Abstract

A radio networking system includes at least a first communication port operable to facilitate communication between the radio networking system and a first communication platform. The system further includes at least a second communication port operable to facilitate communication between the radio networking system and a second communication platform. Additionally, a call control software module is operable to automatically and intelligently switch an incoming call from the first communication platform to the second communication platform which is controlled by a processor operable to execute the call control software module according to the information contained in a system configuration database. The call control software module further manages the configuration of call connections and conferencing services and supports real time user control of desired communication services.

Claims

1. A communications system comprising:

a first communication system having at least one radio base station operable to communicate with at least one radio compatible with the first communication system;

a second communication system operable to provide communications between at least two communication devices compatible with the second communication system; and

a radio networking system operable to automatically facilitate communications between at least one radio of the first communication system and a communication device of the second communication system.
