Abstract

Embodiments provide systems and methods for enabling a first transceiver to learn beamforming weights (e.g., Eigen beamforming weights) to a second transceiver, without any pilot signaling or explicit beamforming weight signaling from the second transceiver. In another embodiment, beamforming weight vectors to enable a multi-symbol spatial rate can be learned by the first transceiver.
