Abstract

The present disclosure provides a method and system for managing mission critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) communication. The method includes receiving, by a floor control server, a first floor request message, from a primary floor participant, while a floor is granted to a secondary floor participant and a first media transmission is performed by the secondary floor participant; in response to receiving the first floor request message, transmitting, by the floor control server, to the secondary floor participant, a first floor revoke message for stopping the first media transmission of the secondary floor participant, and transmitting, by the floor control server, a first floor grant message to the primary floor participant; and transmitting, by the floor control server, a first floor taken message to the secondary floor participant, wherein the first floor taken message includes information of the primary floor participant granted the floor.

Claims (33)

1. A method for managing mission critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) communication, the method comprising:

receiving, by a floor control server, a first floor request message, from a primary floor participant, while a floor is granted to a secondary floor participant and a first media transmission is performed by the secondary floor participant;

in response to receiving the first floor request message, transmitting, by the floor control server, to the secondary floor participant, a first floor revoke message for stopping the first media transmission of the secondary floor participant, and transmitting, by the floor control server, a first floor grant message to the primary floor participant; and

transmitting, by the floor control server, a first floor taken message to the secondary floor participant, wherein the first floor taken message includes information of the primary floor participant granted the floor.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the floor control server, second media from the primary floor participant; and

transmitting the second media to the secondary floor participant.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving, by the floor control server, a second floor request message from the secondary floor participant, while the floor is granted to the primary floor participant and a second media transmission is performed by the primary floor participant;

in response to receiving the second floor request message, transmitting, by the floor control server, to the primary floor participant, a second floor revoke message for stopping the second media transmission of the primary floor participant, and transmitting, by the floor control server, a second floor grant message to the secondary floor participant.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising transmitting, by the floor control server, a second floor taken message to the primary floor participant,

wherein the second floor taken message includes information of the secondary floor participant granted the floor.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

receiving, by the floor control server, third media from the secondary floor participant; and

transmitting the third media to the primary floor participant.

6. A floor control server for managing mission critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) communication, the floor control server comprising:

a transceiver; and

at least one processor configured to control the transceiver to:

receive, from a primary floor participant, a floor request message while a floor is granted to the secondary floor participant and a first media transmission is performed by the secondary floor participant,

in response to receiving the first floor request message, transmit, to the secondary floor participant, a first floor revoke message for stopping the first media transmission of the secondary floor participant, and transmit a first floor grant message to the primary floor participant, and

transmit a first floor taken message to the secondary floor participant,

wherein the first floor taken message includes information of the primary floor participant granted the floor.

7. The floor control server of claim 6 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to:

receive second media from the primary floor participant, and

transmit the second media to the secondary floor participant.

8. The floor control server of claim 6 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

control the transceiver to receive a second floor request message from the secondary floor participant while the floor is granted to the primary floor participant and a second media transmission is performed by the primary floor participant, and

in response to receiving the second floor request message, control the transceiver to transmit, to the primary floor participant, a second floor revoke message for stopping the second media transmission of the primary floor participant and transmit a second floor grant message to the secondary floor participant.

9. The floor control server of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to transmit a second floor taken message to the primary floor participant, and

wherein the second floor taken message includes information of the secondary floor participant granted the floor.

10. The floor control server of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the transceiver to:

receive third media from the secondary floor participant, and

transmit the third media to the primary floor participant.
