Definitions

  • This invention relates generally to communication systems, and more particularly to interlinked trunked communication systems.
  • Trunked communication systems are known in the art.
  • such systems include a resource controller (which may be centrally located or distributed) that manages communications between communication units (such as fixed location, mobile, and portable two-way radios) on a plurality of communication resources (such as frequency pairs or TDM time slots) that are supported by a plurality of corresponding repeaters.
  • a resource controller which may be centrally located or distributed
  • communicate units such as fixed location, mobile, and portable two-way radios
  • communication resources such as frequency pairs or TDM time slots
  • a number of such systems are available, including the Smartnet and Privacy Plus systems from Motorola, the Clearchannel LTR system from E.F. Johnson, and the Sixteen Plus and Sweet Sixteen systems from General Electric. In general, such systems tend to operate independent of one another. Therefore, a communication unit located in a first system will generally not be able to communicate with a second communication unit located in a second communication system.
  • Some prior art systems interlink one or more communication systems through use of an appropriate dedicated landline. So configured, communication units in different communication systems may be able to communicate with one another. Such an approach, however, poses several disadvantages, including increased cost and relative inflexibility. In addition, even when so linked, such solutions do not readily accommodate group calls.
  • This need is substantially met through provision of the intersystem communication system disclosed herein.
  • This system functions in conjunction with at least two communication systems that each include a set of communication resources and resource controllers for controlling allocation of these resources.
  • one or more of these communication systems are also provided with one or more supplemental receivers that are at least substantially compatible with the communication resources that are ordinarily used in the opposing system. So configured, communication requests sourced from a first system can be received by the a second system having such a supplemental receiver tuned to the appropriate resources of the first system, and thereafter be properly processed.
  • each communication system is provided with a receiver that is compatible with the control communication resource, such as a dedicated control channel, of an opposing system. So configured, communications sourced from one system can be received by the other system and properly processed.
  • a receiver can be provided to accommodate each communication resource supported by the other communication system. This embodiment offers a high degree of flexibility in communication resource allocation.
  • control communication resource supports both primary control signalling used by member communication units of the communications system to facilitate allocation of the communication resources amongst the member communication units.
  • this control communication resource also supports secondary control signalling that is intended for and used by a second communication system to facilitate system to system communications.
  • the primary control signalling and the secondary control signalling can be transmitted at different data rates, wherein the secondary control signalling is transmitted at a higher data rate.
  • communication units that belong to a common fleet or group share, at least in part, a common group ID in each system. For example, a first ID is used while communicating within the home system. The home system recognizes this ID as representing a local group or fleet.
  • a second ID can also be used by the radios that comprise the group or fleet when in a second system. This second ID is preregistered in the second system as a roaming ID, along with information regarding the home system that corresponds to that particular ID. In a similar manner, additional IDs can be used with different systems for which the radios are preregistered as roamers.
  • the non-home system When such a non-home system determines that a preregistered roamer has entered its system, the non-home system will use its supplemental receiver to monitor the communication resources of the home system for that roamer. Communications from the home system that are intended for the roamer can then be intercepted and forwarded on to the roamer through use of the non-home system resources.

