This disclosure relates to communication systems and, more particularly, to communication systems that may communicate using multiple communication methodologies.
Handheld electronic devices may enable wireless voice communication via various communication methodologies. For example, voice communications may be typically made via a PSTN (i.e., Public Switched Telephone Network) communication methodology. Alternatively and if the device is so configured, voice communications may be made via a VoIP (i.e., Voice over IP) communication methodology.
Unfortunately, the transitioning from a first methodology to a second methodology may be complicated and not automated, often resulting in the frustration of the user.
In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes monitoring a data signal quality level for a wireless client electronic device. The data signal strength quality is indicative of the level of data connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a wireless data network. A cellular signal strength level is monitored for the wireless client electronic device. The cellular signal strength level is indicative of the level of cellular connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a cellular network. The cellular network is a PSTN network. A request for voice communication with the wireless client electronic device is received. If the cellular signal strength level is not sufficient to support the voice communication and the data signal quality level is sufficient to support the voice communication, voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the wireless data network is enabled. If the cellular signal strength level is sufficient to support the voice communication, voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the cellular network is enabled.
In another implementation, a computer-implemented method includes monitoring a data signal quality level for a wireless client electronic device. The data signal quality level is indicative of the level of data connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a wireless data network. A cellular signal strength level is monitored for the wireless client electronic device. The cellular signal strength level is indicative of the level of cellular connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a cellular network. A request for voice communication with the wireless client electronic device is received. If the cellular signal strength level is not sufficient to support the voice communication and the data signal quality level is sufficient to support the voice communication, voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the wireless data network is enabled.
One or more of the following features may be included. Enabling the voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the wireless data network may include enabling the voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the wireless data network using VoIP. If the cellular signal strength level is sufficient to support the voice communication, voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the cellular network may be enabled. The request for voice communication may be from the wireless client electronic device to a second client electronic device. The request for voice communication may concern the wireless client electronic device attempting to call the second client electronic device. The request for voice communication may be from a second client electronic device to the wireless client electronic device.

In
As will be discussed below in greater detail, communication process 10 may monitor 100 a data signal quality level for a wireless client electronic device, wherein the data signal quality level is indicative of the level of data connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a wireless data network. Communication process 10 may monitor 102 a cellular signal strength level for the wireless client electronic device, wherein the cellular signal strength level is indicative of the level of cellular connectivity between the wireless client electronic device and a cellular network. Communication process 10 may receive 104 a request for voice communication with the wireless client electronic device. If the cellular signal strength level is not sufficient to support the voice communication and the data signal quality level is sufficient to support the voice communication, communication process 10 may enable 106 the voice communication with the wireless client electronic device via the wireless data network.
Communication process 10s may be a server-side application and may reside on and may be executed by computing device 12, which may be connected to network 14 (e.g., the Internet or a local area network). Examples of computing device 12 may include, but are not limited to: a personal computer, a laptop computer, a personal digital assistant, a data-enabled cellular telephone, a notebook computer, a television with one or more processors embedded therein or coupled thereto, a server computer, a series of server computers, a mini computer, a mainframe computer, or a dedicated network device.
The instruction sets and subroutines of communication process 10s, which may be stored on storage device 16 coupled to computing device 12, may be executed by one or more processors (not shown) and one or more memory architectures (not shown) included within computing device 12. Examples of storage device 16 may include but are not limited to: a hard disk drive; a tape drive; an optical drive; a RAID device; a random access memory (RAM); a read-only memory (ROM); and all forms of flash memory storage devices.
Communication process 10c may be a client-side application and may reside on and may be executed by wireless client electronic device 18. Examples of wireless client electronic device 18 may include, but are not limited to, a data-enabled, cellular telephone and a video conferencing device.
