Abstract

The MIMO method and apparatus disclosed herein improve throughput conditions limited by multiplicative noise by reducing the gain of the data streams associated with one or more dominant signal paths between MIMO communication nodes. As used herein, multiplicative noise refers to any noise dependent on or proportional to a signal strength at a transmitting node and/or a receiving node of a wireless communication network. An additional method and apparatus are included for determining that multiplicative noise limits the throughput conditions.
