Abstract
A bi-directional digital transmission method, and system, for sending and receiving digital transmission signals having a frame configuration modulated by an orthogonal frequency division multiplex modulation scheme. A first sending unit in a first transmission station converts first continuous data to a up-direction intermittent transmission signal, and sends it from a first antenna via a first switchover unit. The up-direction intermittent transmission signal is received by a second antenna of a second transmission station, and supplied to a second receiving unit of the second transmission station via a second switchover unit of the second transmission station. The second receiving unit determines whether receiving operation of the up-direction intermittent transmission signal has been established, and if so, restores the original first continuous data. A second sending unit in the second transmission station converts second continuous data to a down-direction intermittent transmission signal, and sends it from a second antenna via a second switchover unit. In the first transmission station, the down-direction intermittent sending transmission signal is received by the first antenna, and supplied to a first receiving unit via the first switchover unit to restore the original second continuous data.
