1. A method comprising:

  • transmitting a calibration signal, using an array of antenna elements of a first radio, to a second radio;

    receiving, at the first radio, a downlink spatial signature related signal from the second radio containing information related to a second radio downlink spatial signature, the information being calculated using the calibration signal;

    determining a second radio downlink spatial signature using the downlink spatial signature related signal;

    determining a second radio uplink spatial signature using an uplink spatial signature signal from the second radio to the first radio;

    determining a calibration function using the second radio downlink spatial signature and the second radio uplink spatial signature; and

    determining a third radio downlink weight vector for a third radio using a third radio uplink weight vector and the calibration function.
