Wireless communication system and method of wireless communication in a wireless backhaul network

Abstract

A wireless communication system includes a master wireless communication device, a plurality of intermediate repeater devices, and one or more service wireless communication devices. Each intermediate repeater device receives, from an upstream network node, a first RF carrier signal in a first frequency carrying a download data stream and further relays, the download data stream in a second RF carrier signal at a second frequency to a downstream network node. The second frequency is a first offset of the first frequency. Each intermediate repeater device further receives a third RF carrier signal carrying an upload data stream in a third frequency from a downstream network node and further communicates the upload data stream in a fourth RF carrier signal in a fourth frequency to the upstream network node. The fourth frequency is a second offset of the third frequency.
