FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: method involves determining individual statistics for a plurality of channel tap coefficients of a communication channel between a transmitting station and a receiving terminal; and individually quantising said plurality of channel tap coefficients at corresponding quantisation bit rates which are determined based on said statistics to generate quantised channel tap coefficients, wherein the total number of bits allocated to said plurality of channel tap coefficients is fixed; and transmitting said quantised channel tap coefficients from the receiving terminal to the transmitting station.
EFFECT: implementing methods of compressing channels status feedback, which are adapted for different channel tap distributions.
