How it works.
The Core Mobility Push-to-Talk (PTT) client is an integrated solution, not a download or add-on. So it functions like an integral part of the handset's software—because it is. Core Mobility works with handset OEMs to ensure that PTT functions seamlessly and reliably.
Core Mobility's PTT client features minimized call setup latency. The client uses outbound buffering and advanced setup routines to enhance the PTT experience, resulting in the lowest latency and fastest time-to-talk possible on CDMA 1X networks. With Core Mobility's PTT client, users can begin speaking as little as 1.5 seconds after initiating a PTT call.
When in a PTT call, the speed at which the "floor" can be awarded has a huge impact on the perception of application responsiveness. Here again, the Core Mobility PTT client offers a measurable advantage. Floor control is now virtually instantaneous for all participants in a PTT call, improving call flow and making conversations more natural and less frustrating for users.
