hi,
Like our body backbone, its function is to support network (it is basically a Microwave(PDH), SDH, DSL, links which provides BSC connectivity to various sites). If this backbone site goes down many BTS shall be affected.
Repeater site is basically a signal boster placed far (remote location) from BTS, it basically bosts BTS received signal and retransmits it to provide Radio coverage in a particular area.
