Abstract
A radio system includes a base station and a remote station. The base station includes a space-time encoder, an antenna system, a transmitter, a base station receiver, and a power management controller. The space-time encoder encodes a stream of symbols into first and second space-time coded signals, and the transmitter transmits the first and second space-time coded signals at respective first and second initial transmit powers from the antenna system so as to form respective first and second radiation patterns. The base station receiver receives power coefficient indicator information from the remote station, and the power management controller determines first and second adjusted transmit powers based on the respective first and second initial transmit powers and the power coefficient indicator information. In an alternative embodiment, a transmit station of a radio system includes a circuit to determine an angular power spectrum, a space-time encoder, and a transmitter. The space-time encoder encodes first and second symbols into first and second space-time coded signals, and the transmitter transmits the first and second space-time coded signals in respective first and second beams so that the first and second beams are contained within an angular spread of the angular power spectrum.
