Abstract
Methods and systems for hybrid point to multipoint communication systems, including the steps of: determining transmission synchronization and bandwidth allocation between a first wireless client and a second wireless client communicating via a common communication channel; transmitting a download multi carrier transmission, via a shared signal wired distribution line, wherein the download multi carrier transmission comprises the determined transmission synchronization and bandwidth allocation; receiving the download multi carrier transmission by a first hybrid converter and by a second hybrid converter connected to the shared signal wired distribution line; shifting the frequency of the download multi carrier transmission from a wired distribution line frequency to a wireless frequency in the first hybrid converter and in the second hybrid converter; and transmitting the frequency-shifted download multi carrier transmission to the air from the first hybrid converter and from the second hybrid converter.
