Abstract
To make it easier for a subscriber to operate a wireless phone and a transceiver in a vehicle, the transceiver transmits an identification to the wireless phone within a limited transmission and reception range. When the wireless phone receives this identification, it transmits its identification data to the transceiver to inscribe itself in the transceiver. Alternatively, the wireless phone transmits its identification data within a limited transmission and reception range, and the transceiver receives this identification data and that the wireless phone is inscribed (i.e., registered) with the transceiver. The transceiver acts as interface for calls to and from the wireless phone.
