Original Abstract Submitted
An example aspect comprises selecting an azimuth mode for an OAM MIMO transmission by a transmitter that includes a first number of circles that each include a second number of antenna elements, wherein the azimuth mode defines a DFT vector of a size less than or equal to the second number; selecting, from a plurality of radial modes associated with the azimuth mode, a radial mode for the transmission, wherein the radial modes include at least a first radial mode defining a first beamforming vector and a second radial mode defining a second beamforming vector, wherein each one of the first and second beamforming vectors includes the DFT vector weighted and repeated for a number of times less than or equal to the first number, wherein the first and second beamforming vectors are orthogonal to each other; and transmitting a signal using a beam configured according to the radial mode.
