First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for communicating information in a wireless network between at least one user and a communication system, comprising:
- a) a position reporting microphone, comprising;
i) a speaker-microphone set, comprising;
(A) a speaker element operatively coupled to a microphone element;
(B) a PTT circuit member, electrically connected to the microphone element, wherein the PTT circuit member is adapted to electrically activate the microphone element;
ii) a position acquisition controller, operatively connected to the speaker-microphone set, comprising;
(A) a position information receptor, adapted to receive positioning data from at least one external transponder system;
(B) a signal converter, operatively coupled to the position information receptor, wherein the signal converter converts the positioning data received by the position information receptor into a quantity of positioning digital data;
iii) a data manager element electrically coupled to the position acquisition controller, wherein the data manager is adapted to parse the quantity of positioning digital data into a digital format suitable for use by a baseband audio signal processor, and;
iv) a baseband audio signal processor element, electrically coupled to the data manager element, adapted to receive the suitably formatted quantity of positioning digital data, wherein the baseband audio signal processor element is adapted to generate a composite signal.
