  • Patent number: 7142887
    Abstract: An automatic transfer of a process command activated by a user on his wireless telecommunications device in a cell of a cellular telecommunications system toward a terminal nearby in the same cell. This transfer transits via a PBX which administers all the base stations of the cellular telecommunications system and which is connected to a network comprising the terminals. The PBX will forward that process command with the supplementary information telling in which cell of the cellular telecommunications system this process command was received. With that information, a computer which administers all the terminals of the network transfers that process command to a terminal located in the same cell as the wireless telecommunications device at the time that the process command was generated on it and on which this process command will be performed.

  • Publication number: 20020006811
    Abstract: It is taken advantage of the possibility to locate a wireless telecommunications device when being active inside a cellular telecommunications system i.e. in which cell it can just be found. Moreover, to each different cell covered each one by a base station is affected a certain number of specific terminals. The present invention is then based on an automatic transferring of a process command activated by an user on his wireless telecommunications device toward a terminal nearby in this same cell. This transfer transits via a PBX which administers all the base stations of that cellular telecommunications system and which is connected possibly via a computer to a network made of those terminals. The PBX will forward that process command with the supplementary information telling in which cell of the cellular telecommunications system this process command was received.
