System and method for identifying talk burst sources
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- obtaining, at a client included in a push-to-talk (PTT) system, a plurality of talk bursts including at least a first talk burst and a second talk burst, the first talk burst being associated with a first source included in the PTT system, the second talk burst being associated with a second source included in the PTT system, wherein the plurality of talk bursts are obtained at approximately a first time;
identifying the first source and the second source;
identifying the first source as a source of interest;
determining, after identifying the first source as the source of interest, an identity of the first source; and
processing the first talk burst as having a priority over the second talk burst.

Abstract
According to one aspect, a method includes obtaining, at a client included in a push-to-talk (PTT) system, a plurality of talk bursts including at least a first talk burst and a second talk burst, the first talk burst being associated with a first source included in the PTT system, the second talk burst being associated with a second source included in the PTT system, wherein the plurality of talk bursts are obtained at approximately a first time. The method also includes identifying the first source as a source of interest and determining, after identifying the first source as the source of interest, an identity of the first source. Finally, the method includes processing the first talk burst as having a priority over the second talk burst.

8. Logic encoded in one or more tangible non-transitory, computer-readable media for execution and when executed operable to:
-
obtain a plurality of talk bursts including at least a first talk burst and a second talk burst, the first talk burst being associated with a first source included in a Push-to-Talk (PTT) system, the second talk burst being associated with a second source included in the PTT system, wherein the plurality of talk bursts are obtained at approximately a first time; identify the first source and the second source; identify the first source as a source of interest; determine, after identifying the first source as the source of interest, an identity of the first source; and process the first talk burst as having a priority over the second talk burst. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. An apparatus comprising:
-
a processor; a communications interface, the communications interface configured to obtain a plurality of talk bursts including at least a first talk burst and a second talk burst, the first talk burst being associated with a first source included in a push-to-talk (PTT) system, the second talk burst being associated with a second source included in the PTT system, wherein the plurality of talk bursts are obtained at approximately a first time; and logic configured to be executed by the processor, the logic including a talk burst identification module, the talk burst identification module being arranged recognize the first source and the second source, to identify the first source as a source of interest, to determine an identity of the first source if the first source is identified as the source of interest, and to process the first talk burst as having a priority over the second talk burst. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
