Abstract

A communication system serving a plurality of radio units in a frequency blocked area includes a remotely controlled and remotely configurable network of radiating coaxial conductors. The radiating coaxial conductors, along with associated amplification devices, are arranged to provide radio communication to an area around the network using radio frequency radiation released by the plurality of radiating cables. Remote control to the system is provided by a control station which transmits control data to the amplification devices through the network of radiating coaxial conductors. The amplification devices are arranged to control the radiating coaxial conductors in such a way that, in response to receiving the control data, the radiating coaxial conductors may be reconfigured to overcome faults occurring in the system.
