Message Bus Slot Update/Idle Control In Rf Trunking Multisite Switch

View page
US Patent:
52532534, Oct 12, 1993
Filed:
Feb 22, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/658640
Inventors:
Charles P. Brame - Forest VA
Timothy F. Cree - Forest VA
Philip C. Gulliford - Forest VA
Wim A. Imron - Forest VA
Satish Kappagantula - Lynchburg VA
James L. Teel - Goode VA
Assignee:
Ericsson GE Mobile Communications Inc. - Lynchburg VA
International Classification:
H04J 316
US Classification:
370 8511
Abstract:
A multisite network switch for a series of RF digital trunked radio transceivers and dispatcher consoles. The switch establishes audio communications between different sites and various dispatcher consoles. The multisite switch has a distributed architecture in which each node of the switch is supported by a microprocessor controlled card. This card has a communications controller that routes messages between the internal switch bus, an outside port and an interface processor that controls the audio slots in the switch. The communications controller receives control messages from the switch bus, but discards redundant slot status messages by checking a slot status bit map stored in a memory unit on the card.

Audio Routing Within Trunked Radio Frequency Multisite Switch

View page
US Patent:
56993544, Dec 16, 1997
Filed:
Nov 4, 1994
Appl. No.:
8/336204
Inventors:
Philip C. Gulliford - Forest VA
Wim A. Imron - Forest VA
James L. Teel - Goode VA
Assignee:
Ericsson GE Mobile Communications, Inc. - Lynchburg VA
International Classification:
H04B 336
US Classification:
370315
Abstract:
A distributed trunked radio frequency (RF) switching network (multisite switch) distributes audio routing control information and digitized audio signals to communications interface modules (nodes) throughout the multisite switch, thus avoiding a centralized mixing matrix, increasing fault tolerance and providing low routing request latency time. Each audio source, (for example, RF repeater transmitter, dispatch console microphone) is preassigned an audio channel on a time division multiplexed (TDM) digitized "audio network" or bus within the switch. The audio sources continually provide digitized audio signals to all other nodes within the switch over the assigned TDM bus channels. Audio routing is performed at the audio destinations (for example, interface modules/nodes associated with RF repeater receivers, dispatch console speakers) by selectively "listening" to active TDM network channels. In the preferred embodiment, audio is routed undirectionally on an "as needed" basis (for example, in response to radio transceiver "keys" and "unkeys"), and audio routing pathways may change dynamically during an on-going call.

Conventional Base Station Interface Architecture For Rf Trunking Multisite Switch

View page
US Patent:
52415376, Aug 31, 1993
Filed:
Jun 4, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/709987
Inventors:
Philip C. Gulliford - Forest VA
Charles P. Brame - Forest VA
Wim A. Imron - Forest VA
Assignee:
Ericsson GE Mobile Communications, Inc. - Lynchburg VA
International Classification:
H04Q 702
H04Q 704
H04B 726
US Classification:
370 67
Abstract:
An interface for a conventional base station into a digitally trunked network of RF communications systems acts a pseudo-down link from a multisite switch to a trunked site controller. The interface monitors the conventional channels from the base station and sends a channel assignment message to the multisite switch when it detects a voice signal. The channel assignment message notifies the trunked RF systems that a new call is active so that each system can assign a trunked working channel to the conventional call. Similarly, the multisite switch sends a channel request when a trunked call is to be broadcast over a conventional channel. The interface keys the channel and couples the channel to the trunked call.

Appl. No.:
7/658636
Inventors:
Philip Gulliford - Forest VA

James L. Teel - Goode VA
Assignee:
Erricsson GE Mobile Communications Inc. - Research Triangle Park NC
International Classification:
H04J 302
US Classification:
370 851
Abstract:
A distributed trunked radio frequency (RF) switching network (switch) distributes audio routing control and processing throughout the switch, thus avoiding a centralized mixing matrix, increasing fault tolerance and providing low routing request latency time. Each audio source (e. g. , RF repeater transmitter, dispatch console microphone) is preassigned an audio channel on a time division multiplexed (TDM) digitized audio network or bus. The audio sources continually broadcast digitized audio signals to all other nodes over the TDM network. Audio routing is performed at the audio destinations (e. g. , nodes associated with RF repeater receivers, dispatch console speakers) by selectively "listening" to active TDM network channels.

US Patent:
52764427, Jan 4, 1994
Filed:
Feb 22, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/658843
Inventors:
Timothy F. Cree - Forest VA
Charles P. Brame - Forest VA
Wim A. Imron - Forest VA
Assignee:
Ericsson GE Mobile Communications Inc. - Lynchburg VA
International Classification:
H04Q 300
H04J 324
US Classification:
34082552
Abstract:
A multisite network switch for a series of RF digital trunked radio transceivers and dispatcher consoles. The switch establishes audio communications between different sites and various dispatcher consoles. The multisite switch has a distributed architecture in which each node of the switch is supported by a microprocessor controlled card. These nodes perform all of the logical functions of the switch. When the switch is booted-up or reset, each node executes a dynamic address generation algorithm to select a unique address and resolve any address conflicts with other nodes.

Wim A. Imron - Forest VA
Assignee:
Ericsson GE Mobile Communications Inc. - Lynchburg VA
International Classification:
H04J 312
US Classification:
370 857
Abstract:
A multisite network switch for a series of RF digital trunked radio transceivers and dispatcher consoles. Each transceiver covers a certain site area. The switch establishes audio communications between different sites and various dispatcher consoles. The multisite switch has a distributed architecture in which each node of the switch is supported by a microprocessor controlled card. The nodes are connected by audio buses and a dedicated message bus. The messages on the message bus allow the nodes to communicate control information regarding the status of slots on the audio bus, the members in groups, the location of radio units, call types and a host of other information needed to operate the switch.

Multisite Trunked Rf Communication System With Reliable Control Messaging Network

View page
US Patent:
53655125, Nov 15, 1994
Filed:
Jul 2, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/084944
Inventors:
Edward A. Combs - Lynchburg VA
Dennis M. Maddox - Rustburg VA
Wim A. Imron - Forest VA
Assignee:
Ericsson GE Mobile Communications Inc. - Lynchburg VA
International Classification:
H04J 314
G06F 1120
US Classification:
370 16
Abstract:
A distributed switching network (switch) routes audio and control signals throughout the switch from various audio sources to one or more audio destinations. Audio sources such as mobile/portable radio units (via RF repeater transmitters), dispatch consoles, and landline telephone subscribers (via the central telephone switching network) are preassigned and routed onto an audio channel (i. e. a time slot) on a time division multiplexed (TDM) audio bus through a corresponding node. Each microprocessor controlled node is connected to plural control message buses provided for transferring control messages between nodes. A first supervisory node is physically connected at one end of the message buses and an end node is connected at the other end. If the end node fails to respond to a polling message from the supervisory node within a predetermined time period, the supervisory node assumes that the current messaging bus is faulty and initiates a bus switching operation to an alternate messaging bus. The supervisory and end nodes thereafter coordinate switching of all nodes in the switch to the alternate control messaging bus to insure reliable trunked RF communications over the multisite network.
