摘要： A packet-based, hierarchical communication system, arranged in a spanning tree configuration, is described in which wired and wireless communication networks exhibiting substantially different characteristics are employed in an overall scheme to link portable or mobile computing devices. The network accommodates real time voice transmission both through dedicated, scheduled bandwidth and through a packet-based routing within the confines and constraints of a data network. Conversion and call processing circuitry is also disclosed which enables access devices and personal computers to adapt voice information between analog voice stream and digital voice packet formats as proves necessary. Routing pathways include wireless spanning tree networks, wide area networks, telephone switching networks, internet, etc., in a manner virtually transparent to the user. A voice session and associate call setup simulates that of conventional telephone switching network, providing well-understood functionality common to any mobile, remote or stationary terminal, phone, computer, etc.

摘要： In an exemplary embodiment a transmission link switch is provided at each node. In a transmission mode, the switch provides a transmission path which transmits incoming messages directly to the node output without any processing delay. In the cutoff mode of the switch, the associated data processor still receives messages from the node input, but the direct path from the node input to node output is interrupted. During the sending of messages and responses thereto, the link switches at the sending and responding nodes are operated so as to prevent the messages from making multiple traverses of the loop communications path while also avoiding the occurrence at other nodes of a communication gap which would permit such nodes to interfere with the exchange of messages. The arrangement is such that each node can be implemented with low cost integrated circuit modules.
