Abstract

Abstract A two-way digital radio telephone system includes means for transmitting by RF carrier 16 bit binary words including a start bit, a six bit identification code and eight bits of information comprising either an audio sample or a function code, as indicated by an audio/function bit. The carrier is detected and each word serially loaded into a receive shift register which is parallelly unloaded with the identification code being supplied to a comparator and the information data being supplied to a D/A converter. If the comparator yields an identity with the predetermined 6 bit identification code, a D/A converter output is supplied to an amplifier which feeds a conventional telephone coil. The signal is retransmitted on another carrier by a parallelly loaded and serially unloaded transmit shift register which generates a similar binary word including an identification code, digitized audio or function data and the appropriate audio/function bit.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 89 words
A method of wireless communication between a base station and a remote station in a radio telephone system comprising the steps of: assigning fixed digital identification addresses to said base station and to said remote station; converting audio data information and function data information to be transmitted between said stations into digital data; and transmitting said digital data in packets, each packet including an identification address, an audio/function signal for identifying said audio data and said function data and either said audio data information or said function data information.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 89 words
A method of wireless communication between a base station and a remote station in a radio telephone system comprising the steps of: assigning fixed digital identification addresses to said base station and to said remote station; converting audio data information and function data information to be transmitted between said stations into digital data; and transmitting said digital data in packets, each packet including an identification address, an audio/function signal for identifying said audio data and said function data and either said audio data information or said function data information.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 33 words
The method of claim 1 wherein each packet comprises a binary word including a first group of bits defining address data, an audio/function bit and a second group of bits defining information data.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 98 words
A radio telephone communication system of enhanced privacy comprising: a base station transmitting signals on a first frequency and receiving signals on a second frequency; a remote station transmitting signals on said second frequency and receiving signals on said first frequency; means for digitizing function data information and audio data information at each station; means for generating an identification address and an audio/function data bit at each station; and means for encoding signals transmitted between said station into binary words, each word including an identification address, an audio/function bit and either audio data or function data digitized information.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 98 words
A radio telephone communication system of enhanced privacy comprising: a base station transmitting signals on a first frequency and receiving signals on a second frequency; a remote station transmitting signals on said second frequency and receiving signals on said first frequency; means for digitizing function data information and audio data information at each station; means for generating an identification address and an audio/function data bit at each station; and means for encoding signals transmitted between said station into binary words, each word including an identification address, an audio/function bit and either audio data or function data digitized information.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 38 words
The radio telephone system of claim 3 wherein each binary word includes a first group of bits denoting an identification address, said audio/function bit and a second group of bits denoting said function data or said audio data.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 83 words
In a two-way radio telephone communication system of the type including a base station and a remote station and means for transmitting information therebetween by two different fixed frequency RF signals, the improvement comprising: digitizing both audio and function information to be transmitted and transmitting data packets, each packet containing a binary address, an audio/function bit for determining whether audio or function information is being transmitted and binary information data corresponding to either function information or audio information whereby enhanced privacy is obtained.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 83 words
In a two-way radio telephone communication system of the type including a base station and a remote station and means for transmitting information therebetween by two different fixed frequency RF signals, the improvement comprising: digitizing both audio and function information to be transmitted and transmitting data packets, each packet containing a binary address, an audio/function bit for determining whether audio or function information is being transmitted and binary information data corresponding to either function information or audio information whereby enhanced privacy is obtained.
