Abstract
Method and apparatus for high resolution tracking via mono-pulse beam-forming in a communication system in which the capacity and range of mobile or fixed wireless communication base stations are improved by implementing a single or multiple antenna beam per signal path. Adaptive beam-forming based on up-link direction-of arrival estimation can be performed without using the above-mentioned computationally intensive techniques.
