Spatial and temporal characteristics of received radio signals in a multiple user radio system can be estimated based on signals received from the users. In one embodiment, the invention includes collecting measurements of radio frequency signals received at different elements of an antenna system over time, the received signals corresponding at least in part to transmissions received from a system user, collecting representations of the transmissions of the system user, and comparing the representations to the collected measurements to form a spatial characterization of the radio channel traversed by transmissions of the system user in which the elements of the spatial characterization represent forming a beam in the direction of the system user and directing nulls to interferers.

Symbol estimation-based decorrelator for directing beams and nulls to remote users in a wireless communications system

A system and related methods for clustering multi-point communication targets is presented. According to one aspect of the invention, a method comprising measuring one or more performance characteristics associated for each of at least a subset of a plurality of targets in a wireless communication system, and selectively building one or more clusters, each cluster including one or more target(s) and sharing a wireless communication channel, based at least in part on the performance characteristics.

Spatial and temporal characteristics of received radio signals in a multiple user radio system can be estimated based on signals received from the users. In one embodiment, the invention includes collecting measurements of radio frequency signals received at different elements of an antenna system over time, the received signals corresponding at least in part to transmissions received from a system user, collecting representations of the transmissions of the system user, cross-correlating the collected measurements and the collected representations, and comparing the cross-correlation to the collected measurements to form a characterization of the radio channel traversed by transmissions of the system user.

Spatial and temporal characteristics of received radio signals in a multiple user radio system can be estimated based on signals received from the users. In one embodiment, the invention includes measuring radio frequency signals received at different elements of an antenna system over time, the received signals corresponding at least in part to transmissions received from a system user, accumulating the signal measurements into a first matrix, generating a second matrix representing the transmissions of the system user, cross-correlating the first and second matrices to form a third matrix, and multiplying the third matrix with a product of the second matrix to form a fourth matrix in which the elements of the fourth matrix characterize the radio channel traversed by transmissions of the system user.
