Abstract

Methods, media, and systems are provided for adapting a beamforming mode based on channel state information. The methods, media, and systems receive, at a base station associated with an antenna array, the channel state information from one or more devices. Based on the channel state information, the methods, media, and systems determine whether an uplink signal measurement is above a first threshold and whether a downlink signal measurement is above a second threshold. Based on whether the uplink signal measurement is above the first threshold and whether the downlink signal measurement is above the second threshold, the methods, media, and systems instruct one or more antenna elements corresponding to the antenna array to schedule wireless transmissions utilizing closed-loop beamforming or open-loop beamforming.
