NIMO (non-interfering multiple output)

A approach approach of an antenna and beamforming system, NIMO (non-interfering multiple output), is introduced that can be used to overcome bandwidth and capacity limitations on dense wireless networks. The new system combines beamforming technology with MIMO, providing a higher quality of service (QoS) and supports transparent integration with any telecommunication system. NIMO provides multiple narrow beams using a single antenna, and provides improved characteristics compared to conventional beamforming techniques such as reduced interference. Such a multibeam antenna system increases spectral efficiency, user capacity, and throughput, as well as, QoS. The improved performance, makes it ideal^{[peacock term]} for broadband wireless communications including mobile systems.
