A wireless-access communications system such as a CDMA cellular radio-telephonesystem (FIG. 2) comprises a packet-switched communications network (202 207, 201) that interconnects cells (base stations; 202) with each other and with the public telephone network (100). Traffic of individual calls is packetized and packet-, bearing frames (300 in FIG. 7) of a plurality of calls are then statistically multiplexed and frame-relayed through the network to yield the high capacity efficiency, and speed of traffic transport and handoff required for a CDMA cellular system.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed April 21, 1992 and granted June 17, 1997. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended April 21, 2012.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 21, 2014.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
