Abstract: A method and system for processing telephone calls within a digital wireless telephone system (101) is described. During the initiation of a telephone call from a wireless subscriber unit (100) it is determined whether the receiving subscriber unit (100, 106) is also part of a digital wireless telephone system that has compatible vocoding capability. If so, vocoded data from the digital wireless telephone system (101) is converted into tones that are introduced into a wire based telephone system for routing to the appropriate receiving digital wireless telephone system. When these tones are received by the receiving digital wireless telephone system (101) the vocoded data is regenerated based on the tones and then transmitted to the receiving subscriber unit (100). If the originating and receiving wireless subscriber units are part of the same digital wireless telephone system (101), the steps of conversion to tones and introduction into the wire based telephone system are omitted, and the call is routed completely within that digital wireless telephone system. In another embodiment of the invention, the step of conversion to tones is entirely omitted and the vocoded data is passed between the two digital wireless telephone systems via an all digital connection such as an ATM packet network (104) or a wire based telephone connection (108) where the integrity of digital information is assured. When a conference call is initiated by one of the wireless subscriber units (100) involved in the telephone call, data from both wireless subscriber units (100) is decoded and placed into analog format so that it can be summed. Additionally, signal processing resources (210) are allocated for the call if the two original wireless subscriber units where part of the same part of the same digital wireless telephone system (101). When the call waiting feature is activated by a wireless subscriber unit (100) involved in a phone call with another wireless subscriber unit (100) additional signal processing resources are also allocated for both the incoming and outgoing data associated with the second call so that is may be properly processed.

Abstract translation: 描述了一种在数字无线电话系统（101）内处理电话呼叫的方法和系统。 在从无线用户单元（100）发起电话呼叫期间，确定接收用户单元（100,106）是否也是具有兼容的声码能力的数字无线电话系统的一部分。 如果是这样，来自数字无线电话系统（101）的声码数据被转换成被引入有线电话系统中以便路由到适当的接收数字无线电话系统的音调。 当由接收数字无线电话系统（101）接收到这些音调时，基于音调再生声码数据，然后发送到接收用户单元（100）。 如果始发和接收无线用户单元是相同的数字无线电话系统（101）的一部分，则省略转换为音调和引入有线电话系统的步骤，并且该呼叫在该数字无线电话系统内完全路由 。 在本发明的另一个实施例中，完全省略转换为音调的步骤，并且声码数据在两个数字无线电话系统之间经由全数字连接（例如ATM分组网络（104）或有线电话连接 108）数字信息的完整性得到保证。 当电话呼叫中涉及的无线用户单元（100）中的一个发起会议呼叫时，来自两个无线用户单元（100）的数据被解码并被放置成模拟格式，使得它可以相加。 另外，如果同一数字无线电话系统（101）的同一部分的一部分的两个原始无线用户单元，则为呼叫分配信号处理资源（210）。 当呼叫等待特征由与另一个无线用户单元（100）的电话呼叫中的无线用户单元（100）激活时，也为与第二呼叫相关联的输入和输出数据分配额外的信号处理资源， 可能被正确处理。

Abstract: The wireless local loop system employs cellular technology to provide telephone service to fixed telephones of remote stations (20) having otherwise conventional handsets. The remote station (20) emulates a conventional public switched telephone network by providing an artificial dial tone from the handset of the remote station, after the handset is taken off-hook. The artificial dial tone is locally generated (112) by the remote station. The system, however, delays providing the dial tone if the system is busy, i.e. if the system is under a load condition. To this end, the system monitors load levels (20) and transmits signals to the remote stations indicating load conditions. A remote station (20), prior to granting at dial tone to the user, receives the load condition signals, determines whether the system is currently under load (211) and, if so, defers the dial tone (213). Hence, if the system is under a load condition, such that no lines or frequency channels are available, the user is not presented a dial tone until a line or channel becomes available. By deferring the dial tone until a line or channel is available, the wireless local loop system more effectively emulates a PSTN.

Abstract translation: 无线本地环路系统采用蜂窝技术为具有其他传统手机的远程站（20）的固定电话提供电话服务。 在手机摘机后，远程站（20）通过从远程站的手机提供人造拨号音来仿真传统的公共交换电话网络。 人造拨号音由远程站本地生成（112）。 然而，如果系统忙，即系统处于负载状态，则系统延迟提供拨号音。 为此，系统监视负载水平（20），并向远程站发送指示负载条件的信号。 远程站（20）在给用户拨打拨号音之前接收负载状况信号，确定系统当前是否处于负载（211），如果是，则延迟拨号音（213）。 因此，如果系统处于负载状态，使得没有线路或频道可用，则在线路或信道变得可用之前，用户不会呈现拨号音。 通过延迟拨号音直到线路或信道可用，无线本地环路系统更有效地模拟PSTN。
