Abstract
A group communications switching method is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: maintaining a voice call between a first subscriber terminal and a second subscriber terminal when it becomes necessary to perform group communications while the voice call is in progress; starting a group communications call by the first subscriber terminal so as to call at least a group communications member other than the first subscriber terminal and the second subscriber terminal; and disconnecting the voice call between the first subscriber terminal and the second subscriber terminal when the group communications call is established.
