The embodiments herein disclose an indoor personal relay which has a wireless interface with the BS, which is effec tive in both cost and technology terms. The indoor personal relay, as disclosed herein is an estimate and forward relay. The relay 101 as disclosed herein does not perform any additional channel decoding/encoding on the data that it receives from the UE or BS. Embodiments disclosed herein enable the relevant UEs to have a high SINR link with the relay. This, in turn, translates to a better effective link quality between the UE and BS and higher indoor rates, which otherwise may have been not as good as a consequence of poor direct link between the UE and the BS. This relay is effectively transparent to the UE. The deployment of relays also implies minimal impact on UE IOT.
