BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates generally to wireless communication systems and, particularly, to asynchronous wireless communication systems and devices that use radio frequencies for transmitting and receiving voice, data and digital video signals within an internal communications network and to an external communication network. More particularly, the wireless communication systems and devices operate with a novel Time-Shared Full Duplex (TSFD) asynchronous wireless communication protocol.

Wireless communication systems continue to grow, particularly in the areas of cellular and digital telephony and in paging systems. Wireless systems are especially popular in remote areas of the world that have limited wired service because of the cost and difficulty of building a wired infrastructure.

Traditional wireless communication systems such as cellular telephones use radio communication between a plurality of subscriber units within the synchronous wireless system and between subscriber units and the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) for calls that are outside of the wireless system. Most of these systems are characterized by wireless mobile telephone units communicating synchronously with base stations that are connected to centralized mobile switching centers (MSC), which are in turn connected to the PSTN. The centralized MSC performs a number of functions, including routing wireless mobile units calls to other mobile units and wired (land-line) users and routing land-line calls to mobile units. At no time do these traditional wireless communications systems allow the handset to interface with the PSTN or other external networks directly. The very core of the centralized wireless communications theory requires every PSTN interface to be made through an MSC. This is the only interface allowed.

Others' systems use point-to-point radio communication where mobile units may communicate with other mobile units in the local area. They send origin and destination address formation and make use of squelching circuits to direct the wireless transmission to the correct destination address. Most of these systems do not appear to provide a connection to a PSTN to send and receive calls outside the wireless network. This type of system is decentralized, but because of the decentralization, collecting accurate billing information may be a problem.

Another form of wireless system is called a local multipoint distribution service (LDMS). In an LMDS system, a local area or cell that is approximately 4 km in diameter contains fixed base stations, geographically distributed throughout the local area. One or more antennas within the local area receive calls from the fixed base stations and relay the calls to other fixed base stations. In order for the system to work, the fixed base stations must be within the line-of-sight path of at least one of the antenna units. The LDMS does not provide for mobile stations. Calls can only be routed within the local area and not to an external network. The system is essentially a centralized system within a local area. If one station is not within the line of sight of the antenna, it is effectively cut off from communication.

There is a need for decentralized wireless communication systems that are capable of handling voice, data and real-time digital streaming video communication that allow for a multiplicity of communication paths. It is desirable to have an ability to call on bandwidths as needed, to provide local communication links, and to access links to external networks. Such networks may include public switch Telephone Networks, high speed-broadband cable, Internet, satellites and radio emergency networks. It is desirable to have a system that does not require a centralized switching center, provides for secure operation, allows for control of the operational state of the internal network, provides for emergency notification and provides a way to collect revenue from the system. It is desirable to have elements within the system that allow for the remote controlled gathering of data, the preprogrammed remote gathering of data, the remote controlling of systems external to the internal network, the remote controlling of the operational state of systems external to the network and providing alternative paths for the relaying of signals. It is also desirable to provide alternate direct-path communication between wireless devices and the PSTN, without centralized switching or to provide alternate direct-path communication between remotely placed wireless data collection, reporting and remote control devices and the PSTN, also without centralized switching. Such interfaces augment the conventional path routing and reduce call loads on any central communications interface. It is also prudent to oversee the entire operational state of the network, its various components and signal routing devices with an Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based Distributive Routing System; an artificial "machine" learning software based logic manager prepared to assist and/or provide guidance during any unfortunate catastrophic failure of major wireless infrastructure elements or during inevitable wireless set call connection failures due to peak hours call overloading experienced in a mature wireless system.

It is further desirable to have the AI system govern and administer parallel computing and system hardware operations during catastrophic failures.

