1. A multi-band communication repeater system comprising:

  • a communication infrastructure configured to be a fixture of a building;

    a plurality of repeaters, wherein each one of said repeaters has a primary transceiver, comprising at least one antenna located outside said building and a secondary transceiver, comprising at least one antenna located inside said building, and each one of said repeaters is configured to utilize an intra-repeater signal to communicate between said primary transceiver and said secondary transceiver via said communication infrastructure, wherein a first repeater is configured to utilize a first intra-repeater signal which is an AMPS (Advanced Mobile Phone System) signal, a second repeater is configured to utilize a second intra-repeater signal which is a PCS (Personal Communications System) signal, and a third repeater is configured to utilize a third intra-repeater signal which is a paging signal, said intra-repeater signals coexisting as different signal sets occupying different RF frequency bands;

    a combiner coupled between said primary transceiver and said communication infrastructure, said combiner being configured to combine said first intra-repeater signal, said second intra-repeater signal, and said third intra-repeater signal into a combined intra-repeater signal;

    a separator coupled between said communication infrastructure and said secondary transceiver, said separator being configured to separate said combined intra-repeater signal into said first intra-repeater signal, said second intra-repeater signal, and said third intra-repeater signal; and

    a multi-band amplifier coupled between said combiner and said communication infrastructure, said multi-band amplifier comprising;

    a second separator configured to separate said combined intra-repeater signal into separated intra-repeater signals,a plurality of bandpass amplifiers configured to amplify said separated intra-repeater signals, anda second combiner configured to combine said amplified intra-repeater signals.
