TWO WAY CORDLESS TELEPHONE COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

A system for providing two way telephone communication between a wireless telephone (10) and a telephone (16) hardwired to the public switched telephone network (14) comprises a plurality of telepoint base stations (12) serviced by a network control center (24) which is coupled to a telephone switch (20). The plurality of telepoint base stations (12) are further divided into groups of associated base stations (32), the groups (32) determined by the geographic coverage of the base station (12). A wireless telephone (10) can preregister with the base station (12), indicating to the network control center (24) the location of the wireless telephone (10). When a call comes into the system (18) for the wireless telephone (10), the call is coupled to a meet me port (22). The telepoint station (12) and all other telepoint stations (12) in the group (32) to which the registered base station (12) belongs, attempt to locate the wireless telephone (10). When the wireless telephone (10) is located, it is coupled to the call at the meet me port (22).
