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).
Claims20
A system comprising:
- a first radio;
- a second radio;
- and
- a third radio, wherein:
- the first radio, the second radio, and the third radio are configured to be part of a wireless-conferencing group using a multiple access protocol;
- the first radio is a master radio of the wireless-conferencing group;
- the second radio and the third radio are slave radios of the wireless-conferencing group;
- and
- the third radio is configured to:
- receive first voice data from the first radio;
- receive second voice data from the second radio;
- and
- transmit a signal to a speaker of the third radio containing audio from the first voice data but not audio from the second voice data.

A method comprising:
- transmitting data from a third radio to a first radio and to a second radio, wherein:
- the first radio, the second radio, and the third radio are part of a wireless conferencing group using a multiple access protocol;
- the first radio is a master radio of the wireless conferencing group;
- the second radio and the third radio are slave radios of the wireless conferencing group;
- receiving, using the third radio, first voice data from the first radio;
- receiving, using the third radio, second voice data from the second radio;
- and
- transmitting a signal to a speaker of the third radio containing audio from the first voice data but not audio from the second voice data.
5 more elements
A device comprising:
- a transmitter;
- a receiver;
- a speaker;
- and
- one or more processors configured to:
- transmit, using the transmitter, data from a third radio to a first radio and to a second radio, wherein:
- the transmitter, the receiver, and the speaker are part of the third radio;
- the first radio, the second radio, and the third radio are part of a wireless conferencing group using a multiple access protocol;
- the first radio is a master radio of the wireless conferencing group;
- the second radio and the third radio are slave radios of the wireless conferencing group;
- receive, using the receiver, first voice data from the first radio;
- receive, using the receiver, second voice data from the second radio;
- and
- transmit a signal to the speaker containing audio from the first voice data but not audio from the second voice data.
