    Abstract: A telecommunications system is provided that can re-sample a digitized signal at a resample rate that is based on one or more factors to better utilize bandwidth. The factors can include the bandwidth of the signal that the digitized signal represents, the amount of bandwidth owned or used by the carrier, the full bandwidth of the designated RF band, the bandwidth of the serial link, the frame length of the serial link, the segmentation of the frames on the serial link, and the capability of the equipment at the receiving end of a serial link. The re-sampled signal can be transmitted to another unit that is remote to the unit transmitting the signal. The other unit can include a re-sampling device that restores the re-sampled signal to a digital signal that can be converted to an analog signal for wireless transmission.

    Abstract: Certain aspects involve a wideband remote unit. The wideband remote unit can include one or more antennas and an analog-to-digital converter (“ADC”). The antenna can receive wideband signals. The wideband signals can include an uplink RF signal and a leaked downlink RF signal. The uplink RF signal can have an uplink signal power at or near a noise level. The leaked downlink RF signal can have a downlink signal power greater than the uplink signal power. The ADC can convert the received wideband signals to digital RF signals representing the uplink signal and the downlink signal. The wideband remote unit can transmit the digital RF signals to a unit of a DAS that is in communication with a base station.

    Abstract: One embodiment is directed to an open radio access network (O-RAN) distributed antenna system (DAS) that comprises a central access node (CAN) configured to communicatively couple at least one O-RAN distributed unit (O-DU) to the O-RAN DAS, where the O-DU is configured to communicate with a single O-RAN remote unit (O-RU) entity. The O-RAN DAS also includes a plurality of O-RAN remote units (O-RUs) communicatively coupled to the CAN over a fronthaul network, where the O-DU, CAN, and O-RUs are configured to natively use an O-RAN fronthaul interface to communicate fronthaul data over the fronthaul network. The CAN is configured to appear to the O-DU as the single O-RU entity for a cell served by the O-DU even though the CAN is configured to serve the cell using multiple O-RUs that form a simulcast group for that cell. One or more CANs can be used. Other embodiments are disclosed.

    Abstract: One embodiment is directed to a universal digital card (UDC) for use in a node of a distributed antenna system (DAS). The UDC is configured to convert data between an external interface format used to communicate on an external communication link and a fronthaul interface format natively used in the DAS. The UDC is configured to be selectively used either as: a donor card to communicatively couple the node to one or more base station entities via the external digital interface or a distribution card to communicatively couple the node to one or more non-DAS nodes, hubs, switches, or remote radio heads or one or more other DAS nodes access points.
