Abstract
A system in which a private base station supports the registering of multiple mobile stations and generates a personalized call delivery feature for each registered mobile station is provided. Each mobile station registers separately with the base station when within communication range of the base station. When registration of a mobile station with a private base station is performed, the private base station generates a local unique address for each one of the multiple mobile stations registering with the private base station. This unique address for a registered particular mobile station is also sent to the private base station location register. 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 portable 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 obtaining a local unique address for each of the mobile stations, 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.
