network of base stations for receiving uplink signals transmitted from a plurality of remote terminals and for transmitting downlink signals to said plurality of remote terminals using a plurality of channels. A plurality of antenna elements at each base station receives uplink signals, and a plurality of antenna elements at each base station for transmits downlink signals. A signal processor at each base station is connected to the receiving antenna elements and to the transmitting antenna elements for determining spatio-temporal signatures. Spatio-temporal multiplexing and demultiplexing functions are provided for each remote terminal antennae for each channel, and a multiple base station network controller optimizies network performance, whereby communication between the base stations and the plurality of remote terminals in each of the channels can occur simultaneously.
