Abstract
Devices, systems and methods for collaborative wireless communication in a wireless network are described. One example method includes performing, by a first node of a plurality of nodes, a communication with at least a second node of the plurality of nodes, receiving, by the first node from a destination node of the plurality of nodes, a probe, computing, based on the probe, a phase of a strongest tap of a channel estimate between the first node and the destination node, computing a phase correction based on the phase of the strongest tap and a phase difference between a first phase of the first node and a second phase of a reference node, wherein the phase difference is based on the communication, and transmitting, to the destination node, a message with the phase correction.
