Abstract
To wirelessly communicate through a physical barrier, a network communication device determines uplink beamforming information and uplink power information. The network communication device wirelessly transfers the uplink beamforming information and the uplink power information to a serving communication device. The serving communication device wirelessly receives the uplink beamforming information and the uplink power information. The serving communication device receives an uplink signal from a user communication device. The serving communication device beamforms the uplink signal based on the uplink beamforming information. The serving communication device amplifies the uplink signal based on the uplink power information. The serving communication device wirelessly transfers the beamformed and amplified uplink signal to the network communication device. The network communication device wirelessly receives the beamformed and amplified uplink signal from the serving communication device. The network communication device wirelessly transfers the uplink signal to a wireless access node.
