Embodiments herein provides a method and system for beam steering in a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system. The method comprising determining a precoder matrix based on at least one of an inter-antenna element spacing controlled based on a selection of a number of antenna elements at the transmitter and a location of at least one receiver; and steering a transmit beam using the precoder matrix towards the at least one receiver. Yet another embodiments proposes the method and system for steering the at least one optimal receive beam or optimal sub-receive beam towards the at least one transmitter based on at least one of a Channel Quality Indication (CQI), a Channel State Information (CSI), and a location.

Method for beam steering in multiple-input multiple-output system

Embodiments herein provide a method for beam steering in a Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system. The method includes steering a transmit beam using a precoder matrix determined based on a plurality of parameters, wherein the transmit beam is formed using at least one of a weight of each antenna element, a number of antenna elements, and an inter-antenna element spacing.

Embodiments herein provide a Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) method for a communication system in general, and more particularly to an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) based communication system to serve more than one receivers on the same resources. The method includes selecting, by a transmitter, a plurality of precoder matrices for a plurality of receivers from a predefined codebook of precoders, where the plurality of precoder matrices is dynamically cycled within an allocated resource. Further, the method includes transmitting, by the transmitter, a symbol vector precoded with the plurality of precoder matrices over MIMO channel associated with the plurality of receivers.
