Abstract
Methods, apparatuses and computer-readable storage media perform phasing of a first array including one or more antenna elements and phasing of a second array including one or more antenna elements to provide a combined radiation pattern for the first and second arrays, the first array having a first radiation pattern and the second array having a second radiation pattern, wherein the first radiation pattern is substantially orthogonal to the second radiation pattern. The combined radiation pattern is controlled in a first dimension based upon an uplink channel measurement. The combined radiation pattern is controlled in a second dimension based upon a precoding feedback from a user equipment (UE).
