Abstract
Technology for a multi-port repeater is disclosed. The multi-port repeater can include a plurality of ports. The multi-port repeater can include one or more amplifiers coupled to the plurality of ports. The multi-port repeater can determine one or more active ports from the plurality of ports. The multi-port repeater can determine an allocation of transmit power or gain between the one or more active ports up to a composite transmit power or gain. The multi-port repeater can adjust an output power or gain of each of the one or more amplifiers based on the allocation of the transmit power or gain between the one or more active ports.
Claims40
A multi-port repeater comprising:
- a plurality of ports;
- one or more amplifiers coupled to the plurality of ports;
- and
- processing logic configured to:
- determine one or more active ports from the plurality of ports;
- determine an allocation of transmit power or gain between the one or more active ports up to a composite transmit power or gain;
- and
- adjust an output power or gain of each of the one or more amplifiers based on the allocation of the transmit power or gain between the one or more active ports.
At least one non-transitory machine readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon for configuring a power level at one or more ports of a repeater, the instructions when executed by a controller at repeater perform the following:
- determining, at the controller of the repeater, one or more server ports that are turned on, wherein the repeater includes a plurality of server ports;
- determining, at the controller of the repeater, one or more server ports that are turned on and are active;
- and
- allocating, at the controller of the repeater, downlink transmit power or gain between each of the one or more server ports that are turned on and are active.
A method of configuring a power level at one or more ports of a repeater, the method comprising:
- determining one or more active ports, wherein the repeater includes a plurality of ports;
- and
- allocating a composite transmit power or gain level between each of the active ports.
A method of configuring a power level at one or more ports of a repeater, the method comprising:
- determining one or more active server ports, wherein the repeater includes a plurality of server ports;
- and
- allocating downlink transmit power or gain between the active server ports up to a composite downlink transmit power or gain level.
