Abstract

The present invention comprises systems for and methods of providing dedicated capacity in a wireless cellular network. In an embodiment, a system for providing dedicated capacity in a cellular network comprises: a first base station positioned at a first location and being communicatively coupled to a telephone network, the first base station having an outdoor cellular antenna for forming a local coverage area, a second base station positioned at the first location and being communicatively coupled to the telephone network; and an indoor cellular antenna for forming a coverage area at a second location. The second location is geographically remote from the first location and the indoor cellular antenna is communicatively coupled to the second base station such that mobile communications equipment located within the coverage area at the second location are communicatively coupled to the telephone network via the indoor cellular antenna and the second base station.
