Abstract
A monitoring and command system for use in a wireless communications system including remotely located transceivers for transmitting and receiving telephony signals to and from wireless telephones wherein each of the remote transceivers is connected to a broadband distribution network. A central location includes remote antenna signal processors connected to the broadband distribution network and a control unit is connected to the remote antenna signal processor, and the monitoring and command system controls operations of the remote antenna signal processors and the remote transceivers. The control unit exchanges control and monitoring messages with the remote antenna signal processors, and each exchange of messages comprises a completed exchange of messages with one remote antenna signal processor before initiation of an exchange of messages with another remote antenna signal processor. Each remote antenna signal processor exchanges control and monitoring messages with the remote transceivers associated therewith, and the messages to all associated remote transceivers are interspersed. Each control and monitoring message includes a message number field identifying the meaning of …
