COMPLETE SPECIFICATION STANDARD PATENT 4 4 44. 4 44 .4 4 44 4 .44 4 4.4.
*4 Invention Title: "TRANSPORTABLE MOBILE BASE STATION" 4 44 n, 4 44 4 44 The following statement is a full description of this invention, including the best method of performing it known to us: 1 Technical Field This invention provides a means of temporarily increasing mobile phone capacity, for instance where public events are being held, or in case of civil emergencies such as bushfires.
Background art Currently, the need for a temporary increase in mobile phone capacity can be met by transporting a mobile phone Base Station to the site where it is required, and hand-wiring the Base Station into the network by, running a cable to a telephone exchange. The setting up of such a cable link is labour intensive and i 10 presents logistical problems in locating the cable. This restricts the location.
Description of the Invention This specification describes a transportable mobile telephone base having a connection on its network side to a Radio Transceiver, to establish a connection to the telephone network via the Radio Transceiver.
S 15 Preferably the Radio Transceiver is a Satellite Transceiver.
In an alternative embodiment, the Radio Transceiver may be a microwave transceiver.
Preferably a power supply is also provided with the Base Station. The power supply may include a diesel generator, batteries etc.
Brief Description of the Drawings Figure 1 shows a transportable mobile telephone Base Station and Radio Transceiver according to an embodiment of the invention.
Best mode of carrying out the Invention Figure 1 shows a mobile telephone Base Station 1, and Radio Transceiver 2 mounted on a vehicle trailer The Base Station 1 is connected to a transportable mobile telephone antenna 4 to establish radio communication with mobile telephones within the cell of the Base Station. The antenna 4 is foldable or telescopic and is preferably mounted on trailer Base Station 1 is connected into the telephone via a connection to satellite transceiver 2 which provides a satellite link to satellite transponder 8. The satellite transponder 8 communicates with a Ground Station 6 which links into the Network 9. Operations Management Centre 11 and Base Station controller 10 are able to communicate with the Base Station 1 via the Network 9, Ground Station 6, the Satellite 8 and Satellite Transceiver 2.
In one embodiment the mobile telephone system is a GSM system. The Base Station 1 is incorporated into the network by the OMC 11 in a similar manner to the commissioning of a new fixed Base Station.
The Mobile Base Station is registered with a Base Station Controller (BSC) and a port of the BSC is permanently assigned to the Mobile Base Station.
When the Mobile Base Station has been set up in a location, it communicates with the BSC via, e.g. a satellite link into the network using, an ISDN protocol such as the LAPD protocol. Under this protocol, both the Base Station and the BSC poll the link until the other responds. The protocol also involves the regular exchange of messages, every 2 seconds to ensure the link is still operational.
15 When the Mobile Base Station is not operational, the BSC would register an alarm. The system would be programmed to be recognized that such an alarm from a port assigned to a Mobile Base Station does not require remedial action unless the Base Station is intended to be operational.

Claims (6)

1. A transportable mobile telephone Base Station arrangement including a Base Station and mobile telephone antenna, and a Base Station and a mobile telephone antenna, and a Radio Transceiver connected to the network side of the Base Station to link the Base Station into the telephone network via a radio link.
2. An arrangement as claimed in claim 1 wherein the Radio Transceiver is a satellite transceiver, and the radio link is via a satellite link to a Ground Station connected to the telephone network. 10
3. An arrangement as claimed in claim 1 or claim 2 wherein the mobile telephone antenna is foldable or telescopic.
4. An arrangement as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 3 including power supply means to provide power to the Base Station and Radio Transceiver.
An arrangement as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 4 wherein the Base •o 15 Station and Radio Transceiver are mounted on transport means.
6. A transportable Base Station arrangement substantially as herein described with reference to the accompanying drawings. *0 DATEDTHIS SIXTEENTH DAYOF NOVEMBER 1999 ALCATEL
