Abstract
Methods and apparatus for prioritizing voice call requests during data communication sessions involving a mobile communication device are disclosed. In one illustrative example, an end user invokes a voice call request though a user interface of the mobile device. If this request is made while the mobile device is engaged in a connected data communication service, the mobile device immediately forces the connected data service into a dormant state. In particular, a release order is transmitted to tear down a traffic channel of the connected data service so that the voice call request can be processed. Subsequently, a voice call with the mobile device is established using a new traffic channel. When the voice call is completed, data communications will resume if needed. Advantageously, the mobile device prioritizes voice calls over data communication sessions which may be deemed less time-critical.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the method is performed by one or more servers in a wireless communication network within which the mobile communication device operates.
5. The method of claim 1, wherein the act of causing the traffic channel to be torn down comprises the further act of causing a release order to be transmitted.
6. The method of claim 1, wherein the act of causing the traffic channel to be torn down causes the connected data communication service to enter into a dormant state.
7. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
wherein the act of causing the traffic channel to be torn down causes the connected data communication service to enter into a dormant state; and maintaining the data communication service in the dormant state during the voice call.
wherein the act of causing the traffic channel to be torn down causes the connected data communication service to enter into a dormant state; and maintaining the data communication service in the dormant state during the voice call.
8. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
after completion of the voice call, resuming data communications of the data communication service.
