Embodiment Construction

[0045] Cellular radio communication systems provide services that connect radio communication customers, each having a wireless subscriber device, to land-based and other radio communication customers served by a common carrier's public telephone network. In such a system, if the traffic is circuit switched, all incoming and outgoing calls are routed through a wireless network switch, commonly referred to as a Mobile Switching Center (MSC) or Mobile Telephone Switching Office (MTSO), where Each is connected to a Base Station Subsystem comprising one or more Base Station Controllers (BSC) and several Base Transceiver Stations (BTS). Each base transceiver station communicates with wireless user equipment located within its service area, the geographical distribution of the base transceiver stations enabling continuous service in an aggregated manner over a large service area. Each base transceiver station in the service area is connected by a communication link to a base station...

Abstract

The present non-terrestrial feature transparency system spoofs the Air-to-Ground Network and the ground-based cellular communication network into thinking that the wireless subscriber devices have no special considerations associated with their operation, even though the wireless subscriber devices are located on an aircraft in flight. This architecture requires that the non-terrestrial feature transparency system on board the aircraft replicate the full functionality of a given wireless subscriber device, that has a certain predetermined feature set from a ground-based wireless service provider, at another wireless subscriber device located within the aircraft. The Air-to-Ground Network transmits both the subscriber data(comprising voice and / or other data) as well as feature set data to thereby enable the wireless subscriber devices that are located in the aircraft to receive consistent wireless communication services.
