X-mimo systems with multi-transmitters and multi-receivers
First Claim
1. A method for receiving a wireless transmission of a plurality of data streams in a wireless communication system having a plurality of nodes, each node having multiple antennas, the method comprising:
- receiving first and second data streams from respective first and second nodes at a receiver node;
causing said receiver node to generate a receive filter for decoding each of the received data streams; and
causing said receiver node to transmit receive filter information for each of said first and second data streams, said receive filter information facilitating precoding of said first and second data streams for simultaneous transmission within a common frequency band to said receiver node.

Abstract
A method and apparatus for transmitting and receiving a wireless transmission of a plurality of data streams in a wireless communication system having a plurality of nodes is disclosed. Each node has multiple antennas. The method involves receiving first and second data streams from respective first and second nodes at a receiver node, causing the receiver node to generate a receive filter for decoding each of the received data streams, and causing the receiver node to transmit receive filter information for each of the first and second data streams, the receive filter information facilitating precoding of the first and second data streams for simultaneous transmission within a common frequency band to the receiver node.
