Optimal Precoder Design for Distributed Transmit Beamforming Over Frequency-Selective Channels.

We consider the problem of optimal precoder design for a multi-input single-output wideband wireless system to maximize two different figures of merit: the total communication capacity and the total received power, subject to individual power constraints on each transmit element. We show that the two optimal precoders satisfy a separation principle that reveals a simple structure for these precode...
