  • System and method for embedding text in multicast transmissions
    Patent number: 8514762
    Abstract: A system and method embeds text in a multicast transmission. An exemplary method comprises receiving non-voice data. The non-voice data is embedded within digitized voice data. The digitized voice data with the embedded non-voice data is wirelessly transmitted, by a computing device, as a multicast transmission to a plurality of mobile devices.

  • Intelligent scanning system and method for walkie-talkie devices
    Patent number: 8396473
    Abstract: A method and system for scanning channels in a network for incoming audio transmissions. A device enters an intelligent scanning mode, which initiates an automatic scanning of predefined channels for incoming audio transmissions. Upon detection, the device tunes to the channel of the incoming audio transmission while continually searching channels of a higher priority for incoming audio transmissions of a higher priority. A device enters a single channel mode to send an outgoing transmission, which automatically reverts the device to the channel of the last incoming audio transmission.
