Provided is method for generating a precoder in a Multi User Multiple Input and Multiple Output (MU MIMO) communication system. The method involves receiving channel information and quality information of a channel from a plurality of stations. It is determined whether a first condition is satisfied on the basis of the received information, if so, a type of matrix inversion is selected from among a plurality of matrix inversion types for precoding. It is determined whether a second condition is satisfied on the basis of the provided information, and a type of decomposition from a plurality of decomposition types for precoding is selected if the second condition is satisfied. A precoder is generated on the basis of the selected result.

Method for generating precoder in multi user multiple input and multiple output communication system

A beam transmitting device improves performance of a communication channel. The beam transmitting device includes a controller configured to transmit a null data packet (NDP) and receive channel information; and a smoothing circuit configured to smooth a plurality of beamforming vectors in the channel information. The smoothing circuit includes a weight calculator configured to calculate a common phase factor using two adjacent beamforming vectors among the plurality of beamforming vectors, and a moving average filter configured to perform the smoothing using the common phase factor.
