WATCH PAGER SYSTEM AND COMMUNICATION PROTOCOL

摘要

Improved time-division multiplexed communication methods for a wide area paging system. One method appends check bits of a correction code to each data word and interleaves the words on transmission. A second method transmits multiple messages for one or more paging receivers in a single time slot. A third method increases the number of individual receivers that can be served by a single paging system. A fourth method increases the number of receivers that can be served by splitting the receivers in an area among several systems.
