The use (call origination, call reception and/or communication (handoff)) of a CDMA-WLL (Wireless Local Loop) mobile station (location-limited mobile station) outside its registered areas is functionally prohibited. The registered areas are determined with regard to each CDMA-WLL mobile station and information concerning the registered areas is stored in a CDMA-WLL controller. For example, when a CDMA-WLL mobile station originated a call, a mobile services switching center refers to the CDMA-WLL controller and thereby searches for the registered areas of the CDMA-WLL mobile station, compares the registered areas with present location areas of the CDMA-WLL mobile station, and executes a connection establishment process for the CDMA-WLL mobile station if a match occurred in the comparison. By such functional location limitation of the CDMA-WLL mobile station, the differentiation between the CDMA-WLL mobile stations and ordinary (location-unlimited) mobile stations can be made properly, and the balance between the CDMA-WLL mobile stations and fixed (wired) telephone sets can be maintained appropriately.
