摘要： An incident commander computing device dynamically reconfigures subscriber unit usage of radio access networks by first identifying, based at least on a type of incident occurring within a particular geographic area, a first incident response group having a first higher priority for responding to the incident and a second incident response group having a second lower priority for responding to the incident, then identifying a first higher priority radio access network having a sufficient coverage level across the particular geographic area and a second lower priority radio access network having a sufficient coverage level across the particular geographic area, and finally assigning the first incident response group to the first higher priority radio access network and assigning the second incident response group to the second lower priority radio access network.

摘要： A radio communication system includes a plurality of sites that each belong to one of a plurality of zones. The plurality of zones are each linked to a zone controller and the plurality of sites are employed to facilitate communications among a plurality of communication units affiliated therewith. A method of establishing a communication between two of the plurality of communication units that are presently affiliated with sites not belonging to a common zone includes the step of determining a preferred zone for at least one of the plurality of communication units. After identifying a usable site that belongs to the preferred zone, the communication unit then affiliates with the usable site to facilitate the communications with the second communication unit.

摘要： A communication device performs a method for selecting a network for an application service based upon system performance. The method includes obtaining multiple sets of performance metrics. Each of the multiple sets of performance metrics comprises at least one performance metric for a same application service. The method further includes evaluating the multiple sets of performance metrics to select one of the corresponding networks to access the application service on the selected network.

摘要： A method, wireless controller, and information processing system that define communication channel allocation. Communication channel allocation commands associated with a first network are monitored (102). The first network (102) comprises a plurality of communication frequencies assigned by the communication channel allocation commands. A set of communication frequencies are determined that have been assigned to wireless devices (108) associated with the first network (102) in response to the monitoring. A specification of unused communication frequencies within the plurality of communication frequencies are transmitted to a second network (104) in response to the determining.

摘要： A method and apparatus are provided for reducing truncation of time sensitive information such as audio in a trunked radio system having a plurality of zone controllers. The method includes the steps of receiving a call request from a calling radio or wireline console by a controlling zone controller of the plurality of zone controllers and measuring a time necessary to set up a call connection between the controlling zone controller and a plurality of called radios or wireline consoles where the call connections of the plurality of called radios or wireline consoles are each set up through a different participating zone controller of the plurality of zone controllers. The method also includes the steps of determining a largest relative measured time among the measured times and buffering audio information from the calling radio for a time period proportional to the determined largest relative time.

摘要： A system and method for dynamically re-associating remote sites among multiple zone controller. The system includes multiple zones, each having one or more zone controllers associated with multiple remote sites via a network. Upon a failure, loss of service, or other preset event, a remote site obtains a list of foreign zone controllers with which the remote site is capable of being associated with, selects one of the list of foreign zone controllers; and associates with the selected foreign zone controller.
