An improved decoding, processing and delivery system for a centralized
wireless architecture is provided for advanced determination and display
of geographic information relating to a call origination party. The
improved system comprises a receiving device to receive the calling
number delivery (CND) message from a mobile station switching center; a
central data server for storage and retrieval of specific data from a
library for selectively determining the corresponding geographic
information of the call origination party; a transmission device for
sending data from the server; a receiving device in a wireless handset;
and a readout device for displaying the geographic information of the
incoming call. Accordingly, the improved system provides the user with
convenient and efficient display of geographic information related to
caller identification that is capable of determining an ever-increasing
number of area code and local telephone exchange number.
