Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to wireless communication technology, in particular, to a wireless communication method and a beamformer (Beamformer) for screening stations to perform beamforming operations. Background technique

[0002] With the popularity of wireless transmission applications, such as using Wireless Fidelity (Wireless Fidelity, WiFi) to stream high-definition movies and TV programs to laptops, or playing online games on handheld devices (such as tablet computers and smart phones) , browsing social media and watching videos, etc., the average home user often uses multiple WiFi devices to download network content at the same time, so how to increase the speed of wireless transmission is an important issue. Currently, many wireless devices operate on the 2.4GHz frequency band, such as Bluetooth (BT), Cordless Phone and other 802.11b / g / n devices, resulting in serious signal interference.

[0003] Beamforming (Beamforming) is a technology ...

Examples

Embodiment Construction

[0016] Certain terms are used in the specification and following claims to refer to particular components. Those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that hardware manufacturers may use different terms to refer to the same component. This description and the following claims do not use the difference in name as a way to distinguish components, but use the difference in function of components as a criterion for distinguishing. The "comprising" mentioned throughout the specification and the subsequent claims is an open term, so it should be interpreted as "including but not limited to". In addition, the term "coupled" herein includes any direct and indirect means of electrical connection. Therefore, if it is described that a first device is coupled to a second device, it means that the first device may be directly electrically connected to the second device, or indirectly electrically connected to the second device through other devices or connection means.
