Abstract

See full text

Cellular mobile radio systems provide full-duplex communication between base stations and mobile stations and with the fixed public service network. Also known are trunked mobile radio systems wherein a group of mobile users can exchange information with each other in the half-duplex mode over a common channel, only one user transmitting to the others at any time. It has been proposed to provide mobile radio sets which are especially adapted to be switched for use in either of such systems. The present invention avoids the need for specific adaptation of a mobile radio set for that purpose. Instead, it enables a cellular mobile radio system to be selectively converted into a trunked mobile radio system by providing for the base station to couple an up-link radio channel of any mobile user to down-link radio channels of a selected group of mobile users. One or more such user groups can be formed, only one radio channel being used for each group.
