Abstract:
When a base station has reason to increase the extent of MU-MIMO service that it can provide or in other contexts, the base station could select at least one of the base station's served UEs to have its MIMO rank reduced, with the selecting being based at least on a determination that the selected UE has had a threshold high rate of data retransmissions such as a threshold high rate of HARQ retransmissions for instance.
