Abstract
Disclosed are a method and system for transmitting and receiving traffic, by a plurality of backhaul collector sites, to and from transceivers associated with sectors of a backhaul frequency reuse plan using a backhaul portion thereof. The method and system further transmit and receive traffic, at a backstretch super collector site of a backstretch cell, to and from alternate or a subset of backhaul collector sites of the plurality of backhaul collector sites surrounding the backstretch collector site.
Claims20
A method for providing in-band wireless backstretch communications for a plurality of backstretch cells comprising:
- transmitting and receiving backhaul traffic, by a plurality of backhaul collector sites, to and from transceivers associated with sectors of a frequency reuse plan using a backhaul portion thereof, and
- transmitting and receiving the backhaul traffic, at a backstretch super collector site, to and from a subset of backhaul collector sites of a plurality of backhaul collector sites adjacent to the backstretch super collector site associated with a corresponding backstretch cell.
A system for providing in-band wireless backstretch communications for a plurality of backstretch cells comprising:
- a plurality of backhaul collector sites configured to transmit and receive backhaul traffic to and from transceivers associated with sectors of a frequency reuse plan using a backhaul portion thereof;
- and
- a backstretch super collector site configured to transmit and receive the backhaul traffic to and from a subset of backhaul collector sites of a plurality of backhaul collector sites adjacent to the backstretch super collector site associated with a corresponding backstretch cell.
A backstretch super collector site for providing in-band wireless backstretch in a wireless communication system, the backstretch super collector site comprising:
- a backstretch transceiver configured to transmit and receive backhaul traffic in a backstretch cell using at least one frequency, to and from a subset of backhaul collector sites of a plurality of backhaul collector sites neighboring the backstretch transceivers;
- and
- a network router configured to route signals received by the backstretch transceivers to a network via at least one of wire, fiber or wireless connection.
