Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A method of operating a wireless repeater, comprising:
receiving, from a MIMO base station that is simultaneously communicating with MIMO user equipment device via a first downlink MIMO spatial channel corresponding to a first path from the MIMO base station to the MIMO user equipment device, downlink information to be simultaneously communicated to the MIMO user equipment device via a second downlink MIMO spatial channel corresponding to a second path from the MIMO base station through the wireless repeater to the MIMO user equipment device;
transmitting the received downlink information to the MIMO user equipment device via the second downlink MIMO spatial channel; and
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.
