Abstract

The transmitter may includes an omnidirectional antenna an array of directional antennas transmitting strong signals in several narrow overlapping sectors (A-D). Over a period of time (t), the transmitted signal may be switched between the various antennas to transmit into the various sectors. Switching may follow a predetermined pattern or may be optimized to follow moving station.
