MOBILE SERVICE CONTROL POINT FOR INTELLIGENT AND MULTIMEDIA MOBILE COMMUNICATIONS

To provide personal, intelligent, and multimedia services through a mo bile communications network, a Mobile Service Control Point (M-SCP) wa s developed, which performs both the location register and service con trol functions. The M-SCP was constructed on a common platform to allo w quick introduction of new services. Software techniques to reduce th e frequency of process-switching, assign the highest priority to real- time tasks, and operate a multiple-CPU structure provide faster real-t ime processing. This is confirmed by computer simulation and research in the field.
