Abstract
Abstract A mobile communication system and a method for controlling this mobile communication system for a data communication using modems. A data communication is surely commenced from a voice communication condition irrelevant to initiation timing of mobile units employed in this system and also communication direction mode setting conditions of modem units. A mobile switching additional unit is provided in a mobile communication switching station and a connection adaptor is provide in the mobile station which has a mobile unit, a modem unit and a data terminal. In accordance with an instruction of initiation of data communication, the connection adaptor connects the data terminal and the modem to the mobile unit, and sets the communication direction mode to an opposite mode to the mode being set to the modem. The connection adaptor also instructs the mobile switching additional unit to set the mode to an opposite mode of the mode which has been set to the connection adaptor.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
237 words
A mobile communication system for data communication by a data terminal and a modem (modulator/demodulator) unit connected to a mobile unit communicating with radio channels through a mobile communication network including base stations, mobile radio communication channel control stations and mobile communication switching stations, said mobile communication system comprising: a plurality of mobile stations comprising said mobile unit for communicating with radio channels to said one of base sations; said data terminal for sending and receiving data information for data communication; said modem unit for connecting said data terminal, modulating and demodulating data signals for appropriate signal mode transmission, and setting a communication direction mode to either of an originating mode or an answering mode; and a connection adaptor for connecting said modem unit to said mobile unit by an initiation instruction of said mobile unit, setting said communication direction mode to an opposite mode of the mode being set in said modem unit, sending an instruction of said communication direction mode setting to said mobile communication switching station to set the opposite mode of the mode being set; and a mobile switching additional unit for controlling communication sequences of data communication using modems, being connected to said mobile communication switching station and initiated by a mobile data communication request information sent from said mobile unit, and setting its own communication direction mode by the instruction sent by said connection adaptor through said mobile communication switching station.

A mobile communication system for data communication by a data terminal and a modem (modulator/demodulator) unit connected to a mobile unit communicating with radio channels through a mobile communication network including base stations, mobile radio communication channel control stations and mobile communication switching stations, said mobile communication system comprising: a plurality of mobile stations comprising said mobile unit for communicating with radio channels to said one of base sations; said data terminal for sending and receiving data information for data communication; said modem unit for connecting said data terminal, modulating and demodulating data signals for appropriate signal mode transmission, and setting a communication direction mode to either of an originating mode or an answering mode; and a connection adaptor for connecting said modem unit to said mobile unit by an initiation instruction of said mobile unit, setting said communication direction mode to an opposite mode of the mode being set in said modem unit, sending an instruction of said communication direction mode setting to said mobile communication switching station to set the opposite mode of the mode being set; and a mobile switching additional unit for controlling communication sequences of data communication using modems, being connected to said mobile communication switching station and initiated by a mobile data communication request information sent from said mobile unit, and setting its own communication direction mode by the instruction sent by said connection adaptor through said mobile communication switching station.
Claim 3
Independent Claim
206 words
A method for controlling a mobile communication system for data communication by a data terminal and a modem (modulator/demodulator) unit, having a communication direction mode of either of an originating mode or an answering mode, connected with a connection adaptor to a mobile unit communicating with radio channels through a mobile communication network including base stations, mobile radio communication channel control stations and mobile communication switching stations having a mobile switching additional unit for controlling communication sequences of data communication using modems, said method comprising the steps of: requesting an initiation of data communication during voice communication through said mobile unit; connecting said data terminal and modem to said mobile unit through said connection adaptor; activating said mobile switching additional unit and making a path from said mobile switching additional unit to said connection adaptor; setting said communication direction mode of said connection adaptor to an opposite mode of said mode being set to said modem; sending an instruction of setting a communication direction mode from said connection adaptor to said mobile switching additional unit to an opposite mode of said mode having been set to said connection adaptor; and setting said communication direction mode of said mobile switching additional unit to a mode being instructed.
Claim 4
Independent Claim
