Abstract

MARRTS (multi access rural radio telephone system) extends telephone service to rural areas where conventional physical lines are impossible or impractical to install. The system provides service for up to a maximum of 16 subscribers on up to four bearer channels. The bearer channels are realized using single channel full duplex VHF transceivers and the channels are assigned to subscribers on a demand basis. For low to moderate traffic the grade of service provided by the system is very good and the user is not aware of its multi-access nature
