A mobile communication device () contains a local wireless controller () for operating with a remote audio processor (). The remote audio processor is used for listening to and speaking with remote parties via the mobile communication device, and operates in a mode having a relatively long latency in communicating with the mobile communication device. Upon receiving a dispatch call (), a baseband processor () of the mobile communication device notifies an application processor () with a high priority dispatch notification (). The high priority dispatch notification causes an active link to be established between the mobile communication device and remote audio processor sooner than if were to occur with ordinary call processing.

Method and apparatus for establishing an audio link to a wireless earpiece in reduced time

A mobile communication device () in a communication system () initiates a call over the fixed equipment network of the communication system to another mobile communication device (). If the two mobile communication devices are within sufficient proximity to each other, they may switch to a direct mode of communication. (). The direct mode and network mode of communication are in different frequency bands using different air interface protocols.