The present invention discloses such a system, herein referred to as the Time-Shared Full Duplex (TSFD) Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence-based Distributive Call Routing Wireless Communication System, or simply known in its short form the TSFD wireless communication system. This system is particularly suitable for operation in rural areas where population density is low and wireless coverage is either not currently available or inadequately serviced and where limited remote data gathering or remote control of systems or devices via wireless means is in operation. In the United States, the system is suitable for operation using the PCS spectrum (1850-1960 MHz or the Wireless Communications Service (WCS) spectrum at 2320-2360 MHz that are licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) or any other such frequency as may be determined suitable above 50 megahertz and less than 5 gigahertz. The wireless devices in the system incorporate a modular multi-mode capability to extend the wireless service area with a potential variety of standard wireless formats and bands, such as AMPS, D-AMPS, IS-95, IS-136, and GSM1900. This is an important feature because widespread deployment of a new wireless service takes appreciable time, and there are many other wireless standards from which to choose since these new customers may also venture into standard PCS or cellular markets.

With the advent of music, video and ringtone downloads into wireless handsets, camera pics, digital video capturing and sending, the world is ready for a system where the Internet and computer transmission formats (asynchronous packets) can be enable in a mobile wireless handset. Soon, even the term "handset" will vanish as the world transitions to wireless enabled microcomputers. Even the "modern" Personal Digital Assist (PDA) will become incapable of retaining all the information the users will expect of tote with them. Music and I-Pod device technologies alone have propelled the expansion of memory storage and file management to ever higher levels of proficiencies.

Overall, the US rural market and other major applications for the TSFD wireless communication system of the present invention are enormous. A few of these include: emerging nations, especially those that presently have limited or no telephone service, and those communities or groups that require a stand alone wireless communication network that can be quickly and cost-effectively deployed. Further; military, law enforcement, disaster management or remote commercial installations yield extremely viable market potentials.

The TSFD wireless communication system's attributes of low cost remote sensing and remote control of other devices and processing through such versatile wireless devices is also critical to markets isolated from major urban economies and is ideally suited to developing nations hunger for affordable technology.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

While this invention is susceptible of embodiment in many different forms, there is shown in the drawings, and will be described herein in detail, specific embodiments thereof with the understanding that the present disclosure is to be considered as an exemplification of the principles of the invention and is not intended to limit the invention to the specific embodiments illustrated.

The present invention is directed to devices and methods that provide a user of a decentralized asynchronous parallel-configured wireless communication system for voice, data and live digital video streaming communication with the ability to select various communication paths and calling bandwidths as needed. In a preferred embodiment, the system uses a novel Time-Shared Full Duplex (TSFD) protocol for communications. The TSFD protocol allows the transmission of live digital video signals from one wireless device to another wireless device by using the novel Integrated Direct Data Transfer (IDDT) inserted in the TSFD protocol. The system provides local communication as well as optional links to external networks, and does not require a synchronous centralized switching center. It further provides secure operation, emergency notification and a way to collect revenue from the system, and allows for control of the operational state of the internal network and optional remote control of the operational state control of systems external to the network. The operational state can be a static state in which the internal network is turned "ON" or "OFF" by a command, or the operational state can by a dynamic state controlling of the functions and operations of the systems. Communications between the various elements of the TSFD wireless communication system are monitored and analyzed by a system-resident and fully decentralized Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence-based Distributive Routing System, resulting in re-directing the communication paths to ensure call loads of the Parallel-configured Signal Extender (PSE) and Parallel-configured Network Extender (PNE) in the system do not exceed a predetermined limit for each PSE or PNE, to optimize call loads of the PSE and PNE in the system, or to bypass any failed PSE or PNE in the system.

