SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CAPACITY MANAGEMENT FOR A DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA SYSTEM

摘要

Systems and methods for capacity management for a distributed antenna system are provided. In one embodiment, a distributed antenna system comprises: a host unit; a plurality of remote antenna units coupled to the host unit via a plurality of communication links, wherein the plurality of communication links transport a radio frequency (RF) carrier signal between the host unit and at least one wireless subscriber unit via the plurality of remote units; and at least one capacity processor, wherein the capacity processor alters at least a portion of the RF carrier signal such that the at least one wireless subscriber unit can utilize a bandwidth of the RF carrier signal that is less than a full available bandwidth of the RF carrier signal.
