A relay station comprises antennas, wireless devices corresponding to the antennas, and a controller to control an operation of the wireless devices. Each of the wireless devices includes a receiver to convert the first radio signal received by a corresponding antenna into a baseband signal, an FIR filter to assign a delay to the baseband signal; and a transmitter to convert a signal output from the FIR filter into a second radio signal transmitted from the corresponding antenna to the reception station. The controller sets a different delay amount in the FIR filter in each of the wireless devices so that the FIR filter assigns a delay, which is different from among the antennas, to the baseband signal input from the receiver in each of the wireless devices.

A first relay station capable of performing, together with a second relay station, a non-replay relay for a first radio signal transmitted from a transmitting station for a receiving station having one antenna includes an antenna, a radio and a controller. The radio includes a receiver that converts the first radio signal into a baseband signal, an FIR filter that adds a delay to the baseband signal, and a transmitter that converts the signal output from the FIR filter into a second radio signal transmitted from the antenna to the receiving station. The controller ensures that the second radio signals transmitted from the respective antennas of the first and second relay stations have different delays, and that the FIR filter The delay is set in the FIR filter.

Various embodiments are described that relate to radio beamforming waveform transmission. Transmission can occur, for example, in three manners. The first manner is time-based where waveform transmission is staggered at the same frequency. The second manner is frequency-based where different frequencies are used at one time. This third manner is a combination of time and frequency such that simultaneous transmission occurs, but at different times different frequencies are used.