The decentralized asynchronous communication system of the present invention using the TSFD communication protocol, herein referred to as the Time-Shared Full Duplex (TSFD) Parrallel Computing Artificial Intelligence-based Distributive Call Routing Wireless Communication System (or simply known as the TSFD wireless communication system), comprises six primary elements: (1) TSFD wireless handsets carried by mobile users; (2) TSFD wireless Personal Computer Data Communications Cards (TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards), also known as the Personal Computer TSFD Multi-mode Wireless Access Cards, which may include a TSFD Telephone, PCS telephone, Wirless Fidelity (WiFi) links, Bluetooth links, and Red Fang Links; (3) TSFD wireless external data communications modules (TSFD wireless X-DatComs) for remotely gathering data or remotely controlling systems external to the device or to the network; (4) TSFD wireless communications docking bays (TSFD wireless X-DatComs) for providing alternative connections to internal or external networks; (5) Parallel-configured TSFD Signal Extenders (PSEs) for relaying TSFD wireless handset, TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Card, TSFD wireless ComDoc or X-DatCom signals; and (6) Parallel-configured TSFD Network Extenders (PNEs) for interconnecting signals from PSEs or other PNEs. The first four elements are collectively known as the "wireless devices" or the "wireless set" for the TSFD wireless communication system in the present invention. The PSEs and PNEs comprise the infrastructure equipment that is located at antenna tower sites while TSFD wireless ComDoc sets are located in a subscriber's home or business, TSFD wireless X-DatComs comprise a varied array of remotely placed data gathering or remote control devices, TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards are a multiple network access "WiFi-like" card of Personal Computers and TSFD wireless handsets provide the mainstay of the entire TSFD wireless communication system. For the system to be functional, it is not required to have all the six elements. The system can function with the PSEs, the PNEs and one or more of the wireless devices selected from the TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards, TSFD wireless X-DatComs, and TSFD wireless ComDocs. Alternatively, the wireless devices can communicate with each other directly without having to communicate via a PSE and/or a PNE. The TSFD wireless devices share the same basic design. However, each wireless device can serve one or more specific functions either as a handset, a ComDoc, an X-DatCom or a PC-DatCom Card as needed. Thus, a wireless device can have a single function or have multiple functions. Unless otherwise stated, the TSFD wireless handset in the present disclosure can be a stand-alone wireless handset to be carried by a mobile user, or it can be associated with another TSFD wireless device including the TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Card, the TSFD wireless X-DatCom, and the TSFD wireless ComDoc. What is meant by "associated" is that the device has a dual function. For example, a TSFD wireless handset associated with a TSFD wireless X-DatCom means that the device has both the functions of the TSFD wireless handset and the functions of the TSFD X-DatCom combined in one device.

In further illuminating the TSFD wireless communication system, any fixed location wireless component that is permanently fixed to a location is known as a "TSFD Anchored Component" and all TSFD wireless devices which are not fixed to a permanent location are known as "TSFD Mobile Devices.` Thus, the "TSFD Anchored Components" include the PSEs and the PNEs while the "TSFD Mobile Devices" include the TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless ComDocs, TSFD wireless X-DatComs and TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards. Althought the TSFD wireless X-DatComs are intended to be placed in a "fixed" location and are not intended to be "mobile" in certain applictions, the TSFD wireless X-DatComs are still considered as a "TSFD Mobile Device" since it is not fixed to a permanent location and can be moved easily if needed. These terms are essential in disclosures of operations and configurations of the TSFD E-911 Locator System described herein.

TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless ComDocs, TSFD wireless X-DatComs and TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards are assigned standard telephone numbers and are capable of placing and accepting calls with telephones in the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) through the PNEs. Calls that are placed between TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless ComDocs, TSFD wireless X-DatComs or TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards contained within the TSFD wireless network do not require routing through a PSTN. A TSFD wireless ComDoc interface device is designed to allow restricted and private access to a TSFD wireless handset owner's home or office telephone landline, thus creating a private link to the PSTN without necessity of routing the wireless call through the PNE for an interface to the PSTN. TSFD wireless X-DatComs are varied in design to meet application needs but all have the capabilities of being placed in remote locations to gather data or control processes or devices external to their own circuitry or to the network. TSFD wireless X-DatComs may facilitate a communication between other external network devices equipped for ultra short range communication. These include ultra-wide-band, Red Fang, Bluetooth, or infrared spectrum protocols. Besides handling voice, data and the proprietary Integrated Direct Data Transfer (IDDT) for inserting a live video data stream into a standard Time Shared Full Duplex Protocol transmissions, the overall system also supports a wide variety of telephone features such as Internet access, cable modem access, bi-directional data transfer and variable bandwidth wireless calling channels. Direct connection to other external networks include: the PSTN, cable and other wireless protocols via the multi-mode module in the Radio Frequency (RF) section of TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless ComDocs, TSFD wireless X-DatComs and TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards. The TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless ComDocs, TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards and TSFD wireless X-DatComs may have Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) options to establish wireless connectivity to other devices. Communication between the various elements of the TSFD wireless communication system is monitored by a system-resident and fully decentralized Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence-based Distributive Routing System.

The Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based Distributive Routing System comprises a group of computers of the Personal Computer style, with superior features and performance linked together by a dedicated Local Area Network (LAN) and each computer having a Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence software program to gather information regarding timely calling data, routing and wireless device use histories and to analyze the information for recommending or executing alternative communication paths within the entire system of the PSEs and the PNE during excessive peak hours loading of the PNE or during a catastrophic failure of any PSE or a PNE. Further, during such times as a failure occurs and is detected by the AI system, within any fixed location or "Anchored" TSFD system, the Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence System is solely responsible for switching systems and subsystems to maintain continuous and "seamless" operations within these Parallel-configured TSFD Infrastructure Components. The primary computer in the group would reside near, but not within, a PNE, with all other computers residing in the electronic component environmental housing of each PSE. All units share information and are programmed to operate as a single "entity" via the TSFD LAN. Any single computer can be disconnected and the system will still function. The term "parallel computing" is an operational function of the system, wherein a task could be distributed at the same time to several units for analysis. Failure of analysis is then less likely since the transactions are computed in "parallel". Resulting data (answers to the transaction) are utilized by the first system to complete the task.

The Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence System may further provide reports the day's gathered information to each of the other PSE AI Computers for comparative analysis and the making of logical suggestions to the TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless ComDocs, TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards and TSFD wireless X-DatComs operating within the system. The Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence System is programmed to gather relevant data from remotely placed TSFD wireless X-DatCom modules by means of a wireless protocol established for operations of the system. The Time-Shared Full Duplex (TSFD) wireless protocol is established for operations of the system interfaced with a network including for example, but is not limited to, Public Switch Telephone Network lines, a fiber optic communication link, a coaxial cable, a public TCP/IP network, a directional emergency tower to tower microwave link, a satellite communication link, a ComDoc routed to other destinations and data collection devices selected by the Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence System.

The enhanced 911 (E-911) wireless device locator of the TSFD wireless "Mobile" devices is supported and shared equally by the Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence-based System and the resident operations computer within the PNE. Should one of these systems fail in the location process, the other assumes the task.

An embodiment of the present invention discloses a method of operating a parallel-configured TSFD wireless communication system for voice and data signals, the system comprising one or more macrocells and each macrocell having a plurality of microcells. The method comprises: establishing a local communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between a local TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed local TSFD wireless device within a same microcell via a PSE; establishing an extended communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between an extended TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed extended TSFD wireless device located within different microcells positioned within a same macrocell via PSEs and a PNE; establishing a distant communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between a distant TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed distant TSFD wireless device located within different microcells positioned within different macrocells via PSEs and PNEs; and asynchronously transmitting and receiving half-duplex signals over the communication paths using pairs of assigned communication path frequencies stabilized by a GPS-based frequency reference source. The TSFD wireless device can be selected from the group consisting of TSFD wireless handsets, TSFD wireless PC-DatCom Cards, TSFD wireless DatComs, and TSFD wireless ComDocs. The communication paths can be monitored and analyzed by a system-resident and decentralized Parallel Computing Artificial Intelligence-based Distributive Routing System, resulting in re-directing the communication paths to ensure call loads of the PSE and PNE in the system do not exceed a predetermined limit for each PSE or PNE, to optimize call loads of the PSE and PNE in the system, or to bypass any failed PSE or PNE in the system. The step of establishing a local communication path may comprise: transmitting signals from the local TSFD wireless devices to the PSE; receiving and re-transmitting signals by the PSE to the local TSFD wireless devices; and receiving signals from the PSE by the local TSFD wireless devices.

