Abstract

Systems and methods are described for radio frequency (RF) calibration in a multiple antenna system (MAS) with multi-user (MU) transmissions (“MU-MAS”) exploiting uplink/downlink channel reciprocity. The RF calibration is used to compute open-loop downlink precoder based on uplink channel estimates, thereby avoiding feedback overhead for channel state information as in closed-loop schemes. For example, a MU-MAS of one embodiment includes a wireless cellular network with one or multiple beacon stations, multiple client devices and multiple distributed antennas operating cooperatively via precoding methods to eliminate inter-client interference and increase network capacity.

1. A method comprising:

(1) receiving a plurality of uplink (UL) transmissions in frequency selective channels by a second plurality of antennas that is a subset or all of a first plurality of antennas of a wireless transceiver station from a third plurality of antennas of a plurality of user equipment devices (UEs), where the first plurality of antennas includes more than 8 antennas;

(2) determining a plurality of UL channel state information (CSI) in response to each UL transmission sent by one antenna of the third plurality of antennas and received by one antenna of the second plurality of antennas;
