Abstract
A repeater with redundancy functions for a wireless communication system is provided. The repeater includes downlink repeater circuitry, uplink repeater circuitry, a detection function, at least one memory and a controller. The detection function is configured to detect conditions of communications between the base stations and the repeater. The at least one memory is used to store a primary configuration that sets out parameters for interfacing communications between the repeater and a primary base station of the base stations and at least one secondary configuration that sets out parameters for interfacing communications between the repeater and at least one secondary base station of the base stations and/or a secondary signal line of signal lines between the repeater and the primary base station. The controller is configured to implement the at least one secondary configuration to communicate with an associated secondary base station upon the detection function detecting abnormal communications between the repeater and the primary base station.
