Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A method (300) and apparatus (200) provide for determining when a digital packet data signal and a voice signal are being concomitantly transmitted on a voice channel of a communication system. A sample of the transmitted signal (110) is compared (310) to a pre-transmitted sample of the digital packet data signal (108). In response to the comparison a digital packet data transceiver hops (314-320) from the first voice channel to a different voice channel for transmitting the digital packet data signal when voice signals are present.

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 8, 1996 and granted December 21, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended February 8, 2016.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 8, 2018.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
