Abstract
The solution of the present invention is a precoding that allows an optimal use of multiple-antennas in a MIMO system. The precoding uses codebooks that are optimized for long-range wireless transmissions. A modified Kerdock codebook {wkmi} allows further improvement of the precoding gain. The modified Kerdock codebook {wkmi} contains new codewords wkmi that have been modified in order to further improve the transmit bit error rate (BER). The modified codebook {wkmi} allows a precoding gain that is between 2-3 dB. The present invention improves the transmit bit error rate (BER) of a wireless system. It allows a longer range in outdoor MIMO systems. Less signal outage is the result which allows that wireless signals can be transmitted over several kilometers.
