Abstract
An apparatus and a method for dividing power within a service area serviced by a pico-base transceiver station (Pico-BTS) are disclosed. The apparatus for dividing power in a Pico-BTS includes a repeater for amplifying, by a prescribed degree of amplification, a signal provided by a Pico-BTS main unit, and a power divider for controlling the amplified signal so that it is equally divided within a service area serviced by the Pico-BTS.
Claims12
An apparatus for dividing power in a pico-base transceiver station (Pico-BTS), comprising:
- a repeater for amplifying, to a prescribed degree of amplification, a signal provided by a Pico-BTS main unit;
- and
- a power divider for controlling the signal amplified by the repeater so that the signal is equally divided within a service area serviced by the Pico-BTS and a power division rate of the signal is inversely proportional to a distance from the repeater to a point at which the power-dividing takes place.
A method for dividing power in a Pico-BTS provided with a Pico-BTS main unit and a repeater for amplifying a signal to a predetermined degree of amplification, said repeater being displaced from the Pico-BTS main unit, the method comprising the steps of:
- controlling a power division rate so as to equally divide the power within a service area serviced by the Pico-BTS;
- and
- power-dividing the amplified signal depending on the controlled power division rate which is inversely proportional to a distance from the repeater to a point at which the power-dividing takes place.
An apparatus for dividing power in pico-base transceiver station (Pico-BTS), comprising:
- repeater means for receiving a signal provided by a Pico-BTS main unit and for amplifying the received signal to a prescribed degree of amplification;
- and
- power divider means for controlling the amplified signal so that it is equally divided within a service area serviced by the Pico-BTS and a power division rate of the signal is inversely proportional to a distance from the repeater to a point at which the power-dividing takes place.
A method for dividing power in a Pico-BTS, comprising the steps of:
- providing a Pico-BTS main unit and a repeater for amplifying a signal provided by the Pico-BTS main unit to a prescribed degree of amplification;
- controlling a power division rate so as to equally divide the power within a service area serviced by the Pico-BTS;
- and
- power-dividing the amplified signal depending on the controlled power division rate which is inversely proportional to a distance from the repeater to a point at which the power-dividing takes place.
