Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving, by a network element of a distributed antenna system, a reference signal, a control channel and a first modulated signal at a first carrier frequency, the first modulated signal including first communications data provided by a base station and directed to a mobile communication device. The instructions in the control channel direct the network element of the distributed antenna system to convert the first modulated signal at the first carrier frequency to the first modulated signal in a first spectral segment. The reference signal is received at an out of band frequency relative to the control channel. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 15):
A device, comprising:\n a base station interface configured to receive from a base station a first modulated signal in a first spectral segment for transmission to a mobile communication device, wherein the first modulated signal conforms to a signaling protocol; and a transceiver configured to convert the first modulated signal in the first spectral segment to the first modulated signal in a second spectral segment based on a mixing of the first modulated signal with a local oscillator signal and without modifying the signaling protocol of the first modulated signal, wherein the transceiver is further configured to transmit instructions in a control channel to direct a network element of a distributed antenna system to convert the first modulated signal in the second spectral segment to the first modulated signal in a selected spectral segment and to transmit a first reference signal with the first modulated signal in the second spectral segment to the network element of the distributed antenna system for wireless distribution of the first modulated signal to the mobile communication device in the first spectral segment, the first reference signal having a phase and frequency corresponding to the local oscillator signal, wherein the first reference signal is transmitted at an out of band frequency relative to the control channel.
