there was a group a couple years ago that did linux drivers specifically
to resolve this.  Basically they have 2 cards one is always Tx one is
always Rx, and they can do full duplex that way.  The goal was with
802.11 (wifi) specifically and for a mesh layout specifically (although
it could be used with a single node).

802.16 (wimax) supports both TDD (half duplex) and FDD (full duplex), so
depending on what you are doing specifically you may not have to do
anything sneaky like the aforementioned linux drivers.
