Original Abstract Submitted

methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. wireless communications systems may support communications between various network nodes via repeaters to extend coverage to areas that may be otherwise uncovered. a repeater may forward a signal using a circular polarization type. a receiving network node may receive a signal transmitted with a circular polarization type using a linear antenna configuration without a risk of the signal being orthogonal to the linear antenna configuration, and therefore not received by the receiving network node. a repeater may report, to a control entity, a capability of the repeater to forward signals using a set of one or more polarization types (e.g., including at least one circular polarization type), and in response the repeater may receive scheduling information indicating for the repeater to forward a signal in a given communication resource using a particular polarization type (e.g., a particular circular polarization type).
