Abstract

Feedback bandwidth may be reduced in a closed loop MIMO system by Householder transformations, vector quantization using codebooks, and down-sampling in the frequency domain. A column of a beamforming matrix is quantized using a codebook, a Householder reflection is performed on the beamforming matrix to reduce the dimensionality of the beamforming matrix, and the quantizing and performing of Householder reflection on the previously dimensionality reduced beamforming matrix is recursively repeated to obtain a further reduction of dimensionality of the beamforming matrix. These actions are performed for a subset of orthogonal frequency divisional multiplexing (OFDM) carriers, and quantized column vectors for the subset of OFDM carriers are transmitted.
