This invention removes the requirement of cable interconnection for local area networks (LANs) by wireless relay stations suitable for very high data rates by operation at high carrier frequencies where signal reflection and absorbtion by walls is total or requires undesirable high omnidirectional RF power transmissions. The LAN can be deployed without special installation requirements when operated with indoor transponders (U.S.Pat.4,975,926). In the preferred embodiment relay stations communicate with IR light beams, and wall and ceiling propagation blockage is overcome by low power RF structure couplers. <IMAGE> |
