<p>A communication channel is established between a master station (2) and one of plural remote stations (1A,...1H) in a multichannel access (MCA) cordless telephone system. Access data is transmitted from the master station (2) to all of the remote stations (1A,...1H), at the same time, to designate a selected remote station as a representative station. The access data also includes calling data which seeks a response from that representative station. In the absence of a response to the calling data from the previously designated representative station, the station identifying data is changed to designate a new remote station as the representative station. The foregoing process is repeated until a representative station responds to the calling data, whereupon the remote stations (1A,...1H) are polled, in sequence; and a communication channel is established between the master station (2) and the particular polled station which replies to the polling operation.</p> |
