  • mobile unit 19 determines that mobile telephone 20 is turned off, mobile unit 19 automatically turns on mobile telephone 20 (step 128) .
  • mobile unit 19 may be configured such that the subscriber manually turns on the mobile telephone 20. If the mobile telephone 20 is on, or once it is on, mobile unit 19 instructs mobile telephone 20 to automatically dial the telephone number of UMS 24 (step 130) . Alternatively, the subscriber could dial this telephone number manually.
  • Mobile telephone 20 attempts to handshake with the MTSO 16 (step 132) , or a remote MTSO 22 if located in an area not serviced by MTSO 16. Mobile telephone 20 then determines whether the attempt to handshake is successful (step 134) .

If the attempt to handshake is not successful, the mobile unit 19 must be located in an area that cannot be reached either reliably or at all by the cellular network.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un système de télécommunications permettant la transmission de messages via un canal téléphonique cellulaire et via un canal d'appel de personnes à destination d'un poste mobile disposant à la fois d'un téléphone mobile et d'un récepteur d'appel de personnes. Le système de télécommunications reçoit un message de données destiné à un abonné en provenance d'un poste d'appel. Ce message est acheminé vers un central de rattachement de téléphonie mobile ou 'MTSO' (Mobile Telephone Switching Office) via un central principal de commutation ou 'CSO' (Central Switching Office). Le MTSO peut émettre un message de données à destination du téléphone mobile du poste mobile via un canal téléphonique cellulaire. Il peut également envoyer à un système de messagerie universelle ou 'UMS' (Universal Messaging System) un message à envoyer au récepteur d'appel de personnes d'un poste mobile via un canal d'appel de personnes. Lorsque le système est incapable de remettre le message de données au téléphone mobile via le canal cellulaire, il peut stocker le message au niveau de l'UMS ou du MTSO et envoyer un message d'avertissement au poste mobile via le canal d'appel de personnes signalant qu'un message a été stocké en vue d'une consultation ultérieure. Autrement, le système peut envoyer la totalité du message de données via le canal d'appel de personnes.
