A multibeam beamformer in combination with a decision feedback equalizer is considered for the base station in a single-cell 100-Mb/s TDMA/TDD QPSK indoor wireless network at 24 GHz. The outage rate in terms of required SNR/bit/antenna is estimated using a statistical, clustered propagation model and for beam selection diversity and two-beam combining.

A beamforming network is considered for a space-time block-coded orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing system in a high-speed indoor wireless network. We find that choosing the most powerful beams for transmission provide the best performance in the absence of interference. In the presence of interference, an iterative two-metric beam-selection method is proposed.
