A mobile wireless terminal is provided. The mobile wireless terminal includes a wireless unit, an audio codec, and a processor unit. The wireless unit is configured to connect to a wireless relay to make a voice communication with a phone network via the wireless relay, which is coupled between the mobile wireless terminal and the phone network. The audio codec is configured to process the voice communication. Further, the processor unit is coupled to the wireless unit and is configured to obtain a phone number from a user for an outgoing call to an external party in the phone network, and to connect to the wireless relay over a short-range wireless link. When the connection to the wireless relay is successful, the processor unit is configured to establish a signaling connection on an asynchronous connection-oriented logical (ACL) transport channel, and a voice connection on a synchronous connection oriented (SCO) channel between the mobile wireless terminal and the wireless relay. Further, the processor unit is configured to send the dialed outgoing call to the wireless relay via the signaling connection, and to communicate with the external party via the wireless relay over the voice connection.

Short-range wireless mobile terminal method and system

A mobile wireless terminal includes a first wireless unit, a second wireless unit, an audio codec, and a processor unit. The first wireless unit is configured to connect to a wireless relay coupled between the mobile wireless terminal and a phone network over a short-range wireless link. The second wireless unit is configured to connect to a cellular network over a long-range wireless link. The audio codec is configured to process the voice communication. Further, the processor unit is coupled to the first wireless unit and the second wireless unit, and is configured to make a voice communication using the second wireless unit with an external party via the cellular network over the long-range wireless link. The processor unit is also configured to register with the wireless relay to establish the short-range wireless link and, when the registration is successful, to switch from the second wireless unit to the first wireless unit to carry the voice communication with a phone network via the wireless relay.

A wireless communication system is provided. The wireless communication system includes a wireless relay and a mobile terminal. The wireless relay is coupled to a phone network. The mobile terminal is physically coupled to the wireless relay to make a voice communication with the phone network via the wireless relay. Further, the mobile terminal and the wireless relay exchange control data and voice data corresponding to the voice communication over a short-range wireless link based on one of a transparent mode and a translation mode. A signaling connection is established on an asynchronous connection-oriented logical (ACL) transport channel between the mobile terminal and the wireless relay for exchanging the control data, and a voice connection is established on a synchronous connection oriented (SCO) channel between the mobile terminal and the wireless relay for exchanging the voice data.

Coupled short-range wireless mobile terminal and relay

A wireless relay apparatus is provided. The wireless relay apparatus includes a telephone module configured to couple with a public switched telephone network (PSTN) to receive a telephone call, and a wireless module coupled to the telephone module to process the telephone call and configured to wirelessly connect to a mobile terminal such that the telephone call is forwarded to the mobile terminal over a short-range wireless link. Further, the wireless module is configured to operate in one of a transparent mode and a translation mode so as to exchange voice data with the mobile terminal.
