A Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) communication system is described. The system may include a transmitting device having at least two transmitting antennae, each of the at least two transmitting antenna is configured to form and/or steer directional beam signals, and a receiving device having at least two receiving antennae. The transmitting device and the receiving device are configured and disposed such that illuminated spots at the receiving device produced by the beam signals of the transmitting antennae are smaller than spatial separation between neighboring receiving antennae and/or resolution spots from the receiving antenna are smaller than spatial separation between the transmitting antennae.
