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;
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 a destination device through a second link without de-modulating the first data stream; and
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 to minimize an interference between the incoming signal stream and the outgoing signal stream, respectively, through the phase shifting.
