Abstract

Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, cooperation of multiple beams for transmission is provided by identifying at least two beams among multiple beams that are dominant for a user, determining if there is any beam collision between the at least two beams, and, if there is beam collision between the at least two beams, delaying scheduling on one or more weaker ones of the at least two beams for other users and combining the two or more beams for transmission to the user. Alternatively, cooperation of multiple beams for transmission is provided by, if there is beam collision between the at least two beams, muting one or more weaker ones of the at least two beams and transmitting to the user with a stronger one of the at least two beams.
