Fixed wireless communication system and method of operation

摘要

A fixed wireless access system, comprising: a base station unit; a first radio frequency interface; a first switch; and a customer premise equipment (CPE) unit, comprising: a host interface connectable to a host; a second radio frequency interface enabling non-line-of-sight radio frequency transmission to said base station unit and non-line-of-sight radio frequency reception from said base station unit; and a second switch, wherein said second switch is capable of switching an information packet from said host to said CPE unit and from said CPE unit to said radio frequency interface for transmission of said information packet by said CPE unit via radio frequency and capable of switching an information packet received at said radio frequency interface to said CPE unit and from said CPE unit to said host, wherein said first and second radio frequency interfaces utilize orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) to transmit and receive said information packet.
