1. A wireless voice communication system comprising:
- a plurality of mobile communication units that wirelessly transmit voice messages;
a voice hub system operative to group mobile communication units into a plurality of communication groups, the voice hub system comprising an editor that allows a user of the voice hub system to define logical network groups and assign which individual mobile communication units of the plurality of communication units are to be members of a given logical network group, the editor further allowing a user to define unit task organizations and to select individual mobile communication units from more than one logical network group as members of a given unit task organization, wherein the logical network groups and unit task organizations form the plurality of communication groups, the voice hub system being operative to provide selectability of voice message communications with at least one selected communication group of the plurality of communication groups; and
a router that routes the voice messages between the voice hub system and the at least one selected communication group wherein the voice hub system automatically disseminates configuration information to the router, upon completion of the communication groupings, to allow automatic voice message communications between the voice hub system and the at least one selected communication group upon completion of a communication group selection.

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for routing voice communications to groups in a voice communication system using a voice hub system. The voice hub system allows a user to group communication devices into one or more logical networks and/or unit task organizations. The user can then select one or more of the communications groupings to transmit and receive voice communications. A user can change the communication grouping selections automatically changing the communication group that the voice hub system is transmitting and receiving voice messages.

14. A voice hub system for providing voice communication with communication groups of a two-way radio system, comprising:
-
a voice hub processing module operative to group two-way radio devices into a plurality of communication groups, the voice hub system comprising an editor that allows a user of the voice hub system to define logical network groups and assign which individual mobile communication units of the plurality of communication units are to be members of a given logical network group, the editor further allowing a user to define unit task organizations and to select individual mobile communication units from more than one logical network group as members of a given unit task organization, wherein the logical network groups and unit task organizations form the plurality of communication groups, the voice hub system being operative to provide selectability of at least one of the plurality of communication groups for voice communications; a hand set coupled to a voice transmitter that transmits and receives voice communications from the voice hub system and at least one selected communication group of the plurality of communication groups; and a router that contains a router database defining routing connections with the plurality of communication groups, the router having a routing algorithm that extracts routing information from the voice communications and utilizes the extracted routing information and router database to route the voice communications between the voice hub system and the two-way radio devices of the at least one selected communication group, wherein the router database is configured in response to configuration information provided to the router by the voice hub processing module based on the groupings of the plurality of communication groups. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)
