  • Patent number: 7283835
    Abstract: A method of providing a group call service in a radio network is provided. A BS, which does not cover a GCA but is located in a radio network near to the GCA, generates extended group call service information including information about BSs that cover an NGCA and broadcasts the extended group call service information. Upon receipt of the extended group call service information, an MS selects a BS in the best service condition among BSs set in the extended group call service information as a BS from which to receive an extended group call service and receives group call paging information from the BS. The MS analyzes the group call paging information and decides whether the group call service is available from the BS. If the group call service is available, the MS registers and connects to the selected BS and receives the group call from the BS.

  • Patent number: 7263364
    Abstract: A data communication method for a mobile communication system reduces the consumption of resources when a desirable half-duplex data connection is provided. The data communication method includes the steps of: a) determining whether data communication is needed between at least two MSs (Mobile Stations) located in a service area of one BTS (Base Transmit Subsystem); b) if the data communication between the MSs is needed, assigning one physical half-duplex data channel to the MSs in common; and c) if data is transmitted to the MSs over a downlink channel of the half-duplex data channel, adding a header to the data to create data, and transmitting the data to the MSs.

  • Publication number: 20050159143
    Abstract: Disclosed is a mobile communication terminal of a mobile communication system using a plurality of different codecs and an automatic answering method thereof which can perform an automatic answering function with a single type of an automatic answering message without the necessity of storing automatic answering messages of different types that match the respective codecs, and can store automatic answering messages in an encoding form having a small amount of data. The automatic answering method includes performing a call set-up when a call signal is received through an antenna, determining if the automatic answering function is set, reading a pre-stored automatic answering message if the automatic answering function is set, selecting an encoder of a codec which corresponds to a coding type of the call signal received through the antenna during the call set-up, and encoding the read automatic answering message through the encoder.

  • Patent number: 6873853
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for providing only authorized mobile subscribers with a specified commercial broadcasting service in a cellular mobile communication network. A base station transmits a control signal including a common traffic ciphered key having a specified validation period through a dedicated secure signal channel assigned to a respective authorized subscriber terminal. The base station then enciphers broadcasting data from a broadcasting system with the common traffic ciphered key, for broadcasting through a common traffic broadcasting channel. The base station periodically updates the common traffic ciphered key according to the corresponding validation period. A subscriber terminal obtains the common traffic ciphered key from the control signal received through the dedicated secure signal channel, and deciphers the broadcasting signal with the obtained common traffic ciphered key to obtain therefrom the broadcasting data.
