Intelligent repeater interface

摘要

An intelligent repeater interface (101) connected to a non-intelligent repeater (102) is used to control trunked communications at a trunked communication site in a trunked communications system. The intelligent repeater interface (101) signal processes radio frequency signals received by or transmitted from a non-intelligent repeater. The intelligent repeater interface (101) also processes and stores control information. The control information and processed signals are interfaced (108, 109, and 110) directly to an external communication network (111, 112, and 113), without use of a separate central controller for the trunked communication site or system and without replacing the non-intelligent repeater with an intelligent repeater.
