  • Patent number: 7277725
    Abstract: A frequency agile collocated multi-signal rf distribution system. The system includes a plurality of receivers, a plurality of transmitters, a power amplification module, an antenna module and an interference reduction module. The power amplification module is operatively coupled to the plurality of transmitters and is capable of receiving and amplifying transmission signals, reducing interference and outputting amplified transmission signals. The antenna module is operatively coupled to the power amplification module and is capable of receiving amplified transmission signals, receiving reception signals and outputting reception signals. The interference reduction module is operatively coupled to the power amplification module, the antenna module and the plurality of receivers, and is capable of receiving amplified transmission signals and reception signals, reducing co-site interference in receptions signals, and outputting reception signals having reduced co-site interference to the plurality of receivers.
