Abstract
A system and method are provided for creating a picocell service alternate to a wireless network service. The method comprises: detecting a multiple access (MA) wireless communications network, such is a terrestrial or satellite network; and, generating a first picocell in response to detecting the MA wireless network. Typically, the method comprises receiving requests for picocell service from mobile stations, in response to generating the first picocell. In one aspect, the service requests made by the mobile stations are denied. In another aspect, the method further comprises: establishing a first picocell MSC; and, providing network services to mobile stations via the first picocell, in response to the requests for picocell service. For example, the first picocell MSC may provide the same network services that are provided by a conventional terrestrial network, for example. Alternately, the method establishes an alternative wireless network (a second picocell) to provide services.

17. A picocell system alternate to a multiple access wireless network service, the system comprising:
a first picocell including;
a sniffer having a receiver to accept multiple access MA wireless telephone network communications and an output to supply detected network classification signals; and
a spoofer including;
a controller having an input to accept the classification signals and an output to supply a spoofed signal responsive to the classification signals; and
a transmitter having an input to accept the spoofed signal and an output to transmit first picocell control signals in response to the spoofed signals. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)
