ABSTRACT:
A system and method for setting up a telephone call over a communication path having at least one wireless communication link comprises a universal radio converter (URC) connected to a standard non-wireless device by way of a standard analog interface over which DTMF tone signals are transmitted. Upon receiving the first tone signal, the URC establishes a wireless communication link with a base station. After the communication link is established, the URC transmits to the base station the dialed numbers as they are received from the standard non-wireless device. The base station performs digit analysis as the dialed numbers are received according to a local call numbering format, and sends a call setup request message to the network. A preferred URC is equipped with means to detect an emergency call request, such as a "911" call, upon which the URC establishes a wireless communication link over an emergency call channel. The invention is illustrated in one embodiment with respect to a preferred TDMA over-the-air protocol.
