Abstract:
1. A method of operating a wireless communication system for voice and data signals, comprising: establishing a local communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between a local handset and a local communication docking bay within a same microcell via a signal extender; establishing an extended communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between an extended handset and an extended communication docking bay located within different microcells positioned within a same macrocell via signal extenders and a network extender; establishing a distant communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between a distant handset and a distant communication docking bay located within different microcells positioned within different macrocells via signal extenders and network extenders; and asynchronously transmitting and receiving half-duplex signals over the communication paths using pairs of assigned communication path frequencies stabilized by a GPS-based frequency reference source.
