Abstract

Mechanisms for determining directional beamforming weights are disclosed. A method performed by a radio transceiver device includes obtaining, from measurements on reference signals, channel estimates per antenna port and frequency. The channel estimates are indicative of power delay values per antenna port towards another radio transceiver device. The method includes determining modified channel estimates per antenna port and frequency with the power delay values outside a threshold delay window being suppressed. The method includes determining directional beamforming weights for beam-formed transmission towards said another radio transceiver device based on the modified channel estimates per antenna port and frequency.
