Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A device, comprising:
a donor side including a donor receive antenna and a donor transmit antenna, the donor receive antenna being coupled to first receive intermediate frequency (IF) circuitry included in a first IF chain, and the donor transmit antenna being coupled to first transmit IF circuitry included in a second IF chain; and
an access side including an access transmit antenna and an access receive antenna, the access transmit antenna being coupled to second transmit IF circuitry included in the first IF chain, and the access receive antenna being coupled to second receive IF circuitry included in the second IF chain,
wherein the first IF chain is configured to enable the access transmit antenna to transmit signals based on signals received via the donor receive antenna,
wherein the second IF chain is configured to enable the donor transmit antenna to transmit signals based on signals received via the access receive antenna,
wherein the first receive IF circuitry and the first transmit IF circuitry are physically separated from one another, and the second receive IF circuitry and the second transmit IF circuitry are physically separated from one another, and
wherein the first IF chain and the second IF chain are configured to receive signals and transmit signals independently of one another.
