November 2005 doc. : IEEE 802. 22 -05/0094 r 0 Advanced Transmit Beamforming (ATB) • More than one beam transmitted per user in DL. • If overall channel delay in excess of CP length, relatively delay of each beam may be adjusted to suit CP length. • Can also be used to increase delay diversity • A repeater behaves like an additional delay path with known direction – can use ATB to mitigate extra delay introduced by repeater.
