A communications controller is disclosed for use in a wireless communication system having a plurality of antennas capable of simulcasting forward-channel messages at a first downtilt angle below horizon and receiving reverse-channel messages at a second downtilt angle, wherein the second downtilt angle is less than the first downtilt angle. The communications controller, which is associated with the plurality of antennas, is capable of (i) scheduling transmission of ones of the reverse-channel messages at a same frequency in a same time slot, and (ii) receiving reverse-channel messages of two communication units proximate a local antenna at separate more remote antennas in response to the second downtilt angle of the separate more remote antennas.

System for scheduling reverse-channel messages in narrowband communications systems and method of operation

System for scheduling reverse-channel messages in narrowband

A messaging system (10) is provided that comprises an RF transmission system (12). The RF transmission system (12) comprises an RF control system (14) which receives message traffic from a messaging gateway system (20). The messaging gateway system (20) receives messages in a variety of protocols from remote messaging system (30). The messaging gateway system (20) translates the messages received from remote messaging system (30) and constructs messages to be delivered to subscriber devices (28) through the RF transmission system (12). A subscriber device (28) can issue commands that are transmitted to the remote messaging system (30) or to remote system controller (32) controlling a remote-controlled system (34).
