1. A method comprising:
- establishing a first communication path between a first user station and a first base station, the first communication path employing a spread-spectrum communication technique;
establishing a second communication path between a second user station and a second base station, the second communication path employing a spread spectrum communication technique; and
establishing a third communication pat between the first base station and the second base station via a private access telephone network coupled between the first base station and the second base station.

Abstract
A system for accessing a telephone system, in which a set of user stations are matched with a set of base stations for connection to a telephone network. Each base station may be coupled directly or indirectly to the telephone network and may be capable of initiating or receiving calls on the telephone network. Each user station may comprise a spread-spectrum transmitter or receiver and may be capable of dynamic connection to selected base stations. A plurality of base stations may be coupled to a private exchange telephone system for coupling user stations in calls outside the telephone network.

5. A wireless communication system comprising:
a control circuit communicatively coupled with a base station transceiver, the base station transceiver operative to facilitate communications with one or more user stations via spread spectrum wireless signals, wherein the control circuit is configured to selectively connect the base station transceiver with one or more additional base station transceivers via a private access telephone network and connect the base station transceiver to a public communication network. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9)
- 10. A wireless network comprising equipment configured to route communications between user stations, at least one of the user stations communicating with the network using wireless spread spectrum communication signals, wherein the equipment is adapted to selectively route the communications through a private access telephone network to facilitate handoff of the at least one of the user stations communicating using wireless spread spectrum communication signals between base stations.
