Transceiver Set Selection And Communication Scheme For A Distributed Antenna System

摘要

According to one embodiment, a method includes establishing a plurality of wired connections between a plurality of nodes. The plurality of nodes include a base station and a plurality of geographically distributed remote transceivers. The base station is assigned to a first set and the base station and a first remote transceiver of the plurality of remote transceivers are assigned to a second set. Each set is configured to wirelessly transmit a respective channel reference signal. Signal quality feedback that indicates the strength of the respective channel reference signals is received from an endpoint. One of the sets is selected to use for transmitting data traffic from the base station to the endpoint based on the signal quality feedback. The method further includes transmitting data traffic from the base station to the endpoint using at least one wireless connection between the endpoint and each node of the selected set.
