Apparatuses, methods, and systems for assisted channel approximation wireless communication of a supercell base station are disclosed. One apparatus includes a wireless network, wherein the wireless network includes a supercell base station comprising a plurality of antennas, a plurality of user devices, wherein the plurality of user devices is located too far away to support omnidirectional electromagnetic communication with the supercell base station, and a separate communication device located proximate to the plurality of user devices. The separate communication device operates to receive omnidirectional wireless signals from the supercell base station, characterized a transmission channel between the supercell base station and the separate communication device, and directionally transmit the characterized channel back to the base station. The supercell base station operates to directionally transmit wireless communication signals through a directional beam to the plurality of user devices based on the characterized channel.
