Abstract

A system and method is provided for monitoring remote base station transceiver subsystems (BTSs) in a concurrent real-time operating system (CROS) environment in a code division multiple access (CDMA) or a personal communication service (PCS) system. The method includes the steps of transmitting remote control information including a designated identification (ID) to a target call control processor (CCP) from a source call control processor. A confirmation message is sent to the source CCP from the target CCP, when the designated ID of the remote control information matches control information associated with the target CCP. A remote control command is transmitted to the target CCP in accordance with the confirmation message. Response information is prepared in the target CCP in response to the remote control command. An inter-process communication message buffer is assigned as a print buffer for serial transmission of the response information, by controlling a shell of the CROS. The serial response information is outputted to an indicator device associated with the source CCP.
