US Patent 10355762 System and method for adaptive beamforming communication

A wireless communication system includes a controller to control a plurality of antenna subarrays of a first wireless communication device to form a plurality of directional beams to communicate a beamformed diversity wireless transmission between the first wireless communication device and a set of second wireless communication devices over a plurality of communication channels. The controller assigns at least some antenna subarrays to at least some second wireless communication devices using a greedy optimization with a relaxation parameter and controls the plurality of antenna subarrays according to the assignment.
