ABSTRACT:
A selective call receiver system includes a plurality of base sites capable of simultaneous operation. Each base site includes a transmitter and a base receiver capable of measuring the signal strength of a received signal. A controller coupled to the plurality of base sites, forwards an address to the plurality of base sites. The transmitters thereafter, simultaneously transmit the address to at least one of a plurality of selective call receivers having acknowledge-back capability. At least one of the plurality of base receivers receive an acknowledge-back signal from the at least one of the selective call receivers responding to the transmitted address. The signal strength of the acknowledge-back signal is detected by the plurality of base receivers receiving the acknowledge-back signal. The controller has a determining circuit for determining a value representing the signal strength of the acknowledge-back signal, and an encoder, coupled to the determining circuit, encoding a single copy of the message in a first format or a second format. The encoder encodes the message to derive the single copy of the message in the first format when the value determined by the determining circuit is above a predetermined level and encodes the message with an error correcting code to derive the single copy of the message in the second format when the value determined by the determining circuit is below the predetermined level. The controller thereafter forwards the single copy of the encoded message to the base site.
