  • Coordination of backhaul beam forming in wireless communication systems
    Patent number: 7447523
    Abstract: A method and system for coordinating the use of beam forming between two communicating entities in a wireless communication system is disclosed. The two entities may communicate control information regarding their respective use of beam forming. A correction factor for at least one entity is provided wherein said entity may reduce or withhold its beam adjustment in order to correct any error measured in the alignment of its beam with respect to the beam of the other entity with which it is communicating. Adjustment parameters for adjusting the beams are selected based on conditions surrounding the communication.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 14, 2004
    Date of Patent: November 4, 2008
    Assignee: Interdigital Technology Corporation
    Inventors: Steven Jeffrey Goldberg, Kimberly Chotkowski
