Abstract

Provided are a distributed repeater for repeating output signals identical to input signals through a channel different from that of main transmitter signals but identical to channels of other distributed repeaters, and a distributed repeating method thereof. The distributed repeater includes: a pre-processing unit configured to receive a radio frequency (RF) signal transmitted from an external device and demodulate the RF signal into a baseband signal; an equalizer configured to equalize the baseband signal to correct a distortion occurring on a transmission channel; an identification signal generation and insertion unit configured to generate an identification signal for identification of the distributed repeater and network conditioning, and insert the identification signal in the equalized baseband signal; and a post-processing unit configured to convert the baseband signal from the identification signal generation and insertion unit into an RF signal, and send the RF signal.
