Abstract:
The aim of the invention is to achieve an optimal network performance and network illumination in a wireless, autonomous communications network (KNW) with a dynamic network topology by auto-configuration. To achieve this, functional enhancements of the communications network (KNW), [implementation of an algorithm/a method] are used, enabling the communications network (KNW) to automatically determine the current network configuration and the accessibility of the transceivers (SEG) that are associated with the communications network (KNW) by means of measurements and to determine the optimal position of a master station or base station (BS, SEG1) at any one time from the data (HWI, HWI1...4) obtained from said measurements.
Abstract:
In order to allow a communication directory provider, offering a web-based search in a communication directory (KV), regardless of whether or not the provider at the same time is also the communication service provider for a communication service user, based on a search result from the web-based search in the directory (KV) to automatically provide the searching individual with data that is required for establishing a communication connection (KVB) to another subscriber in a line and/or packet-switched communication network (LVKN, PVKN), a home network (HNW) is connected via a communication device (KG, PC), on which a web client (WCL) is available, and at least one communication terminal (KEE, SLT), which has at least one telephone functionality, to a communication directory server (KVS) in the packet-switched communication network (PVKN) and each communication terminal (KEE, SLT) is registered with the server, wherein each communication terminal transmits a port number (PNR) and an IP address (IPA) to the server. After the user of the home network (KNW) via the communication device (KG, PC) has triggered a search in the communication directory (KV) of the server and a search result (MSER) has been marked from the at least one search result provided by the server (SER), the communication terminal (KEE, SLT) receives network address information (NAI) sent by the server and present in the marked search result (MSER) and, directly after receipt or with delay following receipt and intermediate storage of the network address information (NAI), the communication connection (KVB) to a network subscriber corresponding to the network address information is established.
