Abstract
In-building radio propagation measurements at 900 MHz are used to analyze the dynamic range requirements and optimal architecture for a distributed antenna network. The ideal performance/cost ratio for the network is found to be achieved with a low-cost hybrid fiber-coax architecture. A system design procedure and field-trial results are presented.
