Patent ID: 8068803

Claim:
A method for optimizing an RF signal booster's filter bandwidth, the method comprising the acts of: (a) measuring adjacent-channel interference (ACI) for a subject RF signal having a subject frequency; (b) decreasing a current bandwidth of an RF signal filter if the measured ACI exceeds a predetermined threshold; (c) re-measuring ACI of the subject signal, following said decreasing, to determine if the ACI still exceeds the predetermined threshold; (d) repeating (b) and (c) until the ACI no longer exceeds the predetermined threshold hold; (e) measuring time delay interference (TDI) for the subject RF signal; (f) increasing the current bandwidth of the RF signal filter if the measured TDI is above a target TDI; (g) re-measuring the TDI of the subject RF signal, following said increasing, to determine if the TDI still exceeds the target TDI; and (h)) repeating (f) and (g) until the ACI no longer exceeds the predetermined threshold hold.
