1. An apparatus for generating and/or transmitting communications signals, the apparatus comprising:
- a generator for generating a WLAN modem signal at a first frequency;
a mixer for mixing the frequency of the generated signal from the first frequency down to a second frequency prior to transmission of the signal at the second frequency over a wire transmission line; and
a near field antenna for receiving the signal transmitted at the second frequency and being provided sufficiently near to the wire transmission line so as to wirelessly couple thereto.

16. A method of generating and/or transmitting communications signals, the method comprising:
-
generating a WLAN modem signal at a first frequency; mixing the frequency of the generated signal from the first frequency down to a second frequency prior to transmission of the signal at the second frequency over a wire transmission line; and receiving the signal transmited at the second frequency via a near field antenna that is provided sufficiently near to a the wire transmission line to wirelessly couple the near field antenna to the wire transmission line. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
