Abstract: We generalize the Wigner scheme for constructing the relativistic fields corresponding to irreducible representations of the four-dimensional Poincaré group with infinite spin. The fields are parameterized by a vector and an additional commuting vector or spinor variable. The equations of motion for infinite-spin fields are derived in both formulations under consideration.

Keywords: unitary representations, massless infinite spin particles, relativistic fields.
