LAN based wireless communications system
First Claim
1. A computer-readable storage device, for use at a wireless adjunct device, comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations, for processing incoming calls, comprising:
- waiting, during a wait state of the wireless adjunct device, for a call to route;
receiving, at the wireless adjunct device, the call being directed to a mobile unit;
entering, upon receiving the call, an incoming call setup state for the wireless adjunct device;
instructing, during the incoming call setup state, a radio transmit point to page the mobile unit;
entering, after instructing the radio transmit point to page the mobile unit, a wait for response state of the wireless adjunct device;
performing, during the wait for response state, and if the wireless adjunct device receives a response from the radio transmit point, additional operations comprising;
entering a perform call setup state during which the call is setup with the mobile unit via the radio transmit point;
entering a routing state during which the wireless adjunct device routes voice traffic of the call via the radio transmit point; and
returning, in response to the call ending, to the wait state; and
ending, during the wait for response state, if the wireless adjunct device does not receive a response from the radio transmit point the wireless adjunct device, the paging and returning to the wait state.

Abstract
A method of routing calls from a mobile unit to a destination location can include registering the mobile unit with a wireless adjunct, wherein the wireless adjunct is in communication with a switching unit and a packet based network and is operable to receive data from the switching unit and place the data, in packetized form, on the packet based network. The method can further include responding to a call setup request from the mobile unit and querying a subscriber database to determine if the mobile unit is a resident or a guest. If the mobile unit is a resident, communications data can be routed from the mobile unit through the switching unit to a first destination location. If the mobile unit is a guest, communications data can be routed from the mobile unit through an RF source to a second destination location.

9. A computer-readable storage device, for use at a radio transmit point, comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
-
waiting, during a wait state of the radio transmit point, for a page request from a wireless adjunct device to page a mobile unit for a call; entering, in response to receiving the request from the wireless adjunct device, a page state of the radio transmit point; paging, during the page state, the mobile unit; entering, after paging the mobile unit, a wait for response state of the radio transmit point; performing, during the wait for response state, and if the radio transmit point receives a response from the mobile unit, additional operations comprising; entering a perform call setup state during which the radio transmit point sets up the call with the mobile unit; entering a routing state during which the radio transmit point routes voice traffic of the call to the mobile unit; and retuning, in response to the call ending, to the wait state; and ending, during the wait for response state, if the radio transmit point does not receive a response from the mobile unit, the paging and returning to the wait state. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A computer-readable storage device medium, for use at a wireless adjunct device, comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations, for routing an outgoing call, comprising:
-
waiting, during a wait state of the wireless adjunct device, for an outgoing call to route; receiving an outgoing call initiated by a mobile unit; entering, upon receiving the outgoing call, an outgoing call setup state of the wireless adjunct device; querying, during the outgoing call setup state, a subscriber database associated with the wireless adjunct device to determine whether the mobile unit is one of a guest and a resident; performing, if the mobile unit is a guest, first additional operations comprising; setting up the outgoing call with a radio frequency source; entering an radio frequency source routing state during which the wireless adjunct device routes voice traffic of the outgoing call to the radio frequency source; and returning to the wait state after the outgoing call is terminated; and performing, if the mobile unit is a resident, second additional operations comprising; setting up the outgoing call with a private branch exchange; entering a private branch exchange routing state during which the wireless adjunct device routes voice traffic of the outgoing call to the private branch exchange; and returning to the wait state after the outgoing call is terminated. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
