1. A method, comprising:
in a relay device that comprises a plurality of antenna arrays:
configuring a first beamforming setting for a first set of antenna arrays of the plurality of antenna arrays of the relay device to establish a first link between the relay device and a source device,
configuring a second beamforming setting for a second set of antenna arrays of the plurality of antenna arrays of the relay device to establish a second link between the relay device and a destination device, wherein configuring the first beamforming and the second beamforming comprises phase shifting, by an antenna array of the plurality of antenna arrays, an incoming signal stream and an outgoing signal stream by a different value for each element within the first set of antenna arrays and the second set of antenna arrays, respectively; and
receiving a first data stream with a first beam pattern from the source device through the first link and forwarding a second data stream with a second beam pattern to the destination device through the second link without de-modulating the first data stream.
