Method and system for a repeater network that utilizes distributed transceivers with array processing

Abstract

A device that comprises a plurality of distributed transceivers, a central processor and a network management engine may be configured to function as relay device, relaying an input signal from a source device to at least one other device. The relaying may include configuring one or more of the plurality of distributed transceivers to particular mode of relay operation and receiving the input signal from the source device via at least one of the configured one or more of the plurality of distributed transceivers. The relaying may also include transmitting at least one relay signal corresponding to the input data stream to the at least one other device, via at least one of the configured one or more of the plurality of distributed transceivers. The transceivers are configured based on at least one of measured power of the input signal or a distance between the device and the other device.
