Title: Cooperative components in a wireless feeder network
Inventor: LOGOTHETIS ANDREW
IPC: H04W76/00
Filed: 2012-03-13
Abstract: A method of operating a wireless feeder network used to couple access base stations of an wireless access network with a communications network is disclosed. The wireless feeder network comprises feeder base stations FBS coupled to the communications network and feeder terminals FTR coupled to associated access base stations of the access network. A group of wireless network components form elements of a feeder cluster and the elements of the feeder cluster are connected by an additional wired or wireless communications resource 66 configured to be operated in parallel with the wireless resource of the wireless feeder network. Both a primary and secondary element of the feeder cluster seek to decode at least one resource block allocated to the primary clement for reception of data.
