A method of operating a telecommunications repeater including a plurality of antenna modules, includes: receiving signals broadcast by a plurality of cells on their respective broadcast frequency channel, BCCH; and, performing parameter measurements on at least a portion of each of the received broadcast signals, in order to determine a cell from the plurality of cells to select. The method further includes selecting one of the antenna modules based upon results of the parameter measurements, and using only the selected antenna module for repeating incoming and/or outgoing signals from the repeater. Parameter measurements are process to determine a cell that provides the best signal coverage and the antenna module which provides the best received signals for the determined cell is selected. Parameter measurements on signals broadcast by the plurality of cells are performed at predetermined regular intervals based upon a determined rate of movement of a movable object. Parameter measurements performed on the received signals relate to the C2 parameter. Suitable for use in cruise boats where the signal quality from the outdoor environment is affected by interference, wherein prior art repeaters magnify the interference in the repeated signal. |
