Claim 21:
22. A radio access network (RAN) comprising:
a plurality of antennas or wireless transceiver devices (BTSs) distributed throughout a coverage area without cells, all sharing the same cell identifier (cell ID);
wherein the RAN is configured to choose a first subset of BTSs and a first subset of user equipment devices (UEs) for downlink and uplink data communications based on the spatial diversity between the UEs and BTSs; and
wherein the RAN is configured to exploit interference among the BTSs to create a plurality of concurrent non-interfering downlink (DL) or uplink (UL) data links, including control channel links, between the first subset BTSs and the first subset of UEs within the same frequency band.
