Abstract
Techniques for enhancing radiocommunication systems, e.g., radio local loop systems, are described. Radio local loop systems replace a portion of the wired connections between a local exchange and, for example, a telephone set, with a wireless connection. Like conventional wired systems, remote unit mobility is limited. However, the present invention supports system reconfigurations, such as cell splitting, in a manner which obviates the conventional necessity of reprogramming each remote unit in a radio local loop system. Backup cells can also be provided to enhance system reliability.
