  • Telecommunication method and system for communicating with multiple terminals in a building through multiple antennas
    Patent number: 6128471
    Abstract: Telecommunications system in which an outside antenna is positioned to direct radio signals in a divergent beam towards a predetermined wall surface area of a building. The outside antenna is sufficiently close to the building to require constancy of the radio signals to noise ratio of radio signals transmitted by the outside antenna. The signals transmitted at the building are received by patch antennas located on the wall surface area (e.g. in practice upon windows) for connection of the outside antenna to individual terminal outlets in the building. These terminal outlets are preferably connected by cable to the patch antennas, but the terminal outlets may be radio receivers.
