The implementation of beamforming and spatial diversity in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems reveals challenges in terms of complexity, feedback, and scenario dependencies. In this paper we discuss the differences and limitations of OFDM transmission over scenarios with different angular spread, which can viewed clearly from the base station antenna (BSA), signals departing to or arriving from the UE appear to be spread over a range of angle and evaluate the issues arising from the implementation of beam-forming and spatial diversity in OFDM systems.
