Compander, and associated methodology, for a radio communication station operable pursuant to a coded squelch scheme
First Claim
1. A computer program product for a two-way radio communication station that operates pursuant to a coded squelch scheme in a first coded-squelch mode and in a second coded-squelch mode to initiate communication of communication data, said computer program product comprising:
- a computer useable storage medium;
computer readable code embodied in the storage medium for compressing communication data originated at the two-way radio by any of a first compacting type and a second compacting type the communication data compressed by the first compacting type when the communication station is operated in the first coded-squelch mode and the communication data compressed by the second compacting type when the communication station is operable in the second coded-squelch mode;
computer readable code embodied in the storage medium for expanding communication data terminated at the two-way radio by any of a first expanding operation type and a second expanding operation type the communication data expanded by the first expanding operation type when the communication station is operated in the first coded-squelch mode and the communication data expanded by the second expanding operation type when the communication station is operated in the second coded-squelch mode.

Abstract
Apparatus, and an associated method, for companding communication data. Companding is provided for a two-way radio communication station operable pursuant to a coded squelch scheme, such as an MURS or FRS radio. A baseband processor invokes compression operations upon originating communication data that is originated at the communication station. And, the processor invokes operation of expansion operations when the communication data comprises terminating data.

8. Apparatus for a two-way radio communication station that operates pursuant to a coded squelch scheme in a first coded-squelch mode and in a second coded-squelch mode to initiate communication of communication data, said apparatus comprising:
-
a processor embodied at the radio communication station; a detector executable at said processor for detecting presence of the communication data communicated pursuant to operation of the radio communication station; and an invoker executable at said processor responsive to detection by said detector of the communication data, said invoker for invoking compression of the communication data by a selected one of a first compacting type and a second compacting type when the communication data comprises originating data to be sent by the radio communication station selection of which compacting type to invoke responsive to a selection indicia and for invoking expansion by a selected one of a first expanding operation type and a second expanding operation type of the communication data when the communication data comprises terminating data selection of which expanding type to invoke responsive to a selection indicia the communication data compressed by the first compacting type when the communication station is operated in the first coded-squelch mode and the communication data compressed by the second compacting type when the communication station is operated in the second coded-squelch mode, and the communication data expanded by the first expanding operation type when the communication station is operated in the first coded squelch mode and the communication data expanded by the second expanding operation type when the communication station is operated in the second coded-squelch mode. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method for a dual mode, two-way radio communication station, operable in at least both the Family Radio Service (FRS) band and the Multi-User Radio Service (MURS) band, and which operates pursuant to a coded squelch scheme in a first coded-squelch mode and in a second coded-squelch mode to initiate communication of communication data, said method comprising the operations of:
-
detecting the presence of communication data generated for communication pursuant to operation of the radio communication station; invoking compression of the communication data by a selected one of a first compacting type and a second compacting type when the communication data detected during said operation of detecting comprises originating data to be sent by the radio communication system, selection of which of the first and second compacting types responsive to in which of the FRS band and the MURS band that the two-way radio communication station is operated the communication data compressed by the first compacting type when the communication station is operated in the first coded-squelch mode and the communication data compressed by the second compacting type when the communication station is operated in the second coded-squelch; and invoking expansion of the communication data by a selected one of a first expanding operation type and a second expanding operation type when the communication data detected during said operation of detecting comprises terminating data, selection of which of the first and second expanding operation types responsive to in which of the FRS band and the MURS band that the two-way radio communication station is operated, the communication data expanded by the first expanding operation type when the communication station is operated in the first coded-squelch mode and the communication data expanded by the second expanding operation type when the communication station is operated in the second coded-squelch mode. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
