A mobile station is coupled to a docking station that has a landline connection to a packet-switched network. In response, the mobile station's mobile directory number (MDN) is registered, via the packet-switched network, as being accessible via the docking station. As a result, when a call is placed to the MDN, the call is routed to the docking station via the packet-switched network. Communication devices coupled to the docking station may then be used to answer the call and/or participate in the call.

A method for providing a dynamic bridge service is provided. The method comprises provisioning a dynamic bridge service associated with at least a first private number and a second private number. The method also comprises receiving an origination attempt from an electronic device associated with a third private number to establish a call to an electronic device associated with the first private number, requesting the bridge to be opened in response to receiving the origination attempt, and connecting the electronic device associated with the third private number to the bridge. The method also comprises connecting the electronic device associated with the first private number to the bridge, receiving a request to join the bridge from an electronic device associated with the second private number, and connecting the electronic device associated with the second private number to the bridge in response to receiving the request to join the bridge from the electronic device associated with the second private number.

A wireless communication device comprises a user interface, a memory, a wireless communication interface, and a processing system. The wireless communication interface is configured to wirelessly receive a message. The processing system is configured to direct the memory to store the message. The processing system is configured to drive the user interface to display the message, display a message redaction indicator, and responsively receive a message redaction instruction. The processing system is configured to redact a portion of the message responsive to the message redaction instruction and direct the memory to store the redacted portion of the message. The processing system is configured to drive the user interface to display the message without the redacted portion, display a message recovery indicator, and responsively receive a message recovery instruction. The processing system is configured to recover the message responsive to the message recovery instruction and drive the user interface to display the message with the previously redacted portion.

A multi-mode mobile station includes a first interface for wireless communication with a wireless local area network (WLAN) and a second interface for wireless communication with a wireless wide area network (WWAN). A call control system routes all calls to and from the multi-mode mobile station through a media gateway that serves as an anchor point for handoffs between the WLAN and WWAN. For example, while involved in a call that has a WLAN call leg from the media gateway, the multi-mode mobile transmits a handoff request. The call control system then establishes a WWAN call leg from the media gateway, and the multi-mode mobile station stores in a buffer any media received via the WWAN call leg. The call control system subsequently transmits a handoff instruction to the multi-mode mobile station. In response, the multi-mode mobile station plays out the stored media and drops the WLAN call leg.

A wireless device may receive a first identifier from an access point for first wireless network that uses a first air interface protocol and a second identifier from an access point for a second wireless network that uses a second air interface protocol. The first and second identifiers may both be transmitted, for example, via the first air interface protocol. After receiving the identifiers, the wireless device may perform one or more predetermined actions. For example, the wireless device may, based on the identifiers, determine that it should communicate with the second wireless network and responsively check an availability of the second wireless network.

A telephony relay enables a portable communication device that is communicatively coupled to a packet-switched network to originate calls over a circuit-switched telephone network. The telephony relay has a first interface communicatively coupled to the packet-switched network, e.g., via a modem, and a second interface communicatively coupled to the circuit-switched telephone network, e.g., via an analog telephone line. To originate a call to a called number, the portable communication device transmits the called number to the telephony relay, via the packet-switched network. The telephony relay then uses an analog signaling format, e.g., DTMF tones, to transmit the called number to the circuit-switched telephone network. When the call is answered, the telephony relay conveys media between the portable communication device and the circuit-switched telephone network, converting between the analog format used by the circuit-switched network and the packet format used by the packet-switched network.
摘要:
A mobile station is identified by a plurality of directory numbers. One or more of the directory numbers are associated with distinct identifier codes that identify a directory number or “personality” in transmissions over the air interface, e.g., for call origination from the mobile station and/or call termination to the mobile station. When the mobile station receives an identifier code when it receives a call, the mobile station provides a distinct user-discernible indication that is specific for that identifier code. From this distinct user-discernible indication, the use may determine which directory number is being called. When originating a call, the mobile station may transmit an identifier code to indicate which directory number to use as the calling party number.
摘要:
A mobile station may determine its present location. The mobile station may then access a database, which correlates the mobile station's present location with a coverage area of a radio network. If the database indicates that the mobile station is within the coverage area of the radio network, the mobile station may then attempt to access the radio network and determine the radio network's availability.
摘要:
A mobile station communicating with a first radio network may detect that it has changed location and thereafter stopped moving. In response to determining that it has changed location and thereafter stopped moving, the mobile station may perform one or more predetermined actions. For example, the mobile station may be communicating with a first radio network, such as a WWAN. In response to this determination, the mobile station may check the availability of a second radio network, such as a WLAN. If the second radio network is available, the mobile station may begin accessing the second radio network for voice, data or other services.
摘要:
A processor-implemented method of accessing content is provided comprising a server composing a first list of broadcast content, wherein each entry in the first list comprises a link to access a broadcast content associated with the entry. The method also comprises the server composing a second list of stored content, wherein each entry in the second list comprises a link to access a stored content associated with the entry, and the server dynamically aggregating entries from the first list and the second list to compose a content guide. The method further comprises presenting at least a portion of the content guide on a display, wherein at least one entry from the first list and at least one entry from the second list are present at the same time on the display, and presenting content on the display based on selecting an entry from the guide.
