also worthy of a look see/read are the various whitepapers, et al over at Marty's company, arraycomm.com -- the world leader in multi-antenna signal processing (MAS). Their A-MAS™ software is running in more than 300,000 base stations today, in 17 countries, with client device solutions on the way. They improve wireless subscriber experiences and radio network economics through gains in coverage, client data rates, and capacity — in WiMAX, GSM, PHS, and HC-SDMA systems. ...
as an aside, my favorite (and spot-on, imho!) quote (or "Philosophical belief" as it is referred to) of Marty (who i personally know as well as his wife Arlene Harris, the founder of jitterbug.com and greatcall.com ) is:
There is no lack of spectrum, only a lack of spectral efficiency.
