Abstract

A distributed antenna system includes a multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) base station configured to output at least a first signal and a second signal. At least one master unit communicates with the MIMO base station. At least one remote unit communicates with the master unit. At least one antenna is coupled with the remote unit for receiving signals from the remote unit. A hybrid coupler is coupled between the remote unit and antenna and is configured to receive the first signal Ch1 and the second signal Ch2 from the remote unit on respective first and second ports and to provide an output signal on at least one output port. The output signal includes at least a portion of the first signal and at least a portion of the second signal. The antenna is coupled with the output port.
