Abstract

A base station having an input module for receiving a probe signal sent from a terminal device, and a data processor for generating a signature waveform that is based on channel information derived from the probe signal, identifying data symbols intended to be transmitted to the terminal device, and modifying the data symbols based on the channel information. The modification of the data symbols is designed to reduce inter-symbol interference when the data symbols are received by the terminal device. The data processor generates a downlink signal based on the modified data symbols and the signature waveform. The base station generates a wide-band a radio frequency signal based on the downlink signal and transmits the radio frequency signal to the terminal device through a multipath channel such that a portion of the radio frequency signal intended for the terminal device focuses at the terminal device.
