Abstract
A communication zone is defined by a plurality of cells, which are separated from one another and has respective fixed base stations. The base stations in the first cell and the last cell are capable of bidirectional communication with a mobile station, while other base stations are capable of unidirectional communication. The base stations are connected to a zone control station, which controls communications with the mobile station within the zone.
