How multi layer map to different beams in LTE Beamforming
I understand for SU-MIMO Beamforming single layer maps to all antennas with phase shift applied to create beam. Also I understand in this case all beams will be carrying same signal (say s1).
But in ...

What is the transmission frequency of mimo antennas?
I was wondering what is the operating frequency of different antenna's in a MIMO system? Do they work in the same band or separate band that the LTE(22 bands) assigned with?
Thank you.

Why is LTE either FDD or TDD?
In LTE systems, up- and downlink are duplexed either using FDD or TDD. Why has this not been designed to utilize the same multiplexing technique as used for the downlink (OFDMA)? Resource blocks could ...
