Abstract:
1. A method for wireless communication, the method comprising: in a wireless communication device comprising a body and a plurality of remote RF modules within said body of said wireless communication device amplifying IF signals with a power amplifier in a final amplification stage to create amplified IF signals that are analog signals, the IF signals having been upconverted from baseband signals; configuring one or more antennas in said plurality of remote RF modules based on a measured signal characteristic, wherein each of said plurality of remote RF modules receive the amplified IF signals via one or more coaxial lines within said body of said wireless communication device; directly upconverting the amplified IF signals to RF; communicating low frequency control signals via the one or more coaxial lines for the plurality of remote RF modules; and communicating time division duplexed RF signals, via said one or more antennas, with one or more devices that are external to said wireless communication device based on said configuring.
