ABSTRACT:
A center station 1 generates an all-channel signal 2 obtained by multiplexing signals on all channels, and transmits the signals to a selective distribution station 10 through 1 wire transmission line such as an optical fiber. Subscribers' transmitting devices 40.sub.1 to 40.sub.N transmit requests for channels to be received by corresponding subscribers' receiving devices 30.sub.1 to 30.sub.N to the selective distribution station 10 in a radio transmission system. The selective distribution station 10 selects the signals on the channels requested from the all-channel signal 2 in response to requests to receive channels serving as up-signals transmitted in a radio transmission system from the subscribers' transmitting devices 40.sub.1 to 40.sub.N, and distributes and transmits the selected signals to the subscribers' receiving devices 30.sub.1 to 30.sub.N as down-signals.
