Abstract:
1. A backhaul radio comprising: a horizontally arranged backhaul radio antenna array comprising: one or more demodulator cores, wherein each demodulator core is capable of demodulating one or more of a plurality of receive symbol streams to produce one or more receive data interface streams; a plurality of receive radio frequency (RF) chains, wherein each receive RF chain is capable of converting from one of a plurality of receive RF signals to a respective one of a plurality of receive chain output signals; a frequency selective receive path channel multiplexer, interposed between the one or more demodulator cores and at least two of the plurality of receive RF chains, wherein the frequency selective receive path channel multiplexer is capable of generating the plurality of receive symbol streams from at least two of the plurality of receive chain output signals provided by said at least two of the plurality of receive RF chains; one or more modulator cores, wherein each modulator core is capable of modulating one or more transmit data interface streams to produce one or more of a plurality of transmit symbol streams; and a plurality of transmit RF chains, wherein each transmit RF chain is capable of converting from one of a plurality of transmit chain input signals to a respective one of a plurality of transmit RF signals each comprising at least one of said plurality of transmit symbol streams;
