Mobile communication system and method for registering location of a mobile terminal in the mobile communication system
First Claim
1. A mobile communication system comprising a plurality of base stations, each of said base stations forming a radio zone, and a mobile terminal that moves in said radio zones, wherein said mobile terminal comprises location registration means for registering a location of said mobile terminal to one of said base stations, said location registration means comprising:
- means for receiving a plurality of signals from said base stations;
means for detecting reception levels of said signals, selecting a largest reception level and a second largest reception level from among said reception levels and generating identification information indicating a base station having transmitted a signal of said largest reception level based on said signal of selected largest reception level;
means for calculating a difference between said largest reception level and said second largest reception level;
means for comparing said difference and a present threshold value; and
location registration establishment means for registering the location of said mobile terminal to a base station indicated by said identification information when said difference is larger than said threshold value, where said location registration establishment means does not register location of said mobile terminal to said base station indicated by said identification information when said difference is smaller than said threshold value.

Abstract
A mobile terminal registration system is provided for a mobile communication system having a plurality of base stations making respective radio zones and a mobile terminal that moves in the radio zone and registers its location to the base stations. The mobile terminal comprises a location registration section for detecting reception levels of signals from the base stations, calculating a difference of the largest reception level and the second reception level and registering the mobile terminal location to a base station that transmits the largest reception level signal if the difference is larger than a threshold value.

4. A mobile communication system comprising an exchange office, a plurality of base stations, each of said base stations makes a radio zone, and a mobile terminal that moves in a said radio zones, where said mobile terminal registers a location of said mobile terminal to a predetermined base station and said exchange office receives location information of said mobile terminal via said predetermined base station and said exchange office the confirms location of said mobile terminal, wherein said mobile terminal comprises:
-
means for receiving a plurality of signals from a plurality of base stations; means for detecting reception levels of said signals, selecting a largest reception level and a second largest reception level from among said reception levels and generating identification information indicating a base station having transmitted a signal of said largest reception level according to selected largest reception level; means for calculating an absolute value of a difference between said largest reception level and said second largest reception level; means for comparing said absolute value of said difference and a preset threshold value; storage means for storing an identifier of a base station to which the location of said mobile terminal has been registered; means for comparing a base station indicated by said identification information and a base station indicated by said identifier when said absolute value of said difference is larger than said threshold value where said means does not register location of said mobile terminal when said base station indicated by said identification information and said base station indicated by said identifier stored in said storage means are the same, and for registering the location of a mobile terminal when said base station indicated by said identification information and said base station indicated by said identifier stored in said storage means are different, where said means does not register the location of said mobile terminal when said absolute value of said difference is smaller than said threshold value; and said exchange office comprises; location display means having a map indicating divisions of said base stations for displaying and for displaying the location of said mobile terminal in a division of said base station according to a signal from a base station to which the location of said mobile terminal has been registered.

5. A mobile communication system comprising a plurality of base stations, each of said base stations forming a radio zone, and a mobile terminal that moves in said radio zones, wherein said mobile terminal comprises location registration means for registering a location of said mobile terminal to a base station, said location registration means comprising:
-
means for receiving two signals from two base stations; means for detecting reception levels of said signals; means for calculating a difference between two reception levels of the two signals from among said signals; means for comparing said difference and a preset threshold value; storage means for storing an identifier of a base station to which the location of a mobile terminal has been registered; means for comparing a base station having transmitted a signal of a larger reception level and a base station indicated by said identifier when said difference is larger than said threshold value where said means does not register the location of said mobile terminal when said base station having transmitted a signal of a larger reception level and said base station indicated by said identifier are the same, and for registering the location of a mobile terminal to a base station having transmitted a signal of a larger reception level when said base station having transmitted a signal of a larger reception level and said base station indicated by said identifier stored in said storage means are different, where said means does not register the location of said mobile terminal when said difference is smaller than said threshold value. - View Dependent Claims (6)

7. A method for registering location of a mobile terminal in a mobile communication system having a plurality of base stations, each of said base stations makes a radio zone, and a mobile terminal that moves in a plurality of radio zones, in said mobile terminal, the method comprising steps of:
-
detecting a plurality of reception levels of a plurality of signals from said base stations; selecting a largest reception level and a second largest reception level from among detected reception levels; calculating a difference between said largest reception level and said second largest reception level; and registering the location of said mobile terminal to a base station having transmitted a signal having said largest reception level when said difference is larger than a preset threshold value; and displaying location of said mobile terminal in a division of said base station on a map indicating divisions of said base stations in said exchange office based on a signal from a base station to which the location of said mobile terminal has been registered. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)
