Abstract

In a wireless communication relay, a network transceiver wirelessly detects wireless access points. The network transceiver beamforms wireless test signals and wirelessly transmits the beamformed wireless test signals to the wireless access points. A user transceiver in the relay wirelessly detects cross-relay interference levels when the network transceiver wirelessly transmits the beamformed wireless test signals to the wireless access points. The user transceiver transfers the cross-relay interference levels for the wireless access points to the network transceiver. The network transceiver selects one of the wireless access points based on the cross-relay interference levels for the wireless access points. The network transceiver wirelessly exchanges user data with the selected one of the wireless access points and exchanges the user data with the user transceiver. The user transceiver exchanges the user data with the network transceiver and wirelessly exchanges the user data with the wireless user devices.
