Abstract
An advanced split microwave architecture is provided. The advanced split microwave architecture includes a smart outdoor communication unit including a digital N-Plexer configured to multiplex and/or demultiplex a received data signal in the digital domain, a processor unit configured to carry out instructions to control operation of the digital N-Plexer, and a converter module configured to convert the received data signal between the digital domain and the analog domain. The smart outdoor communication unit further includes an RF module, having digital capabilities, configured to correct errors within the received data signal in the digital domain, perform a conversion of the received data signal, to amplify a power of the received data signal, and to perform automatic gain control in the digital domain.
