Original Abstract Submitted
a user equipment (ue) measures one or more reference signals received from a base station to estimate a set of parameters that characterize a wireless channel between the ue and the base station. the set of parameters includes at least a respective departure angle associated with each path of a plurality of paths of the wireless channel. the ue transmits the set of parameters to the base station to enable the base station to facilitate beamforming strategies to enhance signal quality at the ue based on at least one of a channel matrix and a transmit covariance matrix associated with the wireless channel. the channel matrix and transmit covariance matrix are represented by the set of parameters.
