  • Patent number: 11770868
    Abstract: Wireless-conferencing radios communicate directly with each other without a base station using a multiple access protocol, such as Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA). A first radio is configured to communicate with a second radio in a first wireless-conferencing group using a first group profile. The first radio is configured to receive a second group profile for communicating with a third radio in a second wireless-conferencing group, so that the first radio can switch between the first wireless-conferencing group and the second wireless-conferencing group.

  • Patent number: 10575142
    Abstract: A first radio has duplex communication with a second radio, without using a base station by using a multiple-access protocol system. The first radio is configured to perform as a slave radio and then switch to be a master radio based on a master flag. A master radio provides timing synchronization and/or assigns transmission slots for radios in the multiple-access protocol system.

  • Patent number: 10136426
    Abstract: A wireless-conferencing system enables two or more radios to communicate with each other in full-duplex communication, such as by using time division multiple access (TDMA). To use the wireless-conferencing system in a narrowband radio service system, such as GMRS having channel spacing of 25 kHz, one or more techniques are used to implement the wireless-conferencing system.

  • Patent number: 9485631
    Abstract: A first radio has duplex communication with a second radio and a third radio, without using a base station by using a multiple-access protocol system. The first radio is configured to switch back and forth between being a master radio and a slave radio in the multiple-access protocol system. In some embodiments, time-division multiplexing is used as the multiple-access protocol system for the first radio, the second radio, and the third radio to communicate. In some embodiments, the master radio provides timing synchronization and/or assigns transmission slots for radios in the multiple-access protocol system.
