BEAMFORMING ESTIMATION WITH ENHANCED PERFORMANCE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240322868 titled 'BEAMFORMING ESTIMATION WITH ENHANCED PERFORMANCE

The abstract describes a base station in a massive multiple input multiple output (MMIMO) radio access network (RAN) that is configured for beamforming estimation. The base station includes a processing device and a transceiver.

  • The processing device computes a precoder at the base station by jointly maximizing the signal with respect to noise and minimizing interference with respect to noise using an approximate decoder.
  • The processing device also computes the precoder based on a power constraint.
  • The processing device generates the precoder for precoding a downlink signal for transmission from the base station to a user equipment (UE).
  • The transceiver is responsible for transmitting the downlink signal to the UE.
