Abstract
The present invention discloses a method and system for signal communication in a multi-input multi-output network. The method creates beamformed channels by calculating one or more beamforming weighting vectors corresponding to one or more antennas on the receiving wireless station based on the predetermined receiving signals. The transmitting wireless station transmits one or more beamformed transmission signals to the receiving wireless station using the calculated beamforming weighting vectors for targeting at the antennas thereon, thereby creating two or more detectably uncorrelated transmission signals received at the receiving wireless station.
