Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a host node device having a terminal interface that receives downstream channel signals from a communication network and sends upstream channel signals to the communication network. An access point repeater launches the downstream channel signals as guided electromagnetic waves on a guided wave communication system and to extract a first subset of the upstream channel signals from the guided wave communication system. A radio wirelessly transmits the downstream channel signals to at least one client node device and to wirelessly receive a second subset of the upstream channel signals from the at least one client node device. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Claim (Index 19):
A host node device of a distributed antenna system, the host node device comprising:\n a terminal interface configured to receive first channel signals from a communication network and send second channel signals to the communication network, wherein the first channel signals and the second channel signals are formatted to facilitate reception and retransmission by the distributed antenna system without requiring either an analog to digital conversion or a digital to analog conversion, the distributed antenna system including a plurality of client node devices having a plurality of first antennas and a plurality of mini-repeaters having a plurality of second antennas; at least one access point repeater, operating without either the analog to digital conversion or the digital to analog conversion, configured to launch the first channel signals to the plurality of mini-repeaters via a guided wave communication path and to extract, via the guided wave communication path, a first subset of the second channel signals from the plurality of mini-repeaters; and a radio, operating without either the analog to digital conversion or the digital to analog conversion, configured to wirelessly transmit the first channel signals to at least one client node device over a free space wireless communication path via a third antenna and to wirelessly receive a second subset of the second channel signals via the free space wireless communication path from the at least one client node device via the third antenna.
