Abstract:
A switching control module can optimize time division duplexing operations of a distributed antenna system (“DAS”). The switching control module can include a measurement receiver and a processor. The measurement receiver can measure signal powers of downlink signals in a downlink path of the DAS. The processor can determine start times for downlink sub-frames transmitted via the downlink path based on downlink signal powers measured by the measurement receiver exceeding a threshold signal power. The processor can identify a clock setting that controls a timing of switching signals used for switching the DAS between an uplink mode and a downlink mode. The processor can statistically determine a switching time adjustment for the clock setting based on switching time differentials between the clock setting and the start times. The processor can update the clock setting based on the switching time adjustment.

Claim (Index 14):
The method of  claim 13 , calculating the clock setting adjustment comprises:\n determining start times or end times for respective downlink sub-frames transmitted via the downlink path, wherein the processor determines each start time or end time based on the signal power measured by a measurement receiver exceeding a threshold signal power; and statistically determining the switching time adjustment from multiple switching time differentials, wherein each of the switching time differentials comprises a respective difference between the initial clock setting and a respective start time or end time.
