Some Terminology
A
Point to Multipoint
network is typically abbreviated to PtMP. The PtMP networks
described in this Manual are of course, radio links.
A PtMP link consists of at least one
Base Station
(BS) radio linked to several
Subscriber
Unit
(SU) radios. The SUs are sometimes called
Customer Premises Equipment
(CPEs).
The terminology comes from the field of telephony.
The radio links are effected by using a
sector antenna
with the BS. The SUs use directional
antennas aligned to the BS.
