Abstract

An electric lamp holder module includes an electric lamp holder, an operational amplifier, a signal receiving unit, and an output antenna. The electric lamp holder module is embedded in a pre-arranged electric lamp slot through the electric lamp holder and receives an electric power supplied from a wall socket power through the electric lamp slot. The signal receiving unit receives an external transmission signal. The output antenna is configured to send out the transmission signal after the transmission signal has been amplified by the operational amplifier. Therefore, the electric lamp holder module is used as a signal repeater. The transmission signal is amplified by the operational amplifier for prolonging the transmission distance.

Claims
