band ( 14 ghz ) signal transmitted from the center station 102 and received by the antenna 200 are attenuated by the frequency filter 221 . thereafter , the signal is amplified by the reception amplifier 217 , and converted into a signal of the 1 ghz frequency by the down - converter 218 . the signal converted into the 1 ghz frequency is decoded by the decoder 219 , and supplied to the multiple separator 222 . the multiple separator 222 extracts , from the received signal , the above - mentioned reference frame 1 and the portable terrestrial station frame 2 having its own portable terrestrial station id 2b , and sends the frames 1 and 2 to the selection portion 251 . the selection portion 251 performs an error correcting process upon the sent frames 1 and 2 . then , the selection portion 251 sends the contents 1a to 1d of the reference frame 1 , the permission flag 2c of the portable terrestrial station frame 2 , and the control data 2d - 24 of the message data 2d of the portable terrestrial station frame 2 to the control portion 250 , while the selection portion 251 sends the audio data 2d - 21 of the message data 2d , the calling - sound data 2d - 23 and the busy - sound data 2d - 22 of the portable terrestrial station frame 2 to the line connection control portion 230 . the kind of data is identified by its respective message id . the control portion 250 controls the operations of the respective portions , such as the display operation on the display 260 , in accordance with the contents of the received reference frame center station id 1c or control data 1d , and the permission flag 2c and the control data 2d - 24 of the portable terrestrial station frame 2 . for example , when the permission flag 2c shows that the transmission is not permitted , the control portion 250 prevents the transmitter - receiver 210 from transmitting . in addition , the control portion 250 makes the display 260 display the received center station id . on the other hand , the line connection control portion 230 controls the telephone portion 240 in accordance with the contents of the data received from the selection portion 251 . this control on the telephone portion 240 includes the control on the output of a calling sound based on the calling -

band , from any of the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 through the communication satellite . this signal is decoded so as to be separated into the transmission frames 5 of every portable terrestrial station 107 , and then sent to the selection portion 340 . the selection portion 340 performs an error correction process upon the separated transmission frame 5 of every portable terrestrial station 107 , and at the same time sends the message data 5c and the portable terrestrial station id 5b of the control data 5c - 24 included in the transmission frame 5 to the control portion 330 . the other message data 5c - 21 to 5c - 22 are sent to the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 through a line corresponding to the extension corresponding to the portable terrestrial station id 5b included in the transmission frame 5 , which line is selected on the basis of the portable terrestrial station id 5b included in the transmission frame 5 and on the basis of the correspondence between portable terrestrial station ids and extensions established by the control portion 330 in advance . on the basis of the contents of the received message data 5c , the extension assigned to each portable terrestrial station 107 , that is , the extension corresponding to the line through which the message data has been received is controlled by the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 . this control on the extension includes the control on the dc loop control of the extension corresponding to the control data 5c - 24 received as the message data from the corresponding portable terrestrial station 107 , the control on the output , from the extension , of a dtmf sound corresponding to dial key information , and the control on the decoding of audio data and the output thereof to the extension . on the contrary , the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 detects the state of very extension . that is , for example , the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 detects the existence of a calling - sound signal or the existence of a busy sound on the extension . in accordance with the detected state , the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 generates the calling - sound data 2d - 23 or the busy - sound data 2d - 22 , and sends the message data 2d , in which the message ids 2d - 13 and 2d - 12 are added to these generated data , to the selection portion 350 through a line corresponding to the extension . in addition , the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 encodes the audio signal received from the extension , and sends , to the selection portion 350 , the message data 2d in which the message id 2d - 11 is added to the encoded audio data 2d - 21 . the control portion 330 also sends , to the selection portion 350 , the message data 2d in which message ids are added to respective messages to be sent to the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 individually , together with the portable terrestrial station ids 2b of the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 which are the destinations of the message data . in addition , the control portion 330 generates the above - mentioned reference frame , and sends it to the selection portion 350 . the selection portion 350 receives the message data 2d ( 2d - 24 ) proper to the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 