WiFi booster for tab 4 7 inch

Is there a usb plug in booster for the Tab 4 7in? Apps do not work because reception is a function of the antenna. I have a wifi dongle for one of my desktop computers and hoped it could be used with the tablet.
I need to boost the receive to get video to the tab from a wireless wifi camera from a 1000 yards.

Put a router midway between them, or wherever it's receiving a good signal from both and set it up as a repeater.

You can't use a "booster", you can only use an antenna. (A booster would have to boost in both directions at the same time, since wifi is two-way, and bi-directional amplifiers at 2.4GHz aren't cheap. [They're available, just not designed for use for wifi.] And it's illegal to use them in most countries, since the wifi radio in the phone is already putting out the maximum allowed power.)

Thanks for the reply. Guess I could buy a router and power it with a battery in the field.
