System and method to control wireless communications
First Claim
1. A communication method, comprising:
- receiving a first call at a first base transceiver station (BTS) interface of a first distributed mobile architecture (DMA) server from a first mobile communication device, wherein the first DMA server communicates with the first mobile communication device via a first wireless communication protocol;
receiving a second call at a second BTS interface of the first DMA server from a second mobile communication device, wherein the first DMA server communicates with the second mobile communication device via a second wireless communication protocol that is different from the first wireless communication protocol;
converting voice information associated with the first call to first packet data;
converting voice information associated with the second call to second packet data;
determining that a second DMA server communicates with at least a first destination device and at least one second DMA device based on registration data stored at the first DMA server;
routing the first packet data to the second DMA server via a distributed mobile architecture gateway (DMAG); and
routing the second packet data via a private Internet Protocol (IP) network to the at least one second DMA device, wherein the second call is accessible to a second destination device via the at least one second DMA device.

Abstract
A method of controlling wireless communications is provided. A first call is received at a first distributed mobile architecture (DMA) server from a first mobile communication device. The first DMA server communicates with the first mobile communication device via a first wireless communication protocol. A second call is received at the first DMA server from a second mobile communication device. The first DMA server communicates with the second mobile communication device via a second wireless communication protocol. Voice information associated with the first call is converted to first packet data and voice information associated with the second call to second packet data. The first packet data and the second packet data are routed via a private Internet Protocol (IP) network to at least one second DMA device, where the first call is accessible to a first destination device and the second call is accessible to a second destination device via the at least one second DMA device.