The instruction sets and subroutines of communication process 10c, which may be stored on storage device 20 coupled to wireless client electronic device 18, may be executed by one or more processors (not shown) and one or more memory architectures (not shown) incorporated into wireless client electronic device 18. Examples of storage device 20 may include but are not limited to: hard disk drives; tape drives; optical drives; RAID devices; random access memories (RAM); read-only memories (ROM), and all forms of flash memory storage devices.
Wireless client electronic device 18 may be wirelessly coupled to network 14 using a variety of methodologies. For example, wireless client electronic device 18 may be wirelessly coupled to network 14 via wireless communication channel 22 established between wireless client electronic device 18 and cellular network/bridge 24, which is shown directly coupled to network 14. Further, wireless client electronic device 18 may be wirelessly coupled to network 14 via wireless communication channel 26 established between wireless client electronic device 18 and wireless access point (i.e., WAP) 28, which is shown directly coupled to network 14.
WAP 28 may be, for example, an IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, 802.11n, Wi-Fi, and/or Bluetooth device that is capable of establishing wireless communication channel 26 between wireless client electronic device 18 and WAP 28. As is known in the art, IEEE 802.11x specifications may use Ethernet protocol and carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (i.e., CSMA/CA) for path sharing. The various 802.11x specifications may use phase-shift keying (i.e., PSK) modulation or complementary code keying (i.e., CCK) modulation, for example. As is known in the art, Bluetooth is a telecommunications industry specification that allows e.g., mobile phones, computers, and personal digital assistants to be interconnected using a short-range wireless connection.
User 30 may use wireless client electronic device 18 to make phone/video calls. For example, user 30 may place phone/video calls to and receive phone/video calls from user 32.
Communication process 10 may be configured to analyze the connectivity of wireless client electronic device 18 to determine the best way to handle voice calls or the voice portion of video calls (collectively referred to as voice communications). For example, when user 30 receives a voice communication to (or initiates a voice communication from) wireless client electronic device 18, communication process 10 may determine the best way to route the voice communication to wireless client electronic device 18. Communication process 10 may be configured (by default) to route voice communications to wireless client electronic device 18 via PSTN (if possible) using wireless communication channel 22 established between wireless client electronic device 18 and cellular network/bridge 24.
In the event that the voice communication cannot be routed to wireless client electronic device 18 via PSTN, communication process 10 may automatically route the voice communication to wireless client electronic device 18 via VoIP (if possible). Such a VoIP call may be made using wireless communication channel 26 established between wireless client electronic device 18 and WAP 28 or wireless communication channel 22 established between wireless client electronic device 18 and cellular network/bridge 24. Accordingly, if user 30 of wireless client electronic device 18 is at their home (which has both cellular (i.e., PSTN) connectivity and Wi-Fi (i.e., VoIP) connectivity), communication process 10 may (by default) route voice communications to wireless client electronic device 18 using PSTN. Accordingly, communication process 10 may decide how to route voice communications based, at least in part, upon cellular signal strength (i.e., PSTN signal strength) and Wi-Fi signal strength (i.e., VoIP signal strength), wherein communication process 10 may route voice communications to wireless client electronic device 18 as PSTN calls (if such a connection is available). If a PSTN connection is not available but a VoIP connection is available, communication process 10 may route voice communications to wireless client electronic device 18 as VoIP calls.
Accordingly, communication process 10 may monitor 100 a data signal quality level for wireless client electronic device 18. For example, communication process 10 may monitor 100 data signal strength level 34, which may be indicative of the level of data connectivity between wireless client electronic device 18 and a wireless data network (e.g., wireless data network 36). An example of wireless data network 36 may include but is not limited to a wifi network. Further, when communication process 10 monitors 100 the above-described data signal quality level, communication process 10 may consider various other factors. Examples of the factors that communication process 10 may consider may include but are not limited to a) latency; b) bandwidth; c) jitter; and d) packet loss.
Latency: In computer networking and computer science, latency (or packet delivery time) may be expressed as the amount of time from when the first bit of a packet leaves the transmitter until the last bit of the packet is received by the recipient. In the case of a physical link, latency may be expressed as: Transmission Time+Propagation Delay. When network connections include several physical links/forwarding nodes, the total latency may depend upon the sum of latencies of each link (and may also include packet queuing time and any processing delays).
