Patent Images
1. An apparatus for providing enhanced features for advanced voice services in a wireless communications network, comprising:
- a wireless communications network for making calls to and from mobile units, wherein the calls are initiated by call setup and in-band signaling within the wireless communications network and voice frames for the calls are switched between the mobile units across bearer paths in the wireless communications network; and
a real-time exchange that interfaces to the wireless communications network to provide a Voice Short Message Service (SMS) message that comprises a short voice message, wherein a user sends the Voice SMS message to at least one contact, in a manner similar to sending a short text message, using their mobile unit.
