    摘要: A system and method for overriding Carrier-Sense-Multiple-Access/Collision-Avoidance (CSMA/CA) and virtual carrier sense, without harming the traffic that occupies the channel is described herein. Further provided herein are measurements and qualifying criteria for performing the aforementioned channel sharing. The system and method may be based, for example, on opportunistic spatial isolation of nodes from each other and selectively implementing ultra-fast link adaptation.

The system may include: a plurality of antennas having tunable phases and configured for both transmitting and receiving; a plurality of radio circuits configured to transmit and receive via said antennas in a time division duplex (TDD) communication protocol; and a computer processor configured to calculate a weight setting difference between the transmit and the receive antenna pattern, wherein the antenna pattern is a peak-null pattern of the plurality of antennas operating together. The calibration value may enable the calibrated communication device to apply channel reciprocity to the beam-forming and/or nulling applications.

    摘要: A mobile device in a (e.g., full rank N×N) MIMO system is augmented by a plurality of kn antennae coupled to at least one of N beamformers such that the total number of antennae M=Σn=1n=N is greater than the total number of beamformers N. A highest gain anchor (e.g., optimal) antenna set may be selected from among a plurality of antenna sets, each antenna set comprising a different one of the kn antennae for each nth beamformer. The phase(s) of the non-selected kn−1 antennae may be set to align with the phase of the selected anchor antenna for each nth beamformer. Using TDD communication, the highest gain anchor antenna set for transmitting during the uplink periods may be determined using information measured by at least some of the plurality of M antennae while receiving during one or more downlink periods.
