Claim Text:
1. A signal conditioning system for a distributed antenna network, the system comprising: a donor antenna in a first location receiving a downlink radio frequency signal from a radio frequency source; a service antenna in a second location different from said first location; a first amplifier positioned proximately to said service antenna in said second location, said first amplifier receiving said downlink radio frequency signal from said donor antenna, amplifying a power level of said downlink signal transmitted from said donor antenna, and transmitting an amplified downlink radio frequency signal to said service antenna, wherein said service antenna transmits said amplified downlink radio frequency signal to an end user device, said end user device transmitting an uplink radio frequency signal back to said service antenna; a second amplifier positioned proximately to said donor antenna in said first location apart from said first amplifier in said second location, said second amplifier receiving said uplink radio frequency signal from said service antenna; a first multiplexor establishing an electronic communications link between said donor antenna and said first amplifier; a second multiplexor establishing an electronic communications link between said service antenna and said second amplifier; and optical fiber between said service antenna and said second amplifier, said optical fiber transmitting said uplink radio frequency signal from said user device to said second amplifier, and coaxial cable between said second amplifier and said donor antenna, said coaxial cable transmitting an amplified uplink signal to said donor antenna.
