Abstract:
1. A digital-analog radio transceiver for providing digital transport of signals on a radio-frequency (RF) distributed antennal system, the transceiver comprising: a receive path circuit including an RF reception interface coupled to an analog-to-digital converter, the analog-to-digital converter receiving a down-converted analog RF spectrum from the RF reception interface and producing a digitized RF spectrum at an input sampling rate; a logic device coupled to the receive path circuit and receiving the digitized RF spectrum at the input sampling rate, the logic device producing a first set of baseband data samples at a first sampling rate, the first set of baseband data samples corresponding to a first spectral region of the analog RF spectrum, the logic device further producing a second set of baseband data samples at a second sampling rate, the second set of baseband data samples corresponding to a second spectral region of the analog RF spectrum; wherein the logic device maps the first set of baseband data samples at the first sampling rate to a first set of timeslots of a serial data stream transport frame and maps the second set of baseband data samples at the second sampling rate to a second set of timeslots of the transport frame.
