Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Adapters ( 10 ) for use with portable electronic communications devices ( 12 ) such as cellular phones, smart phones, and personal digital assistants can facilitate use of the devices ( 12 ) in half-duplex communications modes such as push to talk (PTT) and land portable radio (LMR). The adapters ( 10 ) can include a case ( 18 ) configured to receive the communications device ( 12 ), and a button or key ( 40 ) mounted on the case. The key ( 40 ) communicates with the communications device ( 12 ) when the communications device ( 12 ) is disposed in the case ( 18 ), and is operable to generate on a selective basis an input corresponding to a transmit command that causes the communications device ( 10 ) to transmit. The adapters ( 10 ) can also include a speaker module and a microphone that communicate with the communications device ( 10 ) via a connector ( 28 ) on the case ( 18 ), or wireless transceivers ( 41 a, 41 b ).
