Abstract:
A system includes a transmitting module, a mapping module, and an updating module. The transmitting module transmits a first set of data streams using N subcarriers when a wireless device operates in a first mode. The transmitting module transmits a second set of data streams using M subcarriers when the device operates in a second mode. N and M are integers greater than or equal to 1. The mapping module maps the first set of data streams to a first set of antennas of the device based on a first set of mapping values and maps the second set of data streams to a second set of antennas of the device based on a second set of mapping values. The updating module generates the second set of mapping values based on the first set of mapping values when the device transitions from the first mode to the second mode.
