- the propagation path information h for the k-th transmission beam is calculated.
- equation (14) representing the received signal when the transmission beam is used is the same as the equation (12) representing a general received signal. Therefore, the propagation path information when the transmission beam is used can also be estimated by the same method as in equation (13).
- the propagation path estimation value of the k-th beam at time t is “h (t)”. Also, the L-th beam transmission k
- the carrying route information is “h (t)”. Then the correlation between the kth beam and the Lth beam
- the coefficient p can be calculated using the following equation (16). [0045] [Equation 9] Also, the reception quality of the k-th beam can be calculated by, for example, the following equation (17) or (18).

[0051] [Equation 13] Then, the transmission apparatus estimates the correlation coefficient between the transmission beams and the quality of each transmission beam by using the pilot signal from the mobile device, assuming that the directivities of the transmission beam and the reception beam are the same. The method for selecting one or more transmit beams to be used based on the correlation coefficient between transmit beams and the quality of each beam is basically as described above.
- a base station is suitable as a transmitting station because of propagation path conditions. This is because, as shown in Fig. 4, the direction of arrival of radio waves at a mobile station is generally omnidirectional, whereas at the base station, the radio wave is almost constant due to the high antenna height. This is because the direction force arrives. In general, the angular spread of radio waves at cellular base stations is said to be 5-10 degrees. From the properties of such a propagation path, the following two cases are considered as propagation path states in which the present invention is effective.
- Radio wave reflectors scatterers
- a beam directed to the direction of the reflecting (scattering) body of each radio wave is selected.
- the second case is when the angular spread of the base station is sufficiently wide with respect to the beam width. In this case, since different elementary waves for each beam are combined and received, the correlation between the beams becomes low, and a plurality of adjacent beams are selected.
- the present invention can be applied not only to a transmission apparatus but also to MIMO signal separation in a reception apparatus. That is, using the method described in Equations (19) and (21), multiple received beams with low correlation and high communication quality are selected, and MIMO signal separation is performed using the signals of the selected multiple received beams. It can be carried out.
- any algorithm such as ZF, MMSE, or MLD described above can be used as an algorithm for MIMO signal separation.
- the present invention is particularly effective in MIMO signal separation. This is the case when the number of receive branches K is smaller than the number N of array antennas (ie, N ⁇ K).
- an arithmetic circuit that performs MIMO signal separation can process received signals up to a maximum of K branches, and if the number of array antennas N is greater than the number of branches K, the correlation is low and the reception quality is low. By selecting high K beams, MIMO signal separation can be performed most efficiently.

Further, the port allocation unit 34 guides the transmission data stream S1 to the input port 11-2 and guides the transmission data stream S2 to the input port 113. Then, the transmission data stream S1 is transmitted by the transmission beam 2 because the weight set 2 is multiplied in the multiplication circuit 12-2. The transmission data stream S2 is transmitted by the transmission beam 3 because the multiplication circuit 12-3 is multiplied by the weight set 3.
