Cellular private branch exchanges
First Claim
1. A private network of interconnected cellular private branch exchanges, said private network being configured for coupling to a public switching network for facilitating cellular communication for a multiplicity of mobile station units, comprising:
- a first cellular private branch exchange unit configured for coupling to at least a first base station subsystem, including;
a first private mobile service switching center for providing, in a cellular domain, mobility management for a first plurality of mobile station units of said multiplicity of mobile station units through said first base station subsystem,a first private branch exchange block coupled to said first private mobile service switching center, said first private branch exchange block representing a first cross-connect node capable of cross-connecting a first cellular bearer data channel with a second cellular bearer data channel for calls between a first mobile station unit of said first plurality of mobile station units and a first phone set, said first phone set representing a phone set in one of said private network and said public switching network, said first mobile station unit being configured for communicating with said first base station subsystem on said first bear data channel, anda first registry coupled to at least one of said first private mobile switching center and said first private branch exchange block, said first registry storing subscriber information pertaining to said first plurality of mobile station units, thereby creating a first private cellular network; and
a second cellular private branch exchange unit coupled to said first cellular private branch exchange unit, said second cellular private branch exchange unit configured for coupling to at least a second base station subsystem, including;
a second private mobile service switching center for providing, in said cellular domain, mobility management for a second plurality of mobile station units of said multiplicity of mobile station units through said second base station subsystem,a second private branch exchange block coupled to said second private mobile service switching center, said second private branch exchange block representing a second cross-connect node capable of cross-connecting a third cellular bearer data channel with a fourth cellular bearer data channel for calls between a second mobile station unit of said second plurality of mobile station units and a second phone set, said second phone set representing a phone set in one of said private network and said public switching network, said second mobile station unit being configured for communicating with said second base station subsystem on said third bear data channel, anda second registry coupled to at least one of said second private mobile switching center and said second private branch exchange block, said second registry storing subscriber information pertaining to said second plurality of mobile station units, thereby creating a second private cellular network.

Abstract
A cellular private branch exchange for facilitating cellular communication for a first plurality of mobile station units, which includes a first base station subsystem for communicating with a first and a second mobile station unit of the first plurality of mobile station units on respectively a first and a second cellular bearer data channel. The cellular private branch exchange further includes a cellular private branch exchange unit coupled to the first base station subsystem. In turn, the cellular private branch exchange unit includes a private mobile-services switching center for providing mobility management for the first plurality of mobile station units, the private mobile-services switching center representing a first cross-connect node capable of cross-connecting the first bearer data channel with the second bearer data channel for calls between the first and the second mobile station units. Further the cellular private branch exchange unit includes a private registry coupled to the private mobile-services switching center, the private registry storing subscriber information pertaining to the first plurality of mobile station units.
