Abstract

A method for matching subscriber states in a network in which a public land mobile network and a wired/wireless private network and a method for performing a call processing operation to manage state information of ANs (Access Nodes) according to incoming call reception and outgoing call transmission in a private network when a high-speed wireless data system uses the public and private networks. Where data communication is performed between two ANs coupled to the private network, the state information of the two ANs is updated according to states of the ANs performing the data communication. Even though one of the two ANs makes a call setup request through the public network, the number of paging message transmissions can be reduced and an error such as a paging non-response can be prevented. As the state information of the ANs within the private network is transferred to the public network from a mobile communication system, in which the private and public networks are interworked, the public network can identify the states of subscribers of the private network located within a cell shared between the public and private networks, and thus a public/private mobile communication service can be quickly and smoothly provided.

when an access node coupled to a wireless private network makes a request for a call connection with another access node coupled to the wireless private network, carrying out a call connection between the access nodes and providing a high-speed wireless data service for the access nodes;

updating state information of the access nodes to busy state information;

when the high-speed wireless data service for the access nodes is completed, carrying out a call connection release; and

updating the state information of the access nodes to idle state information according to the call connection release.

3. A method for performing a call processing operation to manage state information of access nodes in a high-speed wireless data system, comprising the steps of:

when an access node coupled to a wireless private network makes a request for a call connection with another access node coupled to the wireless private network, allowing a private access network controller to carry out a call connection between the access nodes and to provide a high-speed wireless data service for the access nodes;

allowing the private access network controller to request that state information of the access nodes be updated;

allowing a data location register to update the state information of the access nodes to busy state information according to a state information update request;

when the high-speed wireless data service for the access nodes is completed, carrying out a call connection release between the access nodes and allowing the private access network controller to request that the state information of the access nodes be updated; and

allowing the data location register to update the state information of the access nodes to idle state information according to another state information update request.

4. The method of claim 3, with the data location register storing the information associated with the access node requesting for the call connection being equal to the information associated with the other access node.

5. The method of claim 4, with the private access network controller and the data location register being configured to being based on an Internet protocol.

6. The method of claim 5, with the private access network controller sending a state information update request message including current state information of the originating access node and the terminating access node to the data location register.

7. The method of claim 5, with the private access network controller sending a request message indicating the state information of the originating access node and the terminating access node to be updated to busy state information and the data location register searching for the subscriber information upon receiving the state information update request and updating the access node state information to busy state information.

8. A wireless data system, comprising:

a first access node receiving a first network service;

a second access node receiving a second network service;

a first private access network transceiver system setting up a session when the first access node moves within the wireless service area of the first private access network transceiver;
