Patent ID: 8098990

Claim:
A network system, comprising: a wireless base station integrated with an optical line terminal in a single chassis at a central office of a service provider to permit resource sharing between the wireless base station and the optical line terminal, the wireless base station being connected to the optical line terminal through a chassis backplane and sharing a common modulator and receiver with the optical line terminal, wherein the wireless base station is configured to provide portable and fixed services to customers; and a passive optical network coupled to the wireless base station at the central office to provide a link to extend an antenna for wireless operations of the wireless base station to a remote site such that a wireless signal from the wireless base station is transmitted in parallel with a passive fiber network signal through the link, wherein wavelength-division multiplexing is employed to transmit the wireless signal to an area, and sub-carrier modulation multiplexing is employed to distribute the wireless signal to receivers within the area, wherein the wireless base station transmits gain control and frequency information to the remote site for adjusting a configuration of a power amplifier and a clock synthesizer at the remote site.
