Methods and apparatus for frequency translating repeaters

Abstract:

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for wireless communication of a phased array repeater. The apparatus may receive, from a base station, a signal for a user equipment (UE) at a first frequency. The apparatus may also adjust, at the phased array repeater, the first frequency of the signal to a second frequency, where the first frequency may be adjusted by heterodyning. Additionally, the apparatus may transmit the signal to the UE at the second frequency. The present disclosure also relates to methods and apparatus for wireless communication. The apparatus may transmit a signal for a UE at a first frequency. Further, the apparatus may determine control information for tuning a frequency adjustment of the signal at a repeater. The apparatus may also transmit, to the repeater, the control information for tuning the frequency adjustment.
