A COMMUNICATION SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES ACCESS QUEUING FOR COMMUNICATION SERVICES

摘要

A communication system (10) provides access to communication services used by a plurality mobile devices (12). A host processor (302) manages wireless service access to the mobile devices (12) over one or more communication links. A link manager (202) manages the one or more links in response to commands from the host processor (302). The system (10) includes an access queue (306) that queues service access requests from a group of mobile devices (12). The host processor (302) grants and terminates service access to the mobile devices in the group of mobile devices based on a predefined access policy that, for example, corresponds to the attributes of a service type and/or a subscription to the service by a user.
