Abstract

Systems and methods for utilizing new communication standards in wireless local area networks are provided that also support legacy wireless stations. The method can include user equipment determining channel state information, selecting a unitary channel decomposition precoder format based on the determined channel state information and transmitting the precoder format information to a base station. During a return transmission the user equipment can receive user data with the precoder format information and utilize a non-linear detector to demodulate and decode the user data. Based on the reception the user equipment can estimate channel quality; and transmitting channel quality information as feedback.
