System and Methods for Critical Communication
First Claim
1. A method for transmitting data in a communication system, the method comprising an access point:
- establishing a mission critical (MC) session with a UE and an intended recipient device in response to receiving a MC request that indicates an emergency condition;
receiving, from the UE, MC data associated with the MC session;
caching at least a portion of the received MC data; and
,transmitting at least some of the received MC data to the intended recipient device.

Abstract
A system and method is provided for mission critical communications. In an aspect, a computer-implemented method may be implemented for a node device on a network to facilitate communication between a sending device and an intended recipient device. The node device may receive from the sending device a mission critical (MC) communication directed to the intended recipient device. The node device may process the received MC communication to produce processed MC data and cache some or all of the processed MC data. The node device may transmit at least a portion of the received MC communication, the processed MC data, and/or the cached MC data to the intended recipient device.

11. A method for transmitting data to an intended recipient device in a communication system, the method comprising a UE:
-
capturing MC data from one or more MC sensors; establishing a MC session with an access point available on the communication system and the intended recipient device; and
,transmitting the MC data to the access point for the access point to forward the MC data to the intended recipient device before receiving an acknowledgment of the MC session from the intended recipient device. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13)

14. A system for communicating mission critical (MC) communications over a network, the system comprising:
-
a UE and an intended recipient device each connected to the network and operative to enter a MC mode to establish a MC session over the network; at least one of the UE or the intended recipient device operative to receive a MC session request; and
,the at least one of the UE or the intended recipient device operative to enter the MC mode in response to receiving the MC session request, and to establish the MC session over the network when the MC mode is entered. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)

22. An apparatus comprising:
-
a UE operable to connect to a wireless network and to enable a MC session on the UE and to establish a MC session with an intended recipient device through an access point available on the network; wherein the UE is further operable when the MC session is enabled to capture MC data from one or more MC sensors, cache the captured MC data on the UE, and to transmit, prior to receiving acknowledgment of the MC session from the intended recipient device, at least a portion of the captured MC data to the access point to forward to the intended recipient device.
