ABSTRACT:
A method for communication is disclosed and may include performing, using one or more processors and/or circuits, selecting, from a plurality of signal receiving users in a multiuser communication system, a first signal receiving user having a channel gain that is greater than a channel gain of each corresponding signal receiving user of a remaining portion of the plurality of signal receiving users. A second signal receiving user may be selected from the remaining portion of the plurality of signal receiving users, based on a feedback information comprising orthogonality of a channel direction of the second signal receiving user with respect to a channel direction of the first user. The feedback information may include a channel gain of the second signal receiving user. The communication system may include a frequency division duplex (FDD) multiuser communication system.
