Abstract

A method for operating a DAS includes providing a set of digital remote units (remotes) operable to send and receive wireless radio signals. Each of the set of remotes is associated with a geographic area. The method also includes providing a digital access unit (host) operable to communicate with the set of remotes, receiving uplink signals at one or more of the set of remotes, and monitoring train activity in the geographic areas. The method further includes increasing a gain coefficient associated with one of the set of remotes in response to determining an increase in monitored train activity, decreasing a gain coefficient associated with another of the set of remotes in response to determining a decrease in monitored train activity, and transmitting, to the host, scaled uplink signals associated with the one of the set of remotes and the another of the set of remotes.
