Ce n'est que récemment avec l'évolution des technologies et la perspective de la libéralisation des marchés des télécommunications, que les technologies radio sont apparues comme des solutions alternatives intéressantes à la boucle locale filaire traditionnelle. 3, record 4, French, - acc%C3%A8s%20hertzien