The step of establishing a distant communication path may comprise: transmitting signals from the distant TSFD wireless devices to the PSEs; receiving and re-transmitting signals from the distant TSFD wireless devices by the PSEs to the PNEs; receiving and re-transmitting signals from the PSEs by a PNE to another PNE; receiving and re-transmitting signals from a PNE by another PNE to PSEs; receiving and re-transmitting signals from PNEs by PSEs to the distant TSFD wireless devices; and receiving signals from PSEs by the distant TSFD wireless devices. The step of receiving and re-transmitting signals by a PNE to another PNE may be selected from, but is not limited to, the group consisting of transmitting signals over a Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN), transmitting signals over a fiber optic communication link, transmitting signals over a coaxial cable, transmitting signals over a public TCP/IP network, and transmitting signals over a satellite communication link. Half of the signals received by a PSE in a microcell may be transmitted by TSFD wireless devices in the microcell in a low radio frequency band and half of the signals received by the PSE in a macrocell may be transmitted by a PNE in the macrocell in a low radio frequency band. Half of the signals transmitted by a PSE in a microcell may be received by a TSFD wireless device in the microcell in a high radio frequency band and half of the signals transmitted by the PSE in a macrocell may be received by a PNE in the macrocell in a high radio frequency band. The transmitting and receiving signals between a TSFD wireless device or PSE or a PNE and another TSFD wireless device or PSE or PNE may be conducted asynchronously with a TSFD protocol. The step of establishing a local voice communication path between a local TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed local TSFD wireless device may comprise using two fixed frequencies in a sub-band spectrum for establishing a local voice channel. The step of establishing a local data communication path under a four channel Contiguous Channel Acquisition Protocol between a local TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed local TSFD wireless device may comprise using two fixed frequencies having a bandwidth of four times the bandwidth of a local voice channel by combining four contiguous voice channels. The step of establishing a local data communication path under a twelve channel Contiguous Channel Acquisition Protocol Plus between a local TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed local TSFD wireless device under a twelve channel Contiguous Channel Acquisition Protocol Plus may comprise using two fixed frequencies having a bandwith of twelve times the bandwith of a local voice channel by combining twelve continguous voice channels. The step of establishing an extended voice communication path may comprise using four fixed frequencies in a sub-band spectrum for establishing an extended voice channel. The step of establishing an extended data communication path under a four channel Contiguous Channel Acquisition Protocol between an extended TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed extended TSFD wireless device may comprise using four fixed frequencies having a bandwidth of four times the bandwidth of an extended voice channel by combining four contiguous voice channels. The step of establishing an extended data communication path under a twelve channel Contiguous Channel Acquisition Protocol Plus between an extended TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed extended TSFD wireless device may comprise using four fixed frequencies having a bandwidth of twelve times a bandwidth of an extended voice channel by combining twelve contiguous voice channels. The step of establishing a distant voice communication path may comprise using four fixed frequencies in a sub-band spectrum for establishing a distant voice channel. The step of establishing a distant data communication path under a four channel Contiguous Channel Acquisition Protocol between a distant TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed distant TSFD wireless device may comprise using four fixed frequencies having a bandwidth of four times the bandwidth of a distant voice channel by combining four contiguous voice channels. The step of establishing a distant data communication path under a twelve channel Contiguous Channel Acquisition Protocol Plus between a distant TSFD wireless device and a remotely placed distant TSFD wireless device may comprise using four fixed frequencies having a bandwidth of twelve times a bandwidth of a distant voice channel by combining twelve contiguous voice channels. The method may further comprise establishing a communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between a TSFD wireless device and an external network via a PSE and a PNE connected to the external network. The external network may be selected from, but is not limited to, the group consisting of a Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN), a fiber optic communication link, a coaxial cable, a public TCP/IP network, and a satellite communication link. The method may further comprise establishing a communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between a TSFD wireless device and an external network via a TSFD wireless device connected to the external network. The external network may be selected from, but is not limited to, the group consisting of a Public Switch Telephone Network (PSTN), a fiber optic communication link, a coaxial cable, a public TCP/IP network, and a satellite communication link. The method may further comprise establishing a communication path for transmitting and receiving signals between a TSFD wireless device and a local communication network.
