Full-Duplex Mesh Networks

A wireless network comprising:

• a first base station acting as a backhaul node, further comprising:
• a first transceiver for transmitting and receiving to and from a second base station using a single frequency band, and
• a second transceiver for transmitting and receiving to and from a third base station using the single frequency band;
• wherein the first base station, the second base station, and the third base station are configured to perform self-interference cancellation to send and receive full duplex data on the single frequency band via an X2 protocol message exchange,
• thereby enabling the creation of a wireless network via the first base station, the wireless network having both access and backhaul using only the single frequency band and providing backhaul connectivity to a plurality of mobile devices connected to the second base station and the third base station through the first base station.
