Establishing wireless communication between a train and base stations

A system for use in a transportation object to provide wireless communication, the system comprising:

• a plurality of transceivers;
• and
• one or more communication circuits configured to:
• establish a virtual multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) array for communications between the transportation object and a communication network, wherein the virtual MIMO array comprises:
• at least a network transceiver of the communication network that is in proximity to the transportation object or a path of the transportation object, and
• at least a first transceiver and a second transceiver from a plurality of transceivers in the transportation object;
• setup up communications with the network transceiver via the first transceiver;
• and
• configure the communications for use of the virtual MIMO array, wherein the configuring comprises:
• determining when the second transceiver comes within communication range of the network transceiver due to movement of the transportation object;
• and
• based on the determining, communicating at least some signals via the second transceiver using the virtual MIMO array.
