Radio/telephony interoperability system
First Claim
1. A method of providing communications, comprising:
- receiving providing a mobile radio component that facilitates mobile radio communications;
processing access rights for each of the two or more session participants prior to granting access to the session;
creating the teleconferencing session for two or more session participants using a radio/telephony management component;
determining the presence of at least one of the two or more session participants;
transmitting a message to the mobile radio component that selects a radio subcomponent;
connecting a mobile radio operator associated with the radio subcomponent to radio/telephony management component in response to receiving the message; and
binding the mobile radio operator into a teleconferencing session.

Abstract
A radio/telephony interoperability architecture that facilitates intercommunications between a security services network, elected officials and/or emergency services network and a telephony management system for one-way and two-way security and/or emergency teleconferencing communications. The telephony system creates a session in which one or more session participants can communicate with front-line mobile radio operators (e.g., first responder personnel) and radio band components. Mobile radio systems can be accessed via circuit-switched and packet-switched networks with communications capable of existing between horizontal services entities (e.g., city fire and police) and vertical entities (e.g., city, state, and federal agencies and personnel). Furthermore, the presence of participants and potential participants is provided to authorized users to facilitate the establishment of such conferences. Notifications and alarms are used to alert participants and potential participants of important events.
