Abstract

Abstract A mobile radio network comprises at least one mobile terminal and at least three base stations. The base stations are connectable by a transmission network and by way of a mobile network interface unit to a fixed network. At least one base station is connected by the transmission network to at least two mobile network interface units. Network switching means is arranged to connect the mobile network interface units together when a mobile terminal changes its affiliation from one base station to a different base station. This permits communication from the mobile terminal to the fixed network by way of the interconnected mobile network interface units.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 105 words
A mobile radio network, comprising at least one mobile terminal and at least three base stations connectable by a transmission network by way of a mobile network interface unit to a fixed network, characterised in that at least one base station is connectable by the transmission network to at least two mobile network interface units, and network switching means is arranged to connect the mobile network interface units together when a mobile terminal changes its affiliation from one base station to a different base station, to permit communication from the mobile terminal to the fixed network by way of said interconnected mobile network interface units.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 18 words
A mobile radio network as claimed in claim 1, wherein the transmission network is an ATM transmission network.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 45 words
A mobile radio network as claimed in claim 1 or 2, wherein each mobile network interface unit is provided with means to optimise the path to the fixed network when a mobile terminal has moved within the area controlled by the mobile network interface unit.
