Features, especially of a call diversion feature, of a communications system are automatically controlled according to the position of a mobile terminal. The mobile terminal can be treated to a certain extent as an indicator of the position of a user carrying the mobile terminal with him/her. The position of the mobile terminal is determined by a global positioning system of the mobile terminal and is compared with a stored reference position. One or more features of the communications system are then controlled according to the results of this comparison.

Position-dependent control of features of a communications system

Given a transmission of digitized voice information (spi) compressed in originating communication systems (KS (S)) via a plurality of communication systems (KS) of a communication network (KN), the compressed voice information (spi&prime;) is matched to the switching bit rate of the transit communication systems (KS (T)) in the systems and are switched compressed. By avoiding the decompression and repeated compression of compressed voice information (spi&prime;), delay times and distortions of the voice information (spi) are reduced.
