Abstract

A system for 5G radio access networks, that enables smart RF signal repeater devices to perform many of the functions of a 5G base station to extend millimeter wave coverage for 5G communication networks while reducing costs, increasing versatility and optimizing coverage for user devices (UEs). The devices may include outdoor network repeaters and indoor subscriber repeaters, and other mmWave network transmitter devices in a mmWave network. Different types of 5G wireless communication networks may be employed including Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN), and Next Gen Radio Access Network (NG-RAN).
