A wireless relaying network having a number of network nodes including a designated originating node, at least one relaying node, and at least two receiving nodes. The designated originating node transmits a pilot signal, and the relaying node(s) receives and forwards the pilot signal to the receiving nodes, each of which measures channel quality based on the received pilot signal. At least part of the receiving nodes feed information on the measured channel quality all the way back to the designated originating node, and the originating node then schedules data for transmission to at least one selected node of the receiving nodes based on the received channel quality information. Subsequently, the designated originating node transmits data to the selected receiving node(s) via the same relaying node(s) that forwarded the pilot signal. In this way, multi-user diversity scheduling is introduced to relaying networks that provides significant data rate enhancements.
