Реферат: The present invention relates to an intermediate node (1, 1') which is arranged to relay information between a donor node (3, 4) and at least one served node (5, 6, 7, 8), and comprises a served antenna arrangement (9) that communicates by means of at least a first and second electrically steerable antenna radiation lobe. During a first mode of operation, all antenna radiation lobes (10, 11; 10', 11') are directed towards a first donor node (3, 3'). During a second mode of operation, the antenna radiation lobes are directed such that the intermediate node (1, 1') is in contact with both the first donor node (3, 3') and the second donor node (4, 4'). During a third mode of operation, all antenna radiation lobes (10, 11; 10', 11') are directed towards the second donor node (4, 4'). A first polarization (P1) is associated with each lobe (10, 10') directed towards the second donor node (4, 4') during the second mode of operation and a second polarization (P2) is associated with each lobe (11, 11') directed towards the first donor node (3, 3') during the second mode of operation. The present invention also relates to a corresponding method.
