Managing a network of radio frequency (RF) repeater devices
A system includes control circuitry that obtains radar data from each repeater device of a network of repeater devices. A plurality of signal propagation indicators is determined, and a three-dimensional representation of a geographical area is generated based on the obtained radar data and plurality of signal propagation indicators. A location and movement of a plurality of user devices in the geographical area is tracked and a beamforming scheme is selected for one or more repeater devices of the network of repeater devices. An out-of-band control of operations of the network of repeater devices is executed based on the generated three-dimensional representation, the selected beamforming scheme for the one or more repeater devices, and the tracked location and movement of the plurality of user devices in the geographical area, for example, to achieve high dates, less interference, and increased signal strength and gain.
DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA SYSTEM WITH HYBRID SIGNAL SOURCES
Disclosed is an in-building distributed repeater technique for distributing a wireless mobile communication signal into a building. Mobile communication signals of service carriers in communication between devices of an in-building distributed repeater system may be converted into intermediate frequency (IF) signals with adjacent frequency bands and may be transmitted or received as analog signals with compressed bandwidths through frequency division multiplexing. The service band gap spacing of Tx downstream analog IF signals transmitted by a headend unit to a remote service unit is wider than that of Rx downstream analog IF signals received from an active antenna unit.

Interference canceling by fixed division of feeder link transmission band in multiple gateway HAPS system
Interference in multi-feeder links of a same frequency between an aerial-floating type communication relay apparatus and plural gateway (GW) stations is suppressed. A transmission signal band of a feeder link is divided into plural divided frequency bands, and plural propagation path responses between plural GW stations and an antenna for feeder link of the communication relay apparatus are respectively estimated with respect to each of plural divided frequency bands, by setting a center frequency of the divided frequency band as an estimation frequency, based on a reception result of the pilot signals respectively received from the plural GW stations and separated from each other. A weight for suppressing an interference signal that causes an interference by a transmission signal transmitted from the GW station and received with a directional beam corresponding to another GW station is calculated for each of the divided frequency bands based on the plural propagation path responses. A reception signal received with the directional beam corresponding to the other GW station is multiplied by the weight corresponding to the other GW station and subtracted from the reception signal received with the directional beam corresponding to the other GW station, for each of the divided frequency bands.

Range extension in wireless local area networks
A method for associating a new end-station (end-STA) with a relay access point (R-AP) in a relay transmission. An assignment of a new identifier is transmitted to the new end-STA, wherein traffic indication map indications for the new end-STA in a beacon from the R-AP follows the transmission of the new identifier assignment. A message is sent to a root access point (AP), the message including an indication of a number of information fields in the message and at least one information field, each of the at least one information fields including an identifier of one end-STA associated with the R-AP. An acknowledgement is received from the root AP on a condition that the root AP correctly receives the message and associates an identifier of the end-STA with an identifier of the R-AP.
