Zusammenfassung:A communication system for point to multipoint communications by grouping client devices based on associated modes is provided. In one example implementation, point to multipoint communication improvements are achieved by grouping a plurality of client devices by their optimal modes for communication. For example, the communication system can determine, based on channel quality indicators (CQIs) that two client devices of a plurality of client devices are associated with an optimal first mode of a modal antenna. The system can group the two client devices into a first group, the first group associated with communication using the first mode of the modal antenna. The modal antenna can communicate with the first group using the first mode of a modal antenna during a single frame of communication.
