Abstract: Controller provides signals to controlled nodes and includes first channel interface coupled to first controlled node and second channel interface coupled to second controlled node. Controller discovers which channel interface is coupled to which controlled node by communicating first measurement request signal from first channel interface toward first controlled node; communicating second measurement request signal from second channel interface toward second controlled node; communicating power level request signal from a channel interface to first/second controlled nodes; receiving set of power levels from both first/second controlled nodes in response to power level request signal; determining that first controlled node is more strongly signal-coupled with first channel interface than second controlled node when first power level received from first controlled node is higher; and determine that second controlled node is more strongly signal-coupled with first channel interface than first controlled node when first power level received from second controlled node is higher.

Abstract: Systems and methods for IP communication over a distributed antenna system transport are provided. In one embodiment, a method for providing Ethernet connectivity over a distributed antenna system comprises receiving internet protocol (IP) formatted data from an internet protocol device coupled to a remote unit of a distributed antenna system; sampling wireless radio frequency (RF) signals received at the remote unit to produce digitized RF samples; generating a serial data stream for output to a host unit of the distributed antenna system, the serial data stream further comprising a multiple-timeslot communication frame providing a first partition of bandwidth for transporting the digitized RF samples and a second partition of bandwidth for implementing an Ethernet pipe for transporting the IP formatted data.
