Claim Text:
1. A method comprising: sub-dividing a downlink signal into a sub-divided downlink signal having a plurality of downlink signal components in a time domain, wherein each of the plurality of downlink signal components corresponds to a respective sub-band; determining that at least one component of the plurality of downlink signal components corresponds to at least one sub-band having data to be transmitted via a distributed antenna system; generating, subsequent to determining that the at least one component from the sub-divided downlink signal corresponds to the at least one sub-band, a transformed downlink signal by performing a frequency transform on the downlink signal, wherein the transformed downlink signal represents the downlink signal in a frequency domain; determining that the at least one sub-band of the transformed downlink signal includes the data to be transmitted; and extracting the at least one sub-band from the transformed downlink signal for transmission via the distributed antenna system; wherein extracting the at least one sub-band from the transformed downlink signal comprises:
