1. A method of controlling a non-stationary wireless network having a mobile base station, and at least one wireless appliance, said method comprising:
- determining a location of a mobile base station;
ascertaining regulatory requirements for the location;
determining if the operating settings for the for the mobile base station are the same as the regulatory requirements for the location; and
changing the operating settings of the mobile base station to conform with the regulatory requirements for said location if the regulatory requirements are different that the operating setting.

Abstract
A method of controlling the operating parameters of a non-stationary wireless network to conform to jurisdictional regulatory requirements is disclosed. A mobile base system determines its location and checks the operating parameters of the transceiver in the mobile base station against a database to determine whether the regulatory requirements have changed because of its location and to effect such a change. The mobile base station may alter the operating parameters of the transceiver in order to comply with regulatory requirements.

13. A network comprising
a first plurality of stationary base stations at a first location, said first plurality of stationary base stations operating in conformance with the regulatory requirements for said first location; -
a second plurality of stationary base stations at a second location, said second plurality of stationary base stations operating in conformance with the regulatory requirements for said second location, wherein the regulatory requirements for the first location are different that the regulatory requirements for the second location, a mobile base station with operating settings operating in conformance with the regulatory requirements for said first location; at least one wireless appliance in two-way communication with the mobile base station; means for determining the location of the mobile base station means for changing the operating settings of the mobile base station to conform to the regulatory requirements of said second location when the mobile base station enters the second location. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
