Abstract
A system and method for communicating control signals between a digital mobile transceiver, a digital control head, and a mobile data terminal over a common serial peripheral bus uses a message protocol and architecture which is efficient and yet provides great versatility and functionality without adding undue complexity. As mobile data terminals are becoming increasing important in digital trunked repeater systems, the efficiency provided by the signalling protocol disclosed herein (which is optimized for mobile data terminal messages) is a very important advantage.
