  • Patent number: 7515563
    Abstract: Communications systems are disclosed having a transmitting apparatus for transmitting a signal to a receiving apparatus, the transmitting apparatus comprising transmitting means for transmitting a plurality of directional transmission beams to the receiving apparatus via different transmission paths, each transmission beam carrying a transmission signal. The transmitting apparatus may include coding means (58) for coding the transmission signals carried by the transmission beams, the coding means (58) being arranged to code the transmission signal carried by one transmission beam differently from the transmission signal carried by another transmission beam. The transmitting apparatus may receive a feedback signal (122) indicating the quality of the various transmission beams and transmit a data signal only in selected transmission beams. A time advance may be selectively applied to some of the transmission signals so that the transmission signals arrive at a receiving apparatus in time synchronism.
