  • System and method of host routing when host computer is within a home network and/or a complementary network
    Patent number: 7230944
    Abstract: A system and method of wireless communication enabling a device to transmit data via a second routing switch to a host computer associated with at least first and second routing switches, subsequent to determining that the host computer cannot receive the data from the first routing switch.

  • System and method of transmitting data messages between subscriber units communicating with/between complementary/disparate networks
    Patent number: 6947737
    Abstract: A system and method for enabling a first device (502, 504, 506) that may optionally roam between at least first and second wireless networks (500, 1102) to communicate with a second device (502, 504, 506) that may optionally roam between the at least first and second wireless networks (500, 1102). The devices (502, 504, 506) are preferably registered to each network in which the device may roam. A routing switch (1112) first transmits a data message to the receiving device at the last known location of the receiving device. If a negative acknowledgement is received, the message is routed to all other networks to which the receiving device is registered, either serially or in parallel, depending upon the configuration of the transmitting network. Routing devices (1112) and/or gateways (1110) are preferably provided for each network (500, 1102) to provide any required protocol and/or message format conversions.
