Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0069156A1] A communication system (100) and a method for operating the same are described to provide seamless, automatic routing of telephone calls over a public switched telephone network (PSTN 160), an internet protocol (IP) network (145), a public-wireless-network (150) and a private-wireless-network (120). In one embodiment, the system (100) comprises a plurality of gateway networks (105) coupled to the PSTN (160), IP network (145) and the public-wireless-network (150). The gateway networks (105) are configured to automatically select over which of the IP network (145), PSTN (160) or the public-wireless-network (150) to route the telephone call. Preferably, the gateway networks (105) are configured to reroute an in-progress telephone call over the IP network (145) over the PSTN (160) if a delay in transmission of date packets, losses in transmission of data packets, or jitter exceeds a specified maximum. More preferably, the gateway networks (105) are configured so that the routing of the telephone call is substantially transparent to the calling party and to the called party.
