Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for providing support for voice communications and data communications at a base station which has a plurality of transceivers, each having a voice mode of operation and a data mode of operation, is disclosed. A first voice call is assigned to a first transceiver, wherein the mode of the transceiver is set to the voice mode of operation. A data transmission is assigned to a second available transceiver, wherein the mode of the transceiver is set to the data mode of operation. The data transmission is halted when a second voice call needs to be handled by the second transceiver. The mode of operation of the second transceiver is changed from the data mode to the voice mode and the second call is initiated. The data transmission is then assigned to the next available transceiver as long as a voice call does not need to be carried, wherein the mode of the transceiver is set to the data mode of operation.
