Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0117143A1] The communication system (2) according to the invention comprises a gateway (4) and a plurality of stations (6). The gateway (4) and the stations (6) are interconnected via a coaxial cable network (8). The gateway (4) is arranged for receiving broadcast signals (10), e.g. television and/or radio signals, from a transmitter and for distributing the broadcast signals (10) in a broadcast frequency band via the coaxial cable network (8) to the stations (6). The stations (6) are arranged for exchanging information signals via the coaxial cable network (8). The information signals are exchanged in an information frequency band which lies below the broadcast frequency band, e.g. below 65 MHz. In this way, an in-home network is established in which the stations (6) can exchange information via a separate frequency band over already present coaxial cables.
