Method and system for providing full duplex services over multiple simplex media paths and sessions

摘要: Methods for providing full duplex media service over a com munications network employing simplex media paths are presented including: establishing a simplex media path and session over a terminal using a communication protocol; establishing an additional simplex media path and session over an additional terminal using the communication proto col; and utilizing the simplex media path and session with the additional simplex media path and session to provide full duplex media service between the terminal and the additional terminal. In some embodiments, after establishing the addi tional simplex media path and session, processing media on the additional terminal. In some embodiments, the commu nications network is a Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) net work and the simplex media path and session and the addi tional simplex media path and session are Push-to-Talk (PTT) sessions.
