SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SHARING MEDIA IN A GROUP COMMUNICATION AMONG WIRELESS COMMUNICATION DEVICES
First Claim
1. A communication computer device for sharing media in a group communication among a plurality of wireless communications devices on a wireless communication network, the communication computer device configured to:
- communicate with one or more of the plurality of wireless communications devices through the wireless communication network;
store information identifying the plurality of wireless communication devices as members of the group communication;
receive group-directed media from a first wireless communication device identified as a first one of the members of the group communication for delivery to a second wireless communication device identified as a second one of the members of the group communication; and
send the group-directed media to the second wireless communication device.

Abstract
A system, method, and wireless communication device for sharing media in a group communication among a plurality of wireless communications devices, such as among a Push-to-Talk (PTT) group. A wireless communication device that is a member of the communication group can send group-directed media, such as graphics, multimedia and applications, to other members of the communication group, either during a ongoing PTT communication, or independently there from. In one embodiment, a communication computer device stores information on communication groups on the wireless communication network that includes the member wireless communication devices of one or more communication groups, and receives group-directed media from a sending wireless communication device sends the group-directed media either directly to the other member wireless communication devices of the communication group or stores the group-directed media such that the other member devices can access and download the group-directed media.
