Abstract:
A method for transporting communications signals includes receiving an analog IF signal at a first unit. The analog IF signal includes a first carrier having a first frequency and a first bandwidth and a second carrier having a second frequency different from the first frequency and a second bandwidth. The analog IF signal is converted to a digitally sampled IF signal having the first carrier located in a first Nyquist zone, the second carrier located in a second Nyquist zone, an image of the first carrier located in a third Nyquist zone, and an image of the second carrier located in the third Nyquist zone. The image of the first carrier and the image of the second carrier is transmitted from the first unit to a second unit, where the image of the first carrier and the image of the second carrier is then converted to the analog IF signal.
