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.
