A method for selecting at least one parameter for downlink data transmission with a mobile user equipment. The method is executable by a wireless communication base station having multiple antennas configured to communicate wirelessly with the mobile user equipment. The method receives an uplink probing signal from the mobile user equipment. The method determines a plurality of angles of arrival for a corresponding plurality of paths between the mobile user equipment and the multiple antennas. The method transmits a plurality of downlink probing signals directionally toward corresponding angles of arrival in the plurality of angles of arrival. Each downlink probing signal is a virtual antenna port with respect to the mobile user equipment. The method receives channel state information. The method composes at least one of a rank indicator (RI), precoding matrix indicator (PMI), or modulating and coding scheme (MCS) for downlink data transmission to the mobile user equipment.
