Abstract
A private base station location register supports the registering of multiple mobile stations at a private base station and provides control information for enabling a personalized call delivery feature at the private base station for each registered mobile station. When registration of a mobile station with a private base station is performed, the private base station location register receives mobile station information from a private base station along with assignment of a local unique address for each one of the multiple mobile stations registering with the private base station. When the private base station receives an incoming call for a particular one of the mobile stations, this local unique address associated with the particular station is provided by the base station location register as part of the incoming call information also received by the base station thereby allowing the base station to distinctively alert the particular mobile station. By receiving a local unique address for each of the mobile stations from the base station location register, the private base station is also able to advantageously offer various intelligent features which are personalized according to customer needs. For example, a calling party may have his or her name displayed on the reached mobile station for the convenience of the user at this mobile station.
