  • Patent number: 5825764
    Abstract: The area covered by a GSM base station can be increased in concentric rings of 35 km width by co-locating as many GSM transceivers as there are rings, the receivers of the transceivers being delayed by an amount equivalent to the round trip transit time for signals to transverse the inner rings. To enable idle mobiles to access the system each transceiver includes additional auxiliary receivers to receive access bursts on the frequencies of the other transceivers. Thus a mobile can access the system irrespective of the cell in which it is located even though it does not know in which cell it is located.

  • Patent number: 5615215
    Abstract: A TDMA radio communication system such as GSM has a limited time period (td) over which the transmission from a mobile station (MS1 . . . MS5) can be advanced to allow for the transit time of the signal between the mobile and the base station (BS), and this limits the maximum range of the system to radius R1. By co-locating a first transceiver (TX1/RX1) operating on a first frequency band (F1) and a second transceiver (TX2/RX2) operating on a second frequency band (F0), and delaying the reception time slots of RX2 by td, the first transceiver can be used for communication up to radius R1, and the second transceiver can be used for communication for mobiles between radius R1 and radius R0. Idle mobiles are instructed to camp on F0 and RX1 is switched during access request periods to look for access requests on F0.
