Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for creating a conference connection. An IP network hosted application server receives an invite message that includes contact information for conference participants. The application server creates a customized invitation message using the contact information and sends it to a device associated with conference participants. The application server receives response messages accepting the invitation from participants' devices that include a means of contact for conference participants. The application server creates a conference data record including the means of contact associated with the conference participants and a date/time for the conference. The application server forwards the conference data record to a conference server operable to initiate a conference to the conference participants at the date/time specified using the means of contact included in the response messages. The connections are joined into a conference with other conference participants.

Abstract: A wireless transmission module comprises: a first transceiver used to broadcast and to receive signals in a first frequency band; a second transceiver used to broadcast and to receive signals in a second frequency band; a switching circuit used to provide a single path of transmission and to control the its switches between the first transceiver and the second transceiver; and a processing unit used to control the switching circuit to switch the path of transmission from the first transceiver to the second transceiver when using the first frequency band of signal to communicate with a wireless device is not possible.
