Abstract
We proposed a simplified method that reduces the complexity of operation of the beamforming technique in a mobile communication system. The proposed algorithm provides suitable weight vectors for the required system design. We can also make the conversion map from the information of the users´ direction to the obtained weight vector from the algorithm. We showed one result that applies the proposed algorithm in mobile multimedia access communications. Simulations showed that the obtained weights had a strong characteristic for the interference reduction and the operation according to the proposed algorithm reduced the calculation load
