Abstract: The efficiency of telecommunication systems comprising a switch and a memory for storing messages originating from a first terminal and destined for a second terminal, can be increased by introducing a generator in said second terminal for generating a specific signal to be sent to said switch and defining a user of said second terminal being interested in a specific message mail, and by providing said switch with a detector for detecting said specific signal and with a processor for in response to said detecting ordering said memory to generate said specific message to be sent to said second terminal. By introducing a further generator in said first terminal for generating an indication signal to be sent to said switch and defining a message originating from a user of said first terminal being a specific message, the telecommunication system offers many user possibilities.

Abstract: The essential functions and characteristics of a telecommunications system with cordless terminals are established by the known DECT standard. On the one hand, the invention has the task of reducing the cost of ADPCM/PCM transcoders in DECT or DECT-like systems, and on the other to improve the handover characteristics, by making an interruption-free channel changeover, even during a change of cell bundles. To that effect, all DECT interface circuits (9, 10) are jointly controlled by a central processing unit (MOB CPU) assigned only to these DECT interface circuits (9, 10). The otherwise usual ADPCM/PCM transcoders have been omitted in the DECT interface circuits (9, 10), and are now assigned to the central processing unit (MOB CPU), while their number can be reduced in comparison to known solutions. The central processing unit (MOB CPU) also takes over the switching functions for the channels offered by the DECT interface circuits (9, 10).

Abstract: To also offer the possibility of mobile communication to branch exchange. The task of the invention is to present an interface arrangement between a private branch exchange and one or more base stations, at low cost for large numbers of existing base stations. To that effect, a microprocessor-controlled interface that maintains the DECT-Standard is offered, which shifts the majority of the functions from the one or more base stations to the branch exchange. A particularly cost-effective solution is obtained by making multiple use of component groups and dynamic channel assignment.

Abstract: To prevent competitive situations when accessing a bus, it is known to use control circuits and to coordinate the access of the information sources to the bus by means of organization lines between the information sources and the information sinks. According to the invention, the access entitlement is switched from one information source to another by the desire to access, which is triggered by the information offer via a control line (TSDIS) connected to the information source (MAC-ASIC 1, MAC-ASIC 2, MAC-ASIC 3, MAC-ASIC n). The method can be used in a telecommunications installation operating according to the DECT standard or the CT 2 or CT 3 standard, if, when the subscriber changes location, the original radio connection is changed from a first base station (BS 1) to a second base station (BS 2), which has a better transmission path available.
