CPC classification number: H04W76/14 ,  H04W76/15

Abstract: A method of communicating includes receiving, at a first headset, at least one input from a user. The at least one input is indicative of a request for voice communication with at least one second headset. The method further includes generating, via the first headset, a voice communication channel between the first headset and the at least one second headset upon receiving the at least one input. The method further includes generating, through the voice communication channel, a voice communication session between the first headset and the at least one second headset. The voice communication session allows voice communication between the first headset and the at least one second headset in a full-duplex communication mode.

Abstract: In some examples, a system includes a plurality of articles of personal protected equipment (PPE) that are each assigned to a particular worker. The system may also include a data hub that detects an input that initiates a broadcast of diagnostic self-check messages; identifies, in response to the input, each article of PPE of the plurality of articles of PPE; broadcasts, based on identifying each article of PPE, the diagnostic self-check messages to the respective articles of PPE, wherein each article of PPE receives its respective self-check message at its communication component; in response to receiving a set of diagnostic acknowledgement messages from one or more of the plurality of articles of PPE that have performed a diagnostic self-check, determines whether the set of diagnostic acknowledge messages satisfy one or more self-check criteria; and performs one or more operations based on whether the self-check criteria are satisfied.
