FIG. 3 illustrates an exemplary scenario for implementation of the communication device of FIG. 2 as a repeater equipment for low-power and low-latency NSA initial access to 5G NR carrier, in accordance with an embodiment of the disclosure. FIG. 3 is explained in conjunction with elements from FIGS. 1 and 2. With reference to FIG. 3, there is shown an exemplary NSA 5G NR network architecture which comprises a repeater device 302, a fixed wireless access (FWA) user equipment (UE) 304, an MeNB 306, and a gNB 308. The repeater device 302, the FWA UE 304, the MeNB 306, and the gNB 308 may correspond to the communication device 102, the FWA UE 104A (or the mobile UE 104B), the first base station 106, and the second base station 108 respectively (FIG. 1). There is further shown a short-range wireless communication link 310 between the repeater device 302 and the FWA UE 304. The short-range wireless communication link 310 may correspond to the short-range wireless communication link 116 of FIG. 1.
