<p>A wireless communication method in a system, for example a WiMAX system, in which subscriber stations (MS) are each operable for communication with a base station (BS), the base station being capable of performing simultaneous communications with a plurality of the subscriber stations simultaneously by exchange of packets each conforming with a layered protocol of said system. The packets have a PHY header for defining physical layer parameters and a MAC PDU for defining media access layer parameters. Communications between the subscriber stations and the base station are performed via at least one relay station (RS1#), which receives a plurality of packets from the subscriber stations (MS) and detects the MAC PDU of each of the packets. The relay station then combines the detected MAC PDUs to form a MAC PDU of at least one new packet and transmits the new packet to the base station (BS). In this way, bandwidth on the uplink from the relay station to the base station is conserved.
