System and method for wireless communication of uncompressed high definition video data using beambook-constructed beamforming signals

摘要

A system and method for generating a number of candidate beamforming vectors for transmission of high definition video data over a wireless medium is disclosed. In one embodiment the system comprises a memory configured to store a plurality of candidate beamforming vectors and a processor for executing software configured to i) determine the number (N) of transmitter antennas and the number (Q) of candidate beamforming vectors to be constructed, ii) provide a discrete Fourier transform (DFT) matrix comprising Q rows and Q columns, iii) select N rows of the DFT matrix, and iv) generate an abridged matrix using the selected N rows, wherein each column of the abridged matrix is configured to be used as a candidate beamforming vector for transmission of a high definition video data signal.