from the control portion 330 , in addition to the message data 2d ( 2d - 21 to 2d - 23 ) received from the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 correspondingly to the respective extensions . as for the message data received from the subscriber &# 39 ; s line connection control portion 320 , the portable terrestrial station id of the portable terrestrial station 107 which is the destination of transmission is recognized on the basis of the correspondence between extensions and portable terrestrial station ids established by the control portion 330 in advance . on the other hand , as for the message data proper to the respective portable terrestrial stations from the control portion 330 , the portable terrestrial station id of the portable terrestrial station 107 which is the destination of transmission is recognized on the basis of the portable terrestrial station id transmitted together therewith . an error correction code is , if necessary , added to these message data for every portable terrestrial station 107 which is the destination of transmission , and the recognized portable terrestrial station id 2b is also added thereto to thereby form the portable terrestrial station frame 2 for every portable terrestrial stations 107 . the portable terrestrial frames 2 for the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 and the reference frame 1 received from the control portion 330 are sent , in time - division - multiplex , to the transmitter - receiver 310 . the transmitter - receiver 310 modulates the received frame signal , and sends the modulated signal to the communication satellite . then , the control portion 330 forms the above - mentioned reference frame and the control data in accordance with the operation which is performed by an operator through the input portion 360 . with the above - mentioned configuration , the center station 102 can use the portable terrestrial stations 107 in the same manner as usual extension telephones , upon not only audio data but also information for controlling calls of extensions , through the connection between the pbx 103 and the portable terrestrial stations 107 . in the above embodiment , a pbx having the most general analog telephone line interface as an extension interface is assumed as the pbx 103 , and calling - sound data , busy - sound data , information of on - hook / off - hook or dial information is transmitted and received between the center station 102 and the portable terrestrial stations 107 as the information for controlling the calling so as to control the extensions and the portable terrestrial stations 107 on the basis thereof . however , the information transmitted and received for call control or the control based thereon is changed in accordance with the extension interface of the pbx 103 . for example , if the extension interface of the pbx 103 is a basic interface of isdn , call control information of the d - channel or synchronizing information of the layer 1 level may be used as the information transmitted and received for call control . in addition , with the above - mentioned configuration , the center station 102 and the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 can exchange control data with each other . here , it is not always necessary to assign the extensions to the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 in advance but the configuration may be made such that , at the start of the system , or the like , the control portion 250 of one of the actuated portable terrestrial stations 107 transmits a connection request as control data , and the control portion 330 of the center station 102 receiving this request informs the selection portions 340 and 350 of the correspondence between extensions and portable terrestrial station ids so that a corresponding extension is assigned to the portable terrestrial station transmitting the connection request . in this case , thereafter , a value showing the permission of transmission is given to the above - mentioned permission flag , and the permission flag is transmitted to the portable terrestrial station transmitting the connection request so as to allow the portable terrestrial station 107 to make a call . in addition , since the center station 102 can make remote control of the respective portable terrestrial stations 107 by use of the control data and the permission flag , a desired one of the portable terrestrial stations 107 can be selected as the portable terrestrial station 107 which performs communication . therefore , for example , if a plurality of center stations 102 are provided as shown in fig6 the respective center stations 102 can communicate with desired ones of a plurality of portable terrestrial stations 107 . in this case , however , it is necessary that the portable terrestrial stations 107 with which a specific one of the center stations 102 communicates is designated by the specific center station 102 through a specific communication line 120 . in this case , the control portions 330 of the respective center stations 102 inform their own selection portions 340 and 350 of the correspondence between their extensions and the portable terrestrial station ids , so that extensions are assigned to the portable terrestrial stations dynamically . in such a manner , even when the center station with which the portable terrestrial stations 107 communicate is not fixed , each of the portable terrestrial stations 107 displays the received center station id on the display 260 as mentioned above , so that a user can recognize the center station to which the user is communicating .
