At least one feature provides a way to perform point-to-multipoint
transmissions using adaptive or directional antennas while reducing
antenna pattern distortion. Generally, rather than transmitting the same
waveform to two or more receivers, an information-bearing signal is
transformed into different decorrelated waveforms and each decorrelated
waveform is transmitted to a different receiver. In one implementation,
an information-bearing signal is transformed into two decorrelated
signals such that their crosscorrelation, or autocorrelation of the
information-bearing signal, is zero or very small. Such decorrelation may
be achieved by sending a first signal to a first receiver while sending a
second signal, having a radio frequency spectrum that is the spectrally
inverted version of the first signal, to a second receiver. In another
implementation, a first signal is transmitted to a first receiver and is
also transmitted to a second receiver with a time delay.
