Abstract

Systems and methods are described to create radio daisy chains for convenient and aesthetically pleasing high-density radio deployments.

Claims (15)

1. A system comprising:

first and second wireless transceivers enclosed within a tube;

first and second wireline connections threaded through the tube;

wherein the first wireline connection transmits/receives digital baseband data to/from the first wireless transceiver and the second wireline connection transmits/receives digital baseband data to/from the second wireless transceiver,

wherein the first and second wireless transceivers convert the digital baseband data into radio frequency (RF) signals, and

wherein the first wireline connection is coupled to the first wireless transceiver and the second wireline connection is coupled between the first and second wireless transceiver in a daisy-chain configuration;

wherein the first and second wireless transceivers are to transmit different wireless waveforms based on the data received from the wireline connections.

2. The system in claim 1 further comprising the second wireless transceiver coupled through one or more wireline connections to one or more additional wireless transceivers.

3. A method for transmitting wireless signals comprising:

enclosing a first and second wireless transceivers within a tube,

threading first and second wireline connections through the tube, and transmitting/receiving digital baseband data over the first wireline connection to/from the first wireless transceiver and transmitting/receiving digital baseband data over the second wireline connection to/from the second wireless transceiver,

wherein the first and second wireless transceivers convert the digital baseband data into radio frequency (RF) signals, and

wherein the first wireline connection is coupled to the first wireless transceiver and the second wireline connection is coupled between the first and second wireless transceiver in a daisy-chain configuration;

wherein the first and second wireless transceivers are to transmit different wireless waveforms based on the data received from the wireline connections.

4. The method of claim 3 wherein the second wireless transceiver is coupled through one or more wireline connections to one or more additional wireless transceivers.
