Network providing improved coverage based on a frequency shifting scheme.
A wireless signal in a frequency band is shifted to another distinct
band, and carried in the shifted band, using wired or wireless mediums,
to another location, wherein the wireless signal is shifted back to the
original frequency band. In one embodiment, the wireless signal is
frequency shifted by converting it to other representing signals and
forming the frequency-shifted signal from the representations. The medium
may use dedicated wiring or existing service wiring in a residence or
building, including LAN, telephone, AC power and CATV wiring. The system
(in whole or in part) may be enclosed as a stand-alone unit, housed in
integrated form as part of a service outlet or as a snap-on/plug-in
module.
