1. A repeater device, comprising:
a donor radio antenna configured to capture publicly broadcast synchronization signals from an outdoor 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) node; and
a controller configured to:
decode the captured publicly broadcast synchronization signals from the outdoor 5G RAN node, wherein the decode of the captured publicly broadcast synchronization signals is independent of additional signaling and explicit coordination from the outdoor 5G RAN node; and
synchronize with the decoded publicly broadcast synchronization signals to align a frame structure of the donor radio antenna to a frame structure of the outdoor 5G RAN node, wherein
the synchronization with the decoded publicly broadcast synchronization signals is independent of the additional signaling and the explicit coordination from the outdoor 5G RAN node,
the synchronization with the decoded publicly broadcast synchronization signals comprises execution of time synchronization to the outdoor 5G RAN node, and
the time synchronization utilizes a Synchronization Signal Block (SSB) correlator to align with a symbol timing of the outdoor 5G RAN node.
