Abstract
The radio local distribution system (RLDS) has been proposed to transmit various business information signals. The proposed RLDS uses a 26 GHz band and time division multiple access (TDMA). The main features of the RLDS are the use of radio equipment containing the microwave integrated circuit (MIC) and the adoption of the demand-assigned TDMA (DA/TDMA) technique. The MIC is more suitable than conventional waveguide circuits for mass production because its components are miniaturized. The DA/TDMA system, operating in a fully variable demand-assignment mode, uses simple control systems with a low bit rate. As a result, the RLDS can serve a local distribution system of high-speed digital communications both expeditiously and economically.Keywords