Bandwidth: In computer networking and computer science, bandwidth may be expressed as a measurement of bit-rate of available or consumed data communication resources expressed in bits per second or multiples thereof (e.g., bits/second, kilobits/second, megabits/second, gigabits/second).
Jitter: In computer networking and computer science, jitter (or packet delay variation) may be expressed as the difference in the end-to-end one-way delay between selected packets in a data flow (with any lost packets being ignored). In other words, jitter relates to variations in the rate at which individual packets (within a data flow) travel from transmitter to recipient.
Packet Loss: In computer networking and computer science, packet loss is a manner of expressing (e.g., as a percentage or ratio) the quantity of packets that fail to reach their destination when traveling from a transmitter to a recipient through a computer network. Packet loss may be considered one of the three main error types encountered during digital communications; the other two being bit error and spurious packets due to noise.
Communication process 10 may monitor 102 a cellular signal strength level (e.g., cellular signal strength level 38) for wireless client electronic device 18. Cellular signal strength level 38 may be indicative of the level of cellular connectivity between wireless client electronic device 18 and a cellular network (e.g., cellular network 40). An example of cellular network 40 may include but is not limited to a PSTN network.
Communication process 10 may receive 104 a request (e.g., request 42) for voice communication with wireless client electronic device 18 concerning e.g., a second client electronic device (e.g., second client electronic device 44). Request 42 for voice communication may be: a) from wireless client electronic device 18 to second client electronic device 44 (e.g., wireless client electronic device 18 attempting to call second client electronic device 44); or from second client electronic device 44 to wireless client electronic device 18 (e.g., second client electronic device 44 attempting to call wireless client electronic device 18). Examples of second client electronic device 44 may include but is not limited to a landline telephone, a video conferencing device, a cellular telephone, and a wireless telephone.
If cellular signal strength level 38 is not sufficient to support the voice communication and the data signal quality level (which, as discussed above, may consider one or more of data signal strength level 34; latency; bandwidth; jitter; and packet loss) is sufficient to support the voice communication, communication process 10 may enable 106 the voice communication with wireless client electronic device 18 via wireless data network 36. When enabling 106 the voice communication with wireless client electronic device 18 via wireless data network 36, communication process 10 may enable 108 the voice communication with wireless client electronic device 18 via wireless data network 36 using VoIP. Alternatively, communication process 10 may enable 106 the voice communication with wireless client electronic device 18 as a VoIP call via cellular network 40 (as cellular network 40 may function as a wireless data network for VoIP calls).
If cellular signal strength level 38 is sufficient to support the voice communication, communication process 10 may enable 110 the voice communication with wireless client electronic device 18 via cellular network 40. For example, communication process 10 may enable 110 PSTN voice communication with wireless client electronic device 18 via cellular network 40
Communication process 10 may be configured so that if one or more of cellular signal strength level 38 and the above-described data signal quality level change during e.g., a phone call or a video call between users 30, 32, communication process 10 may reroute the call based upon these changes. For example, if cellular signal strength level 38 becomes sufficient to support a PSTN voice communication after it was initiated as a VoIP voice communication (e.g., on wireless data network 36 or cellular network 40), communication process 10 may reroute the voice communication from VoIP to PSTN. Conversely, if cellular signal strength level 38 becomes insufficient to support a PSTN voice communication after it was initiated as a PSTN voice communication, communication process 10 may reroute the voice communication from PSTN to VoIP (e.g., on wireless data network 36 or cellular network 40).
Additionally, communication process 10 may monitor 112 one or more location-based criteria with respect to wireless client electronic device 18. Examples of such location-based criteria may include but are not limited to:
Accordingly, communication process 10 may utilize the above-described location-based criteria when determining whether to enable 106 voice communication via the wireless data network or enable 110 voice communication via cellular network 40.
