A method of cooperative multi-antenna communication between a base station and node existing in a wireless network is provided. A cooperative multi-antenna communication method includes receiving data from at least one node of a node group that receives data from a base station, performing multiple input multiple output (MIMO) signal processing with respect to the received data, the MIMO signal processing indicating signal processing performed in a receiving end of a MIMO system, and transmitting the signal processed data to at least one target node.
