Short data is transmitted during a call hang time hold off period in a wireless communication system. During an active call on a voice channel, a radio controller detects deactivation of a push-to-talk (PTT) input at a transmitting mobile station (MS) via an uplink channel portion of the voice channel and identifies a particular MS in the wireless communication system in need to transmit short data. Responsively, the radio controller causes a call hang time hold off request to be transmitted via a downlink channel portion of the voice channel to all MSs in the active call instructing the mobile stations to delay call hang time during a call hang time hold off period. The radio controller then causes a short data transmission request to be sent to the particular MS instructing the particular MS to transmit inbound short data during the call hang time hold off period.

Method, device, and system for transmitting short data during a call hang time hold off period

Disclosed is a two-way radio frequency (RF) communications system including a first device that receives, from a first subscriber unit, a virtual radio conferencing call (VRC) request identifying a plurality of other subscriber units to be partied to the VRC call and a conference time period during which to conduct the VRC call. The device reserves RF resources at one or more corresponding radio sites associated with the subscriber units partied to the VRC call for the conference time period. At a beginning of the conference time period, the device causes a virtual radio conference call start message to be transmitted to the subscriber units partied to the call instructing the subscriber units to join the VRC call via the reserved RF resources at their respective radio sites.
