Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 20:
21. A wireless repeater, comprising:
one or more processors coupled to one or more memories having instructions stored thereon that are configured to cause the wireless repeater to carry out the method of operating a MIMO user equipment device, including:
receiving downlink information from a MIMO base station that is simultaneously communicating with the MIMO user equipment device via a first downlink MIMO spatial channel corresponding to a first path between the MIMO user equipment device and the MIMO base station, wherein the downlink information from the MIMO base station is simultaneously communicated with the MIMO user equipment device via a second downlink MIMO spatial channel corresponding to a second path between the MIMO user equipment device and the MIMO base station as provided by a wireless repeater;
wherein the first and the second downlink MIMO spatial channels correspond to first and second MIMO spatial layers for MIMO communication between the MIMO base station and the MIMO user equipment device; and
wherein the wireless repeater is unincluded in the first path and the wireless repeater is included in the second path.
