Abstract: A fiber-optic communication apparatus includes first and second communication devices interconnected by an optical fiber cable. The first communication device converts one of a calibration signal with a predetermined power level and a radio frequency (RF) signal into an optical signal. The second communication device converts the optical signal, which is transmitted through the optical fiber cable, into an electrical signal, detects a power level of the electrical signal associated with the calibration signal, obtains a power attenuation ratio based on the power level detected thereby and the predetermined power level, and adjusts the power level of the electrical signal associated with the RF signal based on the power attenuation ratio.

Abstract: A distributed antenna in-door locating system has multiple antenna units, a head unit and a locating unit. The head unit is wired connected to the multiple antenna units respectively to assign a RF communication band to each user device. The locating unit is connected to the head unit and has a build-in locating process comprising steps of: (a) reading the assigned RF communication bands, and signal strength of RF signals in the assigned RF communication bands. (b) determining a location of each user device based on the assigned RF communication bands of each antenna unit and the signal strength of RF signals in the assigned RF communication bands. A administrator of the distributed antenna in-door locating system can obtain the location of each user device, and further obtain suitable locations for mounting the multiple antenna units in the area.

Abstract: A method of transmitting a downlink radio signal from a distributed antenna system to a mobile device is provided. The distributed antenna system includes a plurality of transceivers and a control module. Each of the transceivers receives an uplink radio signal from the mobile device as a respective received signal. Each of the transceivers transmits the received signal to the control module. The control module provides to each of the transceivers the downlink radio signal with a respective intensity, which is determined by the control module according to an intensity of the received signal from the transceiver. Each of the transceivers transmits the downlink radio signal to the mobile device.
