Abstract
A distributed antenna system (DAS) includes a master unit; a plurality of remote units communicatively coupled with the master unit and distributed to provide coverage within a service area, each of the remote units remotely located from the master unit and other remote units; a coupler element coupled to receive a plurality of MIMO signals, the MIMO signals including first and second MIMO signals, the coupler element configured to: introduce a phase shift in a first portion of the first MIMO signal to generate a first phase shifted portion of the first MIMO signal; combine the first phase shifted portion with a second portion of the second MIMO signal to generate a combined MIMO signal; and present the combined MIMO signal at a first output port of the coupler element; at least one antenna coupled with each remote unit and configured to receive the combined MIMO signal for transmission.
