Claims
- 1. A method of coded squelch operation of radio transceivers in a two-way radio communication system comprising the steps of:
- entering a code representation of a squelch code of a second transceiver into a first memory of a first transceiver;
- retrieving said code representation of said squelch code of said second transceiver from said first memory of said first transceiver;
- modulating a transmitter signal of said first transceiver with said squelch code of said second transceiver;
- retrieving a code representation of a squelch code of the first transceiver from a second memory of the first transceiver; and
- modulating said transmitter signal of said first transceiver with the squelch code of the first transceiver
- receiving and decoding said squelch code of said second transceiver from said transmitter signal of said first transceiver at said second transceiver,
- comparing and correlating said decoded squelch code of said second transceiver with a representation of the squelch code of said second transceiver stored in a first memory in said second transceiver,
- receiving and decoding said squelch code of said first transceiver from said transmitter signal of said first transceiver at said second transceiver, and storing a representation of said squelch code of said first transceiver decoded from said transmitter signal of said first transceiver in a second memory of said second transceiver if said decoded squelch code of said second transceiver and said representation of the squelch code of said second transceiver stored in the first memory in said second transceiver are appropriately correlated, and
- after the end of said transmitter signal of said first transceiver, retrieving said representations of said squelch codes of said first and second transceivers stored in the first and second memories in said second transceiver and modulating a transmitter signal of said second transceiver with said squelch codes of said first and second transceivers if said decoded squelch code of said second transceiver and said representation of the squelch code of said second transceiver stored in the first memory in said second transceiver are appropriately correlated.
- 2. The method of claim 1 comprising the further steps of:
- modulating said transmitter signal of said first transceiver with voice signals, and
- modulating said transmitter signal of said second transceiver with voice signals.
- 3. A coded squelch radio transceiver for two-way radio communications in a coded squelch radio system, comprising:
- a transmitter for producing a transmitter signal;
- first storage means for storing a first code representation corresponding to a squelch code for identification of said transceiver;
- second storage means for storing a second code representation corresponding to a second squelch code, said second squelch code representing a destination code for another transceiver in the radio system;
- input means, coupled to said second storage means, for entering said second code representation into said second storage means;
- encoder means, coupled to said transmitter, and said first and second storage means, for fetching said second code representation and said first code representation from said second and said first storage means respectively, and for modulating said transmitter signal with said second squelch code and said first squelch code of said transceiver for communicating with said another transceiver;
- a receiver for receiving incoming signals including first and second squelch codes respectively representing the identidication and destination codes transmitted by other transceivers; and
- decoder means, coupled to said receiver and said first and second storage means, for comparing and correlating decoded incoming second squelch codes in said incoming signals with said first code representation, and for storing representations of incoming first squelch codes in said second storage means as said second code representation if said decoded incoming second squelch codes and said first code representation are appropriately correlated, whereby said transceiver produces a transmitter signal directed to another transceiver from which said incoming signals are received without further entering of said second code representation into said second storage means for responding to communications from said another transceiver.
- 4. The radio transceiver of claim 3, wherein said input means includes manual input means.
- 5. The radio transceiver of claim 4, wherein said manual input means includes a keypad.
- 6. The transceiver of claim 3, wherein;
- said first and second squelch codes comprise tone codes.
- 7. The transceiver of claim 3, wherein;
- said first and second squelch codes comprise digital codes.
