Abstract

A communication system based upon frequency-domain MIMO processing is disclosed. A transmitting device of the communication system transforms time-domain signals into frequency-domain signals, and weights each frequency-domain signal to form weighted frequency-domain signals with each weighted frequency-domain signal being a function of each frequency-domain signal. The transmitting device transmits weighted time-domain waveforms as a function of the weighted frequency-domain signals. In response thereto, a receiving device of the communication system provides frequency-domain samples that are a function of the one or more weighted time-domain waveforms and weights each frequency-domain sample to form one or more weighted frequency-domain samples with each weighted frequency-domain sample being a function of each frequency-domain sample. The receiving device decodes the weighted frequency-domain sample to obtain the information represented by the time-domain signals.
