Abstract
A method of deploying a distributed antenna system (DAS) is provided. The method comprises outputting first and second signals from a multiple-input and multiple-output base station (MIMO BTS) and coupling a master unit to the MIMO BTS. The method further comprises coupling first and second remote units to the master unit, the first remote unit communicating the first signal over a first air interface located within the environment at a first location, the second remote unit communicating the second signal over a second air interface within the environment at a second location. The first and second remote units are arranged at the first and second locations within the environment and configured to provide signal coverage of both the first signal and the second signal at a third location in the environment to provide the capacity for MIMO communications through the system at the third location.
