Abstract
A system (20) for simplex dispatch of an information packet (22) utilizing a telecommunication network (24) is provided. The system (20) includes an origination unit (26), a server (42), and a destination unit (28). The origination unit (26) is configured to generate an origination packet (50) containing a voice frame (54), and to transmit the origination packet (50) utilizing a wireless non-circuit-switching service of network (24). The origination unit (26) and the server (42) are coupled through an origination cell site (36) of the network (24). The server (42) is configured to receive the origination packet (50), to convert the origination packet (50) to a destination packet (52) containing a voice frame (54) and/or a text frame (56), and to transmit the destination packet (52). The server (42) and the destination unit (28) are coupled through a destination cell site (46) of the network (24). The destination unit (28) is configured to receive the destination packet (52) utilizing a non-circuit-switching service of the network (24), and to present the contents of the destination packet (52) to a recipient (174).
