Abstract

A wireless repeater for receiving, amplifying and transmitting one or more wireless signals. The repeater comprises a signal processing device for determining one or more attributes of a wireless signal received from a mobile device and a memory for storing a reference list that includes one or more preferred frequency bandwidths to be repeated. The repeater also comprises a controller coupled with the signal processing device for comparing the one or more attributes of the wireless signal with the reference list, wherein the controller selects a first active set of one or more frequency bandwidths from the preferred frequency bandwidths based on the comparison. The repeater still further comprises a first reception filter coupled with the controller, where the first reception filter, responsive to control signal(s) from the controller, filters out signals, communicated to the first reception filter, having frequencies outside the first active set of frequency bandwidths.
