System, method, and device for providing communications using a distributed mobile architecture
A method of providing telephone communication is disclosed and includes allowing a group call between four or more participants. Each participant calls from a separate telephone device that communicates with a base transceiver station that is coupled to a distributed mobile architecture server. The method also includes providing full duplex calling capability between all participants via one or more of the distributed mobile architecture servers. One or more participants can disconnect from the group call without effecting other participants remaining on the group call. Further, one or more added participants can connect to the group call.

wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server is in direct physical connection with a first wireless transceiver; and
a second distributed mobile architecture server, comprising:
a second computer readable medium;
a second mobile switching center module embedded in the second computer readable medium;
a second base station controller module embedded in the second computer readable medium;
a second call detail record (CDR) generation program embedded in the second computer readable medium; and
a program to allow a group call among four or more mobile communication devices, wherein the program is embedded in the second computer readable medium,
wherein the second distributed mobile architecture server is in direct physical connection with a second wireless transceiver;
wherein telephony traffic received at the first wireless transceiver of the first distributed mobile architecture server is transmitted from the first distributed mobile architecture server to the second distributed mobile architecture server via a peer-to-peer connection.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein telephony traffic received at the first wireless transceiver of the first distributed mobile architecture server is transmitted from the first distributed mobile architecture server to the second distributed mobile architecture server via the peer-to-peer connection while the first distributed mobile architecture server moves from a first location to a second location.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein telephony traffic received at the first wireless transceiver of the first distributed mobile architecture server is transmitted from the first distributed mobile architecture server to the second distributed mobile architecture server via the peer-to-peer connection while the second distributed mobile architecture server moves from a third location to a fourth location.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises:
a first home location register embedded in the first computer readable medium; and
a first visitor location register embedded in the first computer readable medium.
5. The system of claim 4 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises:
a first operations, administration, maintenance, and provisioning (OAMP) module embedded in the first computer readable medium,
a first authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) module embedded in the first computer readable medium;
a first packet data server node (PDSN) gateway embedded in the first computer readable medium; and
a first gateway general packet radio service (GPRS) support node (GGSN) embedded in the first computer readable medium.
6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second distributed mobile architecture server further comprises:
a second home location register embedded in the second computer readable medium; and
a second visitor location register embedded in the second computer readable medium.
7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the second distributed mobile architecture server further comprises:
a second operations, administration, maintenance, and provisioning (OAMP) module embedded in the second computer readable medium;
a second authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA) module embedded in the second computer readable medium;
a second packet data server node (PDSN) gateway embedded in the second computer readable medium; and
a second gateway general packet radio service (GPRS) support node (GGSN) embedded in the second computer readable medium.
8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server is located in a city area, and wherein the second distributed mobile architecture server is located in an urban fringe area.
9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server includes administrative information corresponding to one or more wireless telephone device subscribers.
10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises a first gateway to a public switched telephone network.
11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises a first media gateway.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises a first Internet phone gateway.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises a first signaling system seven (SS7) gateway.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises a first Session Initiation Protocol gateway.
15. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first base station controller module embedded in the first computer readable medium of the first distributed mobile architecture server comprises a first cellular radio network controller.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the first base station controller module embedded in the first computer readable medium of the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises a first cellular selection/distribution unit.
17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the first base station controller module embedded in the first computer readable medium of the first distributed mobile architecture server further comprises a first call protocol controller.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the first call protocol controller communicates with the first wireless transceiver of the first distributed mobile architecture server.
