1. A method for joint wireless transmission, the method comprising:
at a primary wireless communication device, creating a first local area network including at least the primary wireless communication device and a first secondary wireless communication device;
at the primary wireless communication device, determining a transmission offset time parameter specifying a difference between a transmission time of the primary wireless communication device and a transmission time of the first secondary wireless communication device at least partially based on a location of the first secondary wireless communication device;
transmitting a first coordination signal from the primary wireless communication device to the first secondary wireless communication device, the first coordination signal specifying at least the transmission offset time parameter; and
transmitting a first portion of a wireless communication signal from the primary wireless communication device to a wireless base station that is outside of the first local area network and is remote from each of the primary wireless communication device and the first secondary wireless communication device.
