Abstract: A system and method provide calling and called terminals with multimedia alerting signals such as a ringtone and ringback tone. When desiring to receive first multimedia portal contents as a multimedia alerting signal, the calling terminal presets the first multimedia portal contents and makes a call connection setup request. When desiring to provide second multimedia portal contents as a ringback tone, a called terminal presets the second multimedia portal contents and notifies that the ringtone and ringback tone are set. A Personal Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) Portal (PIP) server receives call connection setup-related signals from the calling and called terminals, decides to provide particular multimedia portal contents as the ringback tone according to a predefined priority decision criterion when the calling and called terminals set the multimedia portal contents, and provides the set multimedia portal contents.

Abstract: In a transmission device and method for a CDMA communication system, when a shorter frame message is generated during transmission of a longer frame message, the transmission of the longer frame message is interrupted, whereupon the shorter frame message is immediately transmitted in place of a portion of the longer frame message. In one embodiment, after the longer frame message is interrupted and the shorter frame message is transmitted, only the tail portion of the longer frame message is transmitted thereafter. That is, the replaced portion of the longer frame message is not transmitted following the shorter frame message transmission. In an alternative embodiment, following the shorter frame message transmission, the remainder of the longer frame message, from the point of interruption, is transmitted in its entirety. In the latter case, the longer frame message is delayed by the length of the shorter frame message.

Abstract: A base station includes a center frequency setting unit, a local oscillator, a baseband processor, and an RF processor. In the event of a frequency band change, the center frequency setting unit sets a center frequency of a use frequency channel to have a predetermined offset value with respect to a center frequency before the frequency band change. The local oscillator generates an LO frequency signal according to the center frequency set by the center frequency setting unit. The baseband processor generates a downlink baseband signal. The RF processor uses the LO frequency signal to convert the downlink baseband signal into an RF signal prior to transmission.
