1. A system for providing telecommunications access comprising:
- a wireline assembly operable to provide access to a telecommunications system for one or more wireline subscribers;
a wireless assembly operable to process an encoded signal carrying one or more trunk groups of channels of telecommunications data;
a common control and switching system coupled to the wireline assembly, the wireless assembly, and a switched network, the common control and switching assembly operable to establish and control telecommunications channels between the wireline assembly, the wireless assembly, and the switched network; and
the common control and switching assembly includes;
a data bus configured to carry one or more channels of telecommunications data;
a timing control processor operable to control the transfer of data over the data bus so as to regulate the timing of the data transferred over the data bus;
one or more switches coupled to the data bus, the wireless assembly, and the wireline assembly, each switch operable to transfer channels of telecommunications data to the wireline assembly and the wireless assembly from the data bus; and
a timing control unit coupled to the data bus, the wireline assembly, and the wireless assembly, the timing control unit operable to transmit a timing signal to tie wireline assembly and the wireless assembly for use in receiving the channels of telecommunications data from the switch(es).

Abstract
A system for providing wireless telecommunications access is presented. The system includes a wireline assembly that provides access to a telecommunications system for one or more wireline subscribers. The system also includes a wireless assembly that provides access to a telecommunications system for one or more wireless subscribers. A common control and switching system is connected to the wireline assembly, the wireless assembly, and a switched network. The common control and switching assembly establishes telecommunications channels between the wireline assembly, the wireless assembly, and the switched network, and controls the telecommunications channels.

9. A system for providing telecommunications access comprising:
-
a wireline assembly operable to provide access to a telecommunications system for one or more wireline subscribers;
a wireless assembly operable to process an encoded signal carrying one or more trunk groups of channels of telecommunications data;
a common control and switching system coupled to the wireline assembly, the wireless assembly, and a switched network, the common control and switching assembly operable to establish and control telecommunications channels between the wireline assembly, the wireless assembly, and the switched network; and
a radio frequency assembly coupled to the wireless assembly and an antenna, where the radio frequency assembly is operable to unconvert an outgoing modulated signal received from the wireless assembly from a signal processing frequency to a transmission frequency for transmission over the antenna, and to down-convert an incoming modulated signal received from the antenna from the transmission frequency to the signal processing frequency. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)
