Method and system to dynamically associate spatial layers to beams in a FWA network operating in the millimeter-wave frequency range. A base station and a CPE are willing to wirelessly transmit and receive data through a wireless channel of the FWA network, the base station having beamforming capabilities henceforth generating multiple wireless beams. The base station performs all baseband wireless functions related for creating, keeping and managing the connections between the base station and the CPE at baseband level, wherein information is handled in the form of up to M spatial layer signals, and with no built-in capabilities for creation, detection or management of the beams. The base station also performs all necessary RF functions at millimeter-wave frequencies, including beamforming and conversion from complex baseband signals to RF signals and vice versa, and also couples the RF signals to the wireless channel.
