Abstract

The invention in an illustrative embodiment provides binding and bridging between a mobile terminal and other more complex terminals in a communication system.
The binding is based on a determination of the proximity of the mobile to the other terminal, such that the mobile registers to different complex system terminals as it moves between different cells of the system. In accordance with the invention, a proximity-based temporary association is established, in a memory of a system switch, between the mobile and at least one other system terminal. While the mobile is "registered" in this manner to the other terminal, the mobile user can request permission to utilize the functions of the other terminal in order to, for example, receive incoming calls or place outgoing calls.
Other embodiments of the invention provide proximity-based registration which utilizes a beacon device carried by the user, such that the user automatically registers to different system terminals as he or she moves about within the system.
