Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices are described for wireless communication. In one aspect, a method of wireless communication includes receiving, by a first wireless device, compressed beamforming information from each of a plurality of stations, the compressed beamforming information including a feedback signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) value and compressed feedback matrix. The method also includes determining a multi-user signal-to-interference-plus noise ratio (SINR) metric for each of the plurality of stations based at least in part on the received feedback SNR values and the received compressed feedback matrices.
