Abstract

Codebook based communication of precoding data between two stations involves determining a 'best fit' precoding at a receiving station, on the basis of channel state measurements taken therein. The best fit precoding is compared with pre-agreed entries in a codebook, and an indicator is sent back to the terminal emitting the analysed signal. The determination is separated into two elements, one being sufficient for use with SU-MIMO, and another being provided, with a second codebook indicator, if MU-MIMO is to be employed. This second codebook indicator points to a codebook of eigenvector representations for the multi-user space in which the channel is persisting.
