1. An access node comprising:
- a transmitter;
a storage device; and
a processor configured to execute instructions stored on the storage device such that when executed, cause the transmitter to;
transmit an indication corresponding to one of a plurality of relay nodes to a user agent;
transmit a first transmission to the user agent, the first transmission containing a first data; and
transmit an instruction to the user agent to instruct the user agent to enable combining, wherein the user agents separately demodulates portions of the first transmission and a second transmission containing a second data from the one of a plurality of relay nodes and combines portions of the first and second data.

Abstract
A user agent capable of carrying out autonomous combining. The user agent can be implemented as a processor configured to promote receiving a first signal from an access node and a second signal from a relay node. The processor may be further configured to combine the first and second signals.