  • Fig. 2 comprises a timing diagram of the control communication resource in accordance with the first embodiment
  • Fig. 3 comprises a block diagram depiction of a second embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 4 comprises a block diagram depiction of a third embodiment of the invention. Best Mode For Carrying Out The Invention
  • a first embodiment can be seen as depicted generally by the numeral 100.
  • the system (100) operates in conjunction with other communication systems.
  • only two such communication systems (101 and 102) will be described.
  • the first communication system (101) includes a resource controller (103) that functions to control allocation of a first set of communication resources.
  • the communication resources are supported by a plurality of repeaters (104), and that the communication resources themselves comprise a first set of three frequency pairs A- C.
  • one of the repeaters (104) supports system control information related to resource allocation requests and grants.
  • Such system control information intended for member communication units (106) of that system (101 ) is referred to herein as primary signalling information.
  • the resource controller (103) controls the repeaters (104) and interchanges resource allocation request and grant information as primary control signalling through the repeaters (104) via an appropriate link (107) as well understood in the art.
  • a second communication system (102) similarly includes a resource controller (108), repeaters (109) (that support communication resources D-F), and an appropriate link (111 ) therebetween.
  • the communication resources A-C of the first system (101) are different from the communication resources D-F of the second system (102). Therefore, the two systems (101 and 102) are not able to communicate directly with one another through the repeaters provided.
  • each system (101 and 102) is also provided with a receiver (112 and 113) that is capable of compatibly receiving at least one communication resource of the other system.
  • the communication resource so received is the control communication resource.
  • Received signalling information is then coupled from the receiver (112 and 113) to the associated resource controller (103 and 108, respectively) via an appropriate link (114 and 115, respectively).
  • the resource controller (103 and 108) are capable of monitoring the control communication resource of the other system.
  • the outbound primary control signalling uses a slotted Aloha channel access protocol.
  • outbound primary control signalling words (PCS) (201) are sourced by the resource controller and transmitted by the appropriate control communication resource repeater. These PCS (201) data transmissions are interleaved with appropriate synchronization words (202).
  • a system ID (203) is occasionally transmitted, all as well understood in the art.
  • the next available data slot (204) following the system ID (203) supports an outbound secondary control signal (SCS) intended for the adjacent communication system.
  • SCS outbound secondary control signal
  • the secondary control signalling word (204) can utilize a higher bit rate, thereby increasing the data rate by perhaps a factor of 10.
  • the outbound secondary control signal word could hold from 760 to 840 bits of data presuming a transmission rate of about 36 K BPS.
  • capacity of the control communication resource will not be substantially impaired.
  • the high bit rate will provide satisfactory performance because only fixed site to fixed site communications need be supported.
  • a resource controller can source an appropriate secondary control signal intended for reception and processing by another communication system.
  • Such information could be, for example, to establish intersystem communications between communication units (106) as described below in more detail.
  • the first communication system (301 ) again includes a resource controller (303) that functions to control allocation of a first set of communication resources.
  • the resource controller (303) controls the repeaters (304) and interchanges resource allocation request and grant information through the repeaters (304), via an appropriate link (306).
  • the second communication system (302) similarly includes a resource controller (307), repeaters (308) (which support communication resources D-F) and an appropriate link (309) therebetween.
  • the communication resources A-C of the first system (301 ) are different from the communication resources D-F of the second system (302). Therefore, the two systems (301 and 302) are not able to communicate directly with one another through the repeaters provided.
  • the first communication system (301 ) also includes a plurality of receivers (311 ) that are capable of compatibly receiving the communication resources D-F of the second communication system (302).

  • An appropriate communication link (312) is provided between the receivers (311 ) and the resource controller (303) to allow operation of the receivers (311 ) to be controlled, at least in part, by the resource controller (303), and also to allow the resource controller (303) to receive signalling information as received by the receivers (311) and as sourced from the resource controller (307) of the second system (302).
  • an appropriate link (313) is provided between the receivers (311 ) and the repeaters (304) of the first system (301 ).
  • This link (313) is appropriately gated (314) to allow the resource controller (303) to control provision of signals received by the receivers (311 ) to the repeaters (304).
  • the resource controller (303) can cause a particular repeater (304) to retransmit a communication, such as a voice message, that has been received by one of the receivers (311 ).

If, however, the resource controller (303) determines that the communication target is not local (or, if dealing with a talk group, is not completely local in all instances), then the resource controller -can transmit, on the control resource, an outbound signalling word constituting a notification that a communication with the second communication unit is desired.
  • This outbound communication (324) as sourced by the resource controller (303) and as transmitted by the appropriate control resource repeater (304) will be received by whichever of the receivers (316) in the second communication system (302) is monitoring that particular communication resource of the first system (301 ). That particular receiver (316) will then provide the signalling information via the appropriate link (317) to the resource controller (307) for the second communication system (302). If the second resource controller (307) recognizes the identified communication target as local, the resource controller (307) will assign one of its communication resources to support the communication, and will provide information identifying the allocated resource in an outbound transmission (326) on its control resource.

Abstract

Dans un mode de réalisation, les systèmes de transmission indépendants (101 et 102) comportent des récepteurs additionnels (112 et 113) qui leur permettent de contrôler mutuellement leurs canaux de signalisation de commande à destination de l'extérieur. La signalisation de commande secondaire (204) peut être imbriquée avec la signalisation de commande primaire (201) sur cette ressource de transmission, lesquelles informations de signalisation de commande secondaire sont destinées à être reçues et utilisées par le système de contrôle. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, des systèmes de transmission (301 et 302) possédant des ressources de transmission spécialisées sont pourvus de récepteurs (311 et 316) qui contrôlent les ressources de transmission des autres systèmes de transmission. Les communications entre des unités de transmission (321 et 323) dans divers systèmes sont permutées par l'interaction appropriée des répéteurs et des récepteurs spécialisés ainsi prévus. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, les systèmes de transmission (401 et 402) possédant des ressources de transmission spécialisées sont dotées de récepteurs (416) qui contrôlent les ressources de transmission d'autres systèmes de transmission, et des ''vagabonds'' (423) sont repérés (431) dans des systèmes extérieurs. Grâce à cette infrastructure, on peut remonter à la source d'un appel de groupe dans un système et retransmettre cet appel à des ''vagabonds'' situés dans d'autres systèmes.
