摘要: The present disclosure describes devices, systems, and methods for synchronizing multiple-input/multiple-output (“MIMO”) signals or other signals in telecommunication systems. Some aspects may involve transmitting signals between a head-end unit and remote units of a telecommunication system. A first delay of a signal path between the head-end unit and a first remote unit of the remote units may be determined to be greater than each delay of signal paths between the head-end unit and other remote units. Based on the first delay, the telecommunication system may be configured to delay transmission of additional signals such that the additional signals are simultaneously transmitted to another unit by either the head-end unit or the remote units.

摘要: A mobile testing system for optimizing wireless coverage in a distributed antenna system is disclosed. In some aspects, the mobile testing system includes a measurement receiver that can determine signal levels for a respective signals communicated via the distributed antenna system. A processing device of the mobile testing system can identify a subset of the signals by decoding a respective identifier encoded in each of the subset of signals. The identifiers specify that the subset of signals is targeted to at least one coverage zone in which the mobile testing system is located. A subset of signal levels is obtained by the measurement receiver that corresponds to each of the subset of signals. The processing device can generate coverage contour data based on the subset of signal levels that describes signal coverage for at least one coverage zone.

摘要: A telecommunications system may include a distortion cancellation subsystem for use with a circulator device coupling an antenna to a transmit path and a receive path. The distortion cancellation subsystem may include a correction circuit and a cancellation circuit. In some aspects, the correction circuit may include a processing device or adaptive filter to correct imperfections in transmit signal samples generated by directional couplers. The correction circuit may also include a summing device to remove receive signal components from the transmit signal samples. The cancellation circuit may receive the output signal of the correction circuit via an adaptive filter. The output of the adaptive filter may be summed with a receive signal to minimize distortion of the receive signal.

摘要: A digital repeater system for repeating RF signals can include a receiving section for receiving an RF input signal that includes a frequency band with at least one subband associated with a communication channel of a telecommunications network. The receiving section can digitize the RF input signal to obtain a digital signal. A filter device includes a digital filter with a passband for filtering the digital signal. The digital filter is configurable by setting filter coefficients. A gain control device can set the gain of at least a portion of the digital signal. A transmitting section can transmit an RF output signal and can convert the digital signal to the RF output signal for transmission. A control unit can configure the filter coefficients of the digital filter based on the gain setting of the gain control device.
