Definitions
- the present invention relates to a communication terminal according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- corded communication terminals are connected either directly via a cable or remotely via a network to a central communication device, for example a communication system (often also referred to as a communication server or switching system).
- a communication system for example a communication server or switching system.
- data is transmitted between a cordless communication terminal and the central communication device via a base station which is connected to the cordless communication terminal via an air interface.
- a connection of the base station to the central communication device is usually implemented via a separate, broadband, fixed connection.
- Data is transmitted between the cordless communication terminal and the base station via the air interface on the basis of known standards, such as DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System) or WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network).
- DECT Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications
- GSM Global System for Mobile Communications
- UMTS Universal Mobile Telecommunications System
- WLAN Wireless Local Area Network
- a cordless communication terminal registered in such a radio network can be switched as desired between the base stations of this radio network that are within radio range.
- the "handing over" of a cordless communication terminal from a first base station to a second base station with an existing connection is frequently referred to in the literature as "handover".
- a disadvantage of the arrangement described is that the creation of such a radio network consisting of a multiplicity of base stations is associated with a high outlay. 5
- the present invention is therefore based on the object of providing measures by which a simple connection of cordless terminals to a central communication device is made possible. According to the invention, the object is achieved on the basis of the features of the preamble of independent patent claim 1 by the characterizing features thereof.
- a major advantage of the invention is that a conventional "desktop terminal" is easily converted into a base station for the radio network - for example a WLAN network - by means of commercially available plug-in components and in this way a connection between the cordless terminal and the central communication device can be set up via the desktop terminal. It is therefore not necessary to set up additional base stations to enlarge the radio network to previously uncovered radio areas.
- Advantageous developments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.
- An advantage of the embodiments of the invention specified in the subclaims is that by using a WLAN network (wireless LAN) as the second network in the second network, a high data transmission rate can be achieved, so that a convenient transmission of multimedia data is also possible becomes.
- the communication terminal can also be used as a mobile communication terminal, so that the restrictions in the area of user-friendliness, battery life or hands-free convenience that exist with conventional cordless telephones are avoided.
- FIG. 1 a structural diagram for the schematic representation of the communication terminal according to the invention in a corresponding network infrastructure.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic illustration of the communication terminal KE-D according to the invention, which communicates via a first interface SSI with a first network N - for example an ISDN communication network or an IP-oriented (Internet Protocol) network - and via a second interface SS2 can be connected to a WLAN network WLAN-N.
- the communication terminal KE-D is a corded "desktop terminal".
- the second interface SS2 can be configured as a USB interface (Universal Serial Bus).
- a so-called USB WLAN dongle D can be connected to the communication terminal KE-D, via which a connection is established the WLAN network WLAN-N.
- the second interface SS2 can be designed as a PCMCIA interface (Personal Computer Memory Card International Association) and the USB WLAN dongle D as a PCMCIA WLAN plug-in card.
- PCMCIA interface Personal Computer Memory Card International Association
- PCMCIA WLAN plug-in cards are already available.
- the central communication device Z In the first network N there is a central communication device Z - often referred to in the literature as a central communication server or communication system - via which the communication terminal device KE is controlled. In the present exemplary embodiment, control is understood to mean, among other things, the implementation of communication device-specific performance features on the communication terminal KE. Furthermore, the central communication device Z is connected to the WLAN network WLAN-N via a WLAN base station WLAN-AP - often referred to in the literature as a WLAN access point.
- a wireless communication terminal KE-M is arranged in the WLAN network WLAN-N, from which a connection to the central communication device Z is to be established.
- the cordless communication terminal KE-M is, for example, a cordless telephone, or a data processing device, for example a laptop, which is equipped with a connection to the WLAN network WLAN-N.
- a first connection VI is established with the WLAN base station WLAN-AP and from there with the central communication device Z.
- the cordless communication terminal KE-M is located outside the radio cell of the WLAN base station WLAN-AP, normally no connection can be established with the central communication device Z. be built. This is indicated in the figure by the dashed line representing the first connection VI between the cordless communication terminal KE-M and the WLAN base station WLAN-AP.
- the communication terminal KE-D is automatically set up as a WLAN base station when the USB WLAN dongle D is plugged into the WLAN network WLAN-N. It is thus possible, as an alternative to the first connection VI, to set up a second connection V2 between the cordless communication terminal KE-M and the communication terminal KE-D, the communication terminal KE-D taking over the function of a WLAN base station.
- a bidirectional data transmission between the cordless communication terminal KE-M and the central communication device Z thus takes place via the USB WLAN dongle D, the communication terminal KE-D and the first communication network N.
- a desktop terminal device present in the meeting room can be used as a WLAN base station.
- the transmission bandwidth available between the cordless communication terminal KE-M and the central communication device Z is limited by the connection of the communication terminal KE to the first network N. If, for example, there is an ISDN-oriented communication network to which the communication terminal KE-D is connected via a So interface, there is a maximum of 64 kBit / s when using a user data channel and when using both "user data channels". times 128 kbit / s for data transmission. Since voice data is usually exchanged, this data transfer rate is sufficient in most cases. In contrast, if the first network (N) is designed as an IP-oriented network, a higher data transmission rate is available, so that multimedia data can also be exchanged comfortably.
- the communication terminal KE-D according to the invention can be used directly - i.e. can be connected to the central communication device Z without interposing the network N.
- the communication terminal KE-D can also be operated as a mobile communication terminal.
- bidirectional data transmission takes place between the communication terminal KE-D and the central communication device Z not via the first network N, but via the USB WLAN dongle D
- the KE-D communication terminal can also be used as a mobile communication terminal avoids the restrictions in the area of user-friendliness, battery life or hands-free convenience that exist with conventional cordless communication terminals.
- a power supply of the communication terminal KE-D according to the invention takes place - as is customary with desktop terminals - by means of a separate power supply (not shown).
- a separate power supply not shown.
