Abstract: Data is to be transmitted from one transmitting point to multiple reception points in a wireless communication system. A transmitting antenna array has multiple antenna elements at the one transmitting point. Channel information is measured for each antenna element at each reception point. Antenna adjustments are determined using the measured channel information. The measured channel information from all of the users is correlated to determine weighting factors for each antenna element. The weighting factors to a point to multiple point transmission are applied prior to being radiated by each antenna element.

Abstract: Apparatus employed by a remote unit wherein a plurality of channels are received as a received signal. Each channel is associated with a code. For each of the plurality of channels, others of the plurality of channels are subtracted from the received signal and a result of that subtracting is despread as data for that channel.
