METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INTERRUPTED FLOOR RECOVERY IN PUSH-TO-TALK OVER CELLULAR NETWORK

摘要

As described above, when a particular PoC client participating in a PoC session requests media transmission to a PoC server during transmission of media from another PoC client, the PoC server transitions the PoC client with the floor to a suspended state by sending an MB Suspend message and grants the floor to the requesting PoC client. After media transmission of the interrupting PoC client, the PoC server returns the floor to the interrupted PoC client. Therefore, the privileged PoC client in a current PoC infrastructure interrupts the ongoing conversation and sends media, after which the floor is returned to the interrupted PoC client without issuing an explicit media request from the interrupted PoC client. Even in the pre-emptive case scenario where the pre-emptive PoC client interrupts the ongoing conversation, the conversation can be continued in a natural way.
