Abstract
In a communications system comprising a number of base stations, each base station communicating over a shared communication channel with a plurality of registered stations and controlling the network cell formed by said plurality of registered stations, a method is described for dynamically registering and deregistering mobile stations. Each station owns a unique address and is allocated a local identifier at registration time. Each network cell owns a unique cell identifier known to all registered stations belonging to this network cell. Base stations manage cell members data uniquely associating the unique address and the local identifier corresponding to each one of the mobile stations belonging to their network cell. A registration request is sent to a selected base station by a registering mobile station, comprising the unique cell identifier of the network cell controlled by the selected base station and the unique address of the registering mobile station; the selected base station detects in its cell members data any conflicting registered station whose unique address matches the unique address of the registering mobile station and sends an address check packet to any conf…
