Abstract
A notification apparatus 201 for a cellular communication system 100 comprises a call detector 209 which detects a communication initialization involving a first subscriber 101. A notification processor 211 determines if a communication notification requirement is stored for the first subscriber. If so, the notification processor proceeds to determine a second subscriber 115 associated with the first subscriber and the communication notification requirement. A notification message generator 215 then generates a notification message and transmits this to the second subscriber. The notification message comprises an indication of the communication initialization and may specifically be a text message indicating the nature of the communication and the involved parties.
