Abstract
A method and system for generating real-time announcements in a digital packet-switched telecommunications network includes an announcement server for sensing a predetermined trigger event and generating a predetermined announcement for insertion into a data stream. A packet-based network then transmits the packetized announcement along with the current data stream for receipt by the destination. The announcement is then processed by the appropriate processing device, such as a Base Station Controller or a wireless handset, immediately upon receipt of the packetized announcement so that it can be generated in real-time.
