Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to techniques and apparatus that may help improve greatly reduce the implementation complexity of the ground station, and ground base-station user capacity by utilizing a subband beamformer for processing uplink signals received from aircraft at ground base stations, in an air-to-ground (ATG) system. The techniques presented herein may allow for dynamic subband allocation to different airborne devices with multi-user beamforming and subband combining.
