Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for enhancing communications mobility in an enterprise using a distributed communication controller. At least one distributed communication controller processes incoming and outgoing calls from a user device such as wearable and peripheral devices. The calls range in type and include voice calls, video calls, and both voice and video calls. Upon receiving an incoming call for the user comprising audio and video content, the distributed communication controller sends a call notification message to the user device that is in proximity to the distributed communication controller. After receiving a call acceptance input from the user device, the distributed communication controller sends the audio content of the call over a first channel to the user device. While the audio content is being sent over the first channel, the distributed communication controller sends the video content to an alternative device over a different second channel.
