Active signalling transmitter control
First Claim
1. A transmitter, having controllable transmission functions, for transmitting coded message signals to a plurality of portable communication receivers, the coded message signals including message information interleaved with transmitter control signals and receiver control signals, the transmitter comprising:
- receiving means, coupled to a communication link, for receiving the coded message signals transmitted thereon;
decoding means, coupled to said receiving means, for decoding the transmitter control signals and one or more of the receiver control signals, deriving transmission control signals in response thereto; and
transmitting means, responsive to the transmission control signals for transmitting the coded message signals.

Abstract
A transmitter, having controllable transmission functions is described for transmitting coded message signals to a plurality of portable communications receivers, the coded message signals including and message information interleaved with transmitter control signals synchornized with the message information. The transmitter includes a receiving section for receiving the coded message signals from an input source for transmission. A decoder which couples to the receiving section decodes the synchronized transmitter control signals to derive transmission control signals. A transmitter section, responsive to the transmission control signals, transmits the coded message signals. Additional transmission control signals may also be derived from one or more receiver control signals embedded in the coded message signals.
