A new, transportable, TV Studio to Transmitter wireless system has been designed and deployed in Mexico to feed a MMDS transmitter with local news feeds from mobile cameras located within 5 miles (8 kilometers) of the MMDS transmitter system.

The FM system, which operates in the 5.8 GHz band, an unlicensed band in the United States and many other countries, provides operators with a low-cost solution for local news gathering in small communities.

The system consists of a portable transmitter with an integrated flat panel antenna and a receiver with an omni-directional receive antenna. This allows reception of signals from all points around the transmitter without re-orienting the receive antenna.

The output of the receiver can be fed directly to the MMDS system. This enables low cost portable links for local news generation and transmission.
