摘要 |
A terrestrial communication system, facilitating audio, video, data and any other type of communication within a local geographical area, and with an extremely large number of communication channels being made available simultaneously at a very low cost. It comprises at least one local terrestrial satellite (LTS), preferably located in a mast or any other supporting structure, each (LTS) having high frequency communication equipment substantially corresponding to a conventional geostationary satellite for digital transmission of video, audio or data, arranged to transmit in the L Band (1-2 GHz), the S Band (2-4 GHz) or a higher frequency band with a relatively low power output and having a preferably omnidirectional antenna installation for transmission in a substantially horizontal plane. The signals can be digitalized according to MPEG-2 or according to any known or future signal algorithm. |
