Abstract:
1. An RF connection matrix employable with a distributed antenna system, the RF connection matrix comprising: a first carrier-specific RF connection matrix module adapted to route a first downlink transmission to one or more remote antenna units for transmission on a first carrier, wherein the first carrier-specific RF connection matrix module is adapted to simulcast the first downlink transmission on the first carrier over a first group of two or more remote antenna units employing a sector identity (ID); and a second carrier-specific RF connection matrix module adapted to route a second downlink transmission to one or more remote antenna units for transmission on a second carrier, wherein the second carrier-specific RF connection matrix module is adapted to simulcast the second downlink transmission on the second carrier over a second group of two or more remote antenna units employing the sector ID, wherein at least one remote antenna unit of the second group differs from the remote antenna units of the first group.
