REPEATER AND METHODS FOR USE THEREWITH
中继器及其使用方法

     Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a repeater device having a first coupler to extract down-stream channel signals from first guided electromagnetic waves bound to a transmission medium of a guided wave communication system. An amplifier amplifies the down-stream channel signals to generate amplified downstream channel signals. A channel selection filter selects one or more of the amplified downstream channel signals to wire-lessly transmit to the at least one client device via an antenna. A second coupler guides the amplified downstream channel signals to the transmission medium of the guided wave communication system to propagate as second guided electromagnetic waves. Other embodiments are disclosed.
   例如，所述主体公开的方面可以包括具有第一耦合器的中继器设备，该耦合器用于从绑定到导波通信系统的传输介质的第一导电磁波中提取下行信道信号。放大器放大下游信道信号以产生放大的下游信道信号。信道选择滤波器选择所述放大的下游信道信号中的一个或多个，以通过天线无线传送到所述至少一个客户端设备。第二耦合器将所述放大的下游信道信号引导到所述导波通信系统的传输介质，以作为第二导电磁波传播。公开了其他实施例。
