Abstract
A method for modifying a signal transmitted from a mobile communication device comprising perturbing a transmit diversity parameter from its nominal value by modulating the parameter with respect to the nominal value in alternating directions, receiving a feedback signal including feedback information relating to the modified signal as received at a feedback device, and based at least on the feedback information, adjusting the nominal value of the transmit diversity parameter by increasing, decreasing, or preserving the nominal value. The perturbations are selected to minimize phase discontinuities.
