Abstract
A frequency translating repeater () for use in a time division duplex (TDD) radio protocol communications system includes local oscillator (LO) circuits (, and) to facilitate repeating by providing isolation, reduced phase noise, reduced pulling, and the like. Tunable LOs () can be directly coupled to down-converters () and up-converters () for increased isolation, reduced phase noise, less stringent frequency accuracy, and a reduced potential for pulling.
