Abstract
A method and system for calibrating transmit and receive antenna patterns for time division duplex (TDD) is described. A station in a communications network comprises at least two antennas configured to operate together for both transmitting and receiving modes. A phase setting difference between the transmit and receive antenna patterns may be determined and used to determine a relative amplitude setting for the transmit antenna pattern and/or a relative amplitude setting for the receive antenna pattern.
