Methods and systems for bridging for mobile communications systems

A system comprising:

• a first bridge node that comprises:
• a first bridge transceiver that is configured to communicate with a plurality of cell signals;
• and
• one or more circuits that are configured to associate with each cell signal of the plurality of cell signals, a corresponding first bridge link carrier frequency in a first bridge link frequency band, a corresponding second bridge link carrier frequency in a second bridge link frequency band, and one or more second bridge nodes;
• wherein the first bridge transceiver communicates with one or more second bridge nodes associated with at least one cell signal of the plurality of cell signals, at the first bridge link carrier frequency of the at least one cell signal in the first bridge link frequency band;
• and
• wherein the one or more second bridge nodes communicate with user equipment at the second bridge link carrier frequency of the second bridge link frequency band associated with the at least one cell signal.
