  • Publication number: 20170338866
    Abstract: A method of data reduction implemented in a communication system, the method comprising steps of generating a plurality of first baseband signals in response to a plurality of signals received by at least one antenna, capturing a plurality of second baseband signals, in response to a signal time duration, from each of the first baseband signals, generating a plurality of third baseband signals in response to the second baseband signals, transmitting a first combined signal including the third baseband signals to at least one baseband signal unit via a communication system, retrieving the third baseband signal from the received first combined signal, generating a plurality of fourth baseband signals, and generating a second combined signal including the fourth baseband signals.
