ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of the present invention can be used to efficiently transmit access control and traffic information on separate spatial channels. In one embodiment, the invention includes assigning a conventional channel and a first training sequence to a first remote radio and a second training sequence to a second remote radio. Thereafter, the invention can include communicating with the first remote radio on a first spatial channel occupying the conventional channel using the first training sequence, and communicating with the second remote radio on a second spatial channel occupying the same conventional channel using the second training sequence.
