摘要: Distribution of management services in distributed antenna systems having a central unit and remote units configured to time-division multiplex (TDM) downlink and/or uplink signals into time slots form TDM frame signal. In this manner, collision will not occur between multiple communicated over common communications medium at the same system. Collision detection mechanism can add design complexity, cost by requiring additional components, require area on electronic boards. The signal may also be modulated carrier frequency before being combined with RF so that are within linear range shared certain components reduce area.
