Abstract
A radio communications system has a node station centrally located in a covering area and a plurality of remote substations. The system comprises a plurality of transceivers in the node station, and a plurality of substation transceivers respectively located in the substations corresponding respectively to the node station transceivers to establish a plurality of pairs of two-way radio links therebetween. The covering area is divided into a plurality of concentric zones, each of the zones being assigned a pair of particular frequencies or a pair of particular polarization planes. Each zone has one or more substations. Transmission power level of each of the node station transceivers and each of the substation transceivers is adjusted so that fine-weather reception field strength at each end of those radio links having a greater length is greater than fine-weather reception field strength at each end of those radio links having a smaller length, there being a linear relationship between the field stength at each end of each radio link and the length thereof. The minimum azimuth angular spacing between adjacent substations can be reduced by a factor of 1/4 to allow a greater number of substations to be accommodated in the system.
