ABSTRACT:
A PCS switching system and wireless set that allow the wireless set to control the processing of incoming calls regardless of whether the base station on which the wireless set is registered has capacity to complete a call to the wireless set. When an incoming call is received for a wireless set, a central computer providing overall control of the PCS system directs this call to a paging zone controller of a paging zone in which the wireless set is registered on a base station. If the base station does not have capacity to handle that call, the paging zone controller transmits a page pending message via the base station and a paging channel to the wireless set informing the wireless set that a page is pending and that the wireless set must find a base station with idle capacity. If the wireless set cannot find a base station with idle capacity within the paging zone, the wireless set transmits to the PCS switching system via the paging zone controller a page pending response message that specifies the operations that the PCS system is to perform with respect to the incoming call. The wireless set can specify the call coverage system to which the incoming call is to be routed. In addition, The wireless set can specify a message that will be given to the calling party of the incoming call by the call coverage system. The wireless set can specify that the incoming call is to be placed on hold until the wireless set can find a base station having call capacity to complete the incoming call to the wireless set.
