Method, device, and system for radio communication at short distances
First Claim
1. A radio-based two way short range communication device that provides local network access for broadband services, comprising:
- a first cellular system configured to operate in a first frequency range and provide capacity-demanding broadband services having a predetermined bandwidth; and
a second cellular system which when operated individually communicates digital signals between respective terminals at frequencies lower than said first frequency range of said first cellular system and occupying another bandwidth that is narrower than said predetermined bandwidth of said first cellular system, said second cellular system being integrated with said first cellular system such that when said second cellular system is operated jointly with said first cellular system, said digital signals are two-way communicated in a portion of said predetermined bandwidth in said first frequency range of said first cellular system.

Abstract
A method, device and system for radio based short range communication makes possible local network access for capacity-demanding broadband services in a cellular short range system such as DECT. Two separate cellular systems for short range communication are integrated to make a hybrid system, where one of the systems is a DECT system and the other system is a LMDS system. The integration combines DECT and LMDS so that LMDS is used for radio transmission between a DECT-PP and a DECT-RFP via an uplink and a downlink, and for transmission of broadband information in a downlink. The DECT aspect is used for speech, narrow band and medium band data communication, and for transmission of authorization/encryption information so that only authorized subscriber can utilize the information which is transmitted via DECT and LMDS.

12. A method for providing local network access to broadband services in a radio based short range telecommunication system, comprising the steps of:
-
integrating a first cellular system with a second cellular system, comprising, operating said first cellular system in a first frequency range that is wholly or partly intended for capacity demanding broadband communications having a predetermined bandwidth, providing capacity demanding broadband services in said first cellular system, and allocating in said second cellular system a lower frequency band than said first frequency range and narrower in bandwidth than said predetermined bandwidth of said first cellular system for surface coverage two-way communication with digital signals; and communicating said digital signals of said second communication system in said predetermined bandwidth in said first frequency range. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
