Abstract:
A method and a network system capable of enhanced transmission of data signals in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication system using a double-layer coordinated beamforming are disclosed. A first layer precoding matrix is obtained from long-term channel state information between user equipment and network equipment, and a second layer precoding matrix obtained from the first layer precoding matrix and from real-time channel state information between the user equipment and the network equipment. The real-time channel state information for the second layer precoding matrix determination includes a predetermined signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR), and/or a predetermined power value associated with a single antenna of the user equipment, which are used as optimization parameters. The first and second layer precoding matrices are combined for the double-layer coordinated beamforming. The present disclosure allows to enhance the coordinated beamforming of the prior art by adding some constraints during the optimization of the second layer precoding.
