Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for automatically determining system configuration information, including the sector, carrier frequency and bus assignment of each hardware component installed on equipment, such as a cell station. In an illustrative cell station implementation, each cell station includes a hardware controller that communicates on a common bus with a plurality of hardware components. When each cell station is powered up or reset, each hardware component reads an identification value (or a portion thereof) that has some physical significance from a backplane on which the hardware component is installed. The identification information obtained from the backplane is used to derive a bus address that uniquely identifies each hardware component on the common bus. In addition, the identification information contains information that describes the hardware component and how the component is located within the cell station. In the illustrative embodiment, the identification value identifies the carrier frequency, frame, sector number (such as .alpha., .beta., .gamma.), unit type and unit number associated with the hardware component. The hardware component can provide information to the hardware controller that allows the hardware controller to generate a map of the hardware components located within the cell and determine their interconnection.

Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus and a method for sharing a communicati on channel among two or more base stations connected to a base station controller via a common transmission line in a channelized format. The present invention allows each of the base stations t o receive data transmitted over a shared communication channel from the base station controller, to determin e whether the data transmitted from the base station controller is intended for that base station, and to i nsert its data into the communication channel without interfering with data transmitted by other bas e stations over the communication channel. In one embodiment, each of the base stations is confi gured to bridge onto the transmission facility such that messages being transmitted over a signaling channel may be received by all of the base stations. The signaling messages has associated identifiers for specifying particular base stations to which the messages are intended. In another embo diment, each of the base stations can insert its signaling message into the data stream over the signaling channel without interfering with signaling messages already in the data stream.
