A telecommunication system incorporates individual station instruments simplified
by wireless operation, voice dialing, prepaid and custom-programmed operating characteristics,
all enabled by cooperative operation with supporting central equipment. Wireless
operation of the central equipment involves a multiple port wireless platform along
with other units for interfacing a multitude of mobile station instruments simultaneously
for interactive audio communication to: program the operating characteristics as
with respect to language, out call, anti-fraud and available data, as well as to
regulate, control, monitor and record operations of the instruments, and bridge
communication with selected remote terminals through the public switched telephone
network. Message capability, rapid dialing, emergency abort to an operator station
and security features supplement the basic system.
