Abstract

The invention provides a method of operating a communication system. A channel matrix of a gain and phase between each transmit antenna and each receive antenna of the communication system is provided. At least one receive weight vector is computed as a function of the channel matrix and at least one of transmit weight vectors. An updated transmit weight vector is computed as a function of the transmit weight vector, the receive weight vector, the channel matrix.
