Abstract

A wireless communication device capable to transmit and receive TTY/TDD characters. The wireless communication device includes a receiver and a transmitter to allow for a full duplex communication. The receiver is responsive to the reception of a data frame including a TTY/TDD silence message to switch to lower data rate operative state where the receiver expects to receive and process data frames at a lower data rate. At the same time the receiver causes the transmitter to switch to a lower data rate operative state and also to return to the remote site with which the wireless communication device communicates a TTY/TDD silence message. The purpose of this TTY/TDD silence message is to set the receiver at the remote site at the lower data rate operative state.
