Patent ID: 11637621

Abstract:
One embodiment is directed to a repeater system for use with a Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) base station. The repeater system includes repeater circuitry configured to switch between a downlink mode and an uplink mode. The repeater circuitry is configured to determine basic time-division duplexing (TDD) parameters for a 5G NR cell served by the 5G NR base station. The repeater circuitry is configured to determine timing of 5G NR time-division duplexing of the 5G NR cell based at least in part on correlating a waveform of a downlink signal with one or more of: a 5G NR Primary Synchronization Signal expected to be in the downlink signal as indicated by at least some of the basic TDD parameters and a 5G NR Secondary Synchronization Signal expected to be in the downlink signal as indicated by at least some of the basic TDD parameters.
