Abstract
A telecommunications system that performs meet-me paging. The telecommunications system of this invention includes a paging system that is designed to receive calls from meet-me paging system subscribers. Once such a call is received, the system parks the call on hold while sending a page to the subscriber. The subscriber can then call the paging terminal to automatically be connected with the calling party. The system further includes a cordless telephone-2 system wherein each of the system subscribers is further provided with a portable handset from which he can access the publicly switched telephone network. Subscribers with the handset, upon receiving a meet-me page, can automatically dial the paging terminal to be connected to their calling parties. Thus, the telecommunications system of this invention provides a convenient means of providing subscribers with portable telephone service that allows them to both make outgoing calls and receive incoming calls.
