Abstract
The system for providing location independent uniform service access for communication subscribers provides the capability to dynamically translate the local communications access paradigms to enable the subscriber to access the desired communications services without manually translating these access modalities from those known by the subscriber in their home service area to those used in this new locale. The implementation of the present system for providing location independent uniform service access for communication subscribers is illustrated as being resident in the subscriber's communication network access device. For example, the subscriber's wireless communication device can be equipped with an automated location determining capability, such as a Global Positioning System (GPS), or the location information can be obtained from the wireless base station, and a translation data base that maps the subscriber's local communications access paradigms into those corresponding communications access paradigms in use in the subscriber's present location. The subscriber's wireless communication device responds to the subscriber's data input indicative of an access to a desired commun…
