Precoding method and precoder for cross-polarized antenna array
The present invention provides a precoding method for a cross-polarized antenna array, the cross-polarized antenna array comprising a first group of coplanar polarized antennas and a second group of coplanar polarized antennas, the method comprising the following steps: generating, for at least one layer of data stream, a feedback codebook comprising a plurality of codewords; receiving a selection of the codeword in the feedback codebook; determining a corresponding codeword from the feedback codebook according to the received selection; generating a precoding matrix based on the determined codeword to precode the at least one layer of data stream; wherein each codeword in the feedback codebook comprises a first coefficient portion corresponding to a first group of coplanar polarized antennas and a second coefficient portion corresponding to the second group of coplanar polarized antennas, and there is a complex scaling relation between the coefficients in the first coefficient portion and the second coefficient portion corresponding to the same layer of data stream. Correspondingly, the present invention further provides a precoder for a cross-polarized antenna array.
