Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inexpensive pager device that can request the service of a server to dispatch an agent to obtain information for the pager device and return the information in a store-and-forward system that takes advantage of low cost non-real time transmissions. SOLUTION: A communication system (10) for coupling a selective call transceiver (18) to a widely distributed information source (24) comprises the server (22) coupled to the widely distributed information source. The server contains agents for retrieving information customized for a given selective call transceiver. The system further includes a paging terminal (20) coupled to the server for allowing the selective call transceiver to request information from the server. The system also includes a transmitter for transmitting the predetermined information retrieved from the widely distributed information source to the selective call transceiver.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To optimally control power and other parameters, in a two-way communication system, by utilizing a GPS receiver. SOLUTION: A selective-call transceiver (20) in a messaging system having a plurality of transmitters (90, 94, 99), is constituted of a receiver module (26), a transmitter module (22) coupled to the receiver module and a controller coupled to the receiver module and the transmitter module for controlling the operation of the selective call transceiver. Additionally, the selective-call transceiver also comprises a GPS receiver (24), coupled to the controller for receiving GPS information, wherein the controller uses the GPS information to assist in the control of functions selected from among a group, consisting of transmitter power control, site selection switching, sub-zone selection switching, forward error correction, retry transmission decisions, Doppler-frequency shift, synchronization, and frequency scanning and selection.

Abstract:
A SCT (Selective Call Transceiver) (10) includes a memory (54) which stores a list (60) of addressees with whom the SCT user normally communicates. The memory also stores, for each of selected addresses, an associated group (62) of customized messages. The SCT (10) has a processor (18) that is programmed to permit the user to easily choose a customized message to be sent to an addressee, either by way of replying to a previously received message or by initiating transmission of a new communication.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for automatically transferring control of a portable radio communication device (101) having an internal processor (108) and a first data port (118) comprise transferring (412, 414) control from the internal processor (108) to an external computer (103), the external computer (103) having a second data port (128). In the portable radio communication device (101) the internal processor (108) detects (406) a signal at the first data port (118), the signal indicating that the external computer (103) is coupled to the portable radio communication device (101) through the first and second data ports (118, 128). In response, the internal processor (108) transfers (412, 414) control of the portable radio communication device (101) from the internal processor (108) to the external computer (103).
