Abstract
A facility for performing employing multiple frequencies in a secure distributed hierarchical convergence network is described. The facility receives a signal in a first frequency, converts the received signal to an internal representation, applies a business rule to the converted signal, and, when the business rule indicates that the signal should be transmitted in a second frequency, causes the internal representation of the signal to be translated to a second frequency and transmitted in the second frequency.
Claims20
A method of employing multiple frequencies to provide a push-to-talk service, comprising:
- receiving a signal in a first frequency;
- down-converting the received signal to a digital signal;
- applying a business rule to the down-converted digital signal;
- and
- when the business rule indicates that the signal should be transmitted in a second frequency,
- causing the down-converted digital signal to be translated to a second frequency and transmitted in the second frequency.
A system of employing multiple frequencies to provide a push-to-talk service, comprising:
- a first communications network;
- and
- a first peering point communicably coupled to the first communications network that down-converts a signal received in a first frequency from the first network to a digital signal, transforms a payload of the digital signal, identifies a second network to which the signal should be transferred and provides the digital signal to a second peering point that is communicably coupled to the second network.
A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions for performing a method of employing multiple frequencies, the method comprising:
- receiving a signal in a first frequency;
- converting the received signal to an internal representation;
- applying a business rule to the converted signal;
- and
- when the business rule indicates that the signal should be transmitted in a second frequency,
- causing the internal representation of the signal to be translated to a second frequency and transmitted in the second frequency.
