Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling the restriction on traffic in a mobile communication system enabling an efficient mobile communication system with little wasted processing, wherein the apparatus for controlling the restriction on traffic includes a report unit provided in a mobile communication switching center for reporting a processing state indicating a congested state or a normal state to a management center in advance; a management unit provided in the management center for managing the processing states of each mobile communication switching center based on the reports of the processing states; a notifying unit provided in the management center for investigating by the management unit the processing state of a destination mobile communication switching center in response to a request, from a gateway mobile switching center, for a location of a destination to be connected to a call and notifying the gateway mobile switching center that the processing state is a congested state when in a congested

Abstract: A call destination number conversion system to provide representative phone number connection services in a mobile communications system. A notification unit in a base station notifies mobile stations of representative phone numbers and individual phone numbers of subscriber terminals. Upon receipt of this information, a storage unit disposed in each mobile station stores the representative phone numbers and their associated individual phone numbers. When a mobile user has dialed a representative phone number to initiate a call from his/her mobile station, a reading unit in the mobile station searches the storage unit to read out a specific individual phone number associated with the dialed representative phone number. Finally, a call request unit sends a call setup request to the base station, specifying the individual phone number read out by the reading unit as the call destination number.
