Method and system for communicating data over a wireless communication system voice channel utilizing frame gaps
First Claim
1. A method of communicating data over a voice channel of a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of:
- generating a periodic data signal modulated with data and periods of silence, wherein the periods of silence comprise gaps in the data during which no modulation occurs; and
sending the periodic data signal as a voice communication through a vocoder and over a voice channel of a wireless communication system.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method for communicating data over a voice channel of a wireless communication system. The method includes receiving a first periodic data signal and modulating the first periodic data signal to produce a second periodic data signal. Modulating the first periodic data signal includes inserting a predetermined silence period into the first periodic data signal at timed intervals to produce the second periodic data signal. The method further includes communicating the second periodic data signal over the voice channel of the wireless communication system. The method of modulating the first periodic data signal may include receiving a control signal that includes parameters for a length of the predetermined silence period and timing of the intervals, modulating the first periodic data signal responsive to the received control signal, and producing the second periodic data signal.

10. A method of communicating data over a voice channel of a wireless communication system, comprising the steps of:
-
establishing a cellular voice call over a voice channel of a wireless communication system using a selected network transmission standard; generating a periodic data signal modulated with (i) data using frequency shift keying and (ii) periods of silence during which no frequency shift keying modulation occurs; and sending the periodic data signal to a call center over the voice channel of the wireless communication system, whereby the periodic data signal is sent over the wireless communication system using a carrier signal that is transmitted during portions of the periodic data signal that contain the data and during portions of the periodic data signal that contain the periods of silence. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)
