Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a method for the transfer of data transmitted from a base station (PBS) to a central station (PAC) in a personal paging network, comprising base stations (PBS) for transmitting paging messages over a radio and a central station (PAC) for controlling operation of the base stations on the basis of data received from the base stations. The radio channel used for the transmission of paging messages is also used for the transfer of said data to be transmitted from the base stations (PBS) to the central station (PAC).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
175 words
A method for transferring data transmitted from paging base stations (PBS) to a central station (PAC) in a personal paging network, comprising: transmitting paging messages over a radio channel using the base stations (PBS); controlling operation of the base stations using the central station (PAC); using the radio channel both for transmitting the paging messages and for the transfer of said data transmitted from the base stations (PBS) to the central station (PAC); using said radio channel for the transfer of base-station data at preset times (D) between pagings (P), and transmitting the base-station data from a single base station (PBS) to the central station (PAC) through one or more other base stations in such a manner that at least one base station, which is a paging area node station (PBS01), is in a fixed data transfer communication with the central station (PAC), and transmitting the data to be transferred from the base stations to the central station by means of said radio channel from a plurality of base stations (PBS) to said node station.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
175 words
A method for transferring data transmitted from paging base stations (PBS) to a central station (PAC) in a personal paging network, comprising: transmitting paging messages over a radio channel using the base stations (PBS); controlling operation of the base stations using the central station (PAC); using the radio channel both for transmitting the paging messages and for the transfer of said data transmitted from the base stations (PBS) to the central station (PAC); using said radio channel for the transfer of base-station data at preset times (D) between pagings (P), and transmitting the base-station data from a single base station (PBS) to the central station (PAC) through one or more other base stations in such a manner that at least one base station, which is a paging area node station (PBS01), is in a fixed data transfer communication with the central station (PAC), and transmitting the data to be transferred from the base stations to the central station by means of said radio channel from a plurality of base stations (PBS) to said node station.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method as set forth in claim 1, wherein the data to be transferred from the base stations (PBS) to the central station (PAC) includes not only failure information but also diagnostical and measuring information, on the basis of which the central station (PAC) controls operation of the base stations.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
108 words
A method for routing base-station data to be transmitted from wireless base stations over a radio channel in a personal paging network, comprising transmitting paging messages over the radio channel using the base stations; controlling operation of the base stations using a central station (PAC); transmitting base-station data from the base stations (PBS) to the central station (PAC) through one or more base stations (PBS); providing the base stations (PBS) transmitting base-station data with individual routing charts determining when the transmission occurs and which base station transmits base-station data that is forwarded by means of the routing charts provided to the base stations (PBS) transmitting base station data.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
108 words
A method for routing base-station data to be transmitted from wireless base stations over a radio channel in a personal paging network, comprising transmitting paging messages over the radio channel using the base stations; controlling operation of the base stations using a central station (PAC); transmitting base-station data from the base stations (PBS) to the central station (PAC) through one or more base stations (PBS); providing the base stations (PBS) transmitting base-station data with individual routing charts determining when the transmission occurs and which base station transmits base-station data that is forwarded by means of the routing charts provided to the base stations (PBS) transmitting base station data.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
21 words
A method as set forth in claim 3, wherein said base-station data is transmitted at preset times (D) between pagings (P).
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
38 words
A method as set forth in claim 4, wherein messages used for the transfer of base-station data are received at a node base station (PBS01), which is in a fixed data transfer communication with the central station (PAC).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method as set forth in claim 4, wherein said central station or a part of it consists of a paging area controller (PAC) for determining routings for base-station data on the basis of information received from the base stations (PBS) and updating said routing charts for the base station.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
38 words
A method as set forth in claim 3, wherein messages used for the transfer of base-station data are received at a node base station (PBS01), which is in a fixed data transfer communication with the central station (PAC).
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method as set forth in claim 7, wherein said central station or a part of it consists of a paging area controller (PAC) for determining routings for base-station data on the basis of information received from the base stations (PBS) and updating said routing charts for the base stations.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method as set forth in claim 3, wherein said central station or a part of it consists of a paging area controller (PAC) for determining routings for base-station data on the basis of information received from the base stations (PBS) and updating said routing charts for the base stations.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method as set forth in claim 3, wherein the data to be transferred from the base stations (PBS) to the central station (PAC) includes not only failure information but also diagnostical and measuring information, on the basis of which the central station (PAC) controls operation of the base stations.
