Abstract: A local area network system using a code division multiple access method is provided. The system includes a repeater for generating a reference synchronizing signal to synchronize the system, transceivers, connected to the repeater via a sending line and a receiving line, and subscriber units, connected to each transceiver. Each transceiver includes a common synchronizing circuit section for replicating and regenerating a synchronizing signal, as a reference signal, which is equal to the reference synchronizing signal generated by the repeater. Each transceiver also has a transmitter for delaying the synchronizing signal in accordance with the specific number of each subscriber unit and the delay time attributed to the sending and the receiving lines, multiplying the delayed synchronizing signal by the signal obtained by level coding the data sent by the transmitter into M-ary data, and then transmitting multiplied data to the sending line.
