  • Radio range verification method, wireless telecommunications equipment implementing this method, base station and mobile handset of such equipment
    Patent number: 6330437
    Abstract: A method of verifying effective radio range increases the distance over which wireless mobiles can be used around the base station. The level of the radio field received by the base station is measured to detect a range-limit electric signal. Instead of cutting off the communication at the detection of this signal, a presence verification protocol is initiated that includes exchanging presence confirmation after messages between the base station and the handset, and cutting off the communication only when one of the parts no longer receives a confirmation message after a predefined time period.
