Abstract:
1. A device for converting Universal Mobile Telecommunication System-Frequency Division Duplexing (UMTS-FDD) signals into Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) signals, comprising: a receiver unit for receiving the UMTS-FDD signals, wherein the device converts the UMTS-FDD signals received into the WLAN signals, and wherein the device further converts the UMTS-FDD signals received into signals according to a Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) standard and/or an Integrated Service Digital Network (ISDN) standard; means for providing or transmitting the WLAN signals; and means for providing or transmitting the signals according to the PSTN standard and/or the ISDN standard; wherein the device is installed at a point in a building where the UMTS-FDD signals cannot provide suitable UMTS-FDD signal coverage to an interior region of the building where there is no UMTS coverage, and wherein at said point the UMTS-FDD signals are received by the device, and from said point the device transmits the WLAN signals and the signals according to the PSTN standard and/or the ISDN standard to provide WLAN signal coverage and PSTN and/or ISDN signal coverage to a plurality of different user terminals in the interior region of the building coincidentally.
