Abstract:

A communication system for establishing a transparent communication link between a first transceiver and a second transceiver. The communication system in concert with the first transceiver captures and formulates a dedicated communication code intended to represent the second transceiver. Transparent to the user of the first transceiver, the computer system evaluates the communication code and determines whether to transmit the communication code to the Local Exchange Carrier or establish a communication link with an Intelligent Switch, a component of the computer system. When the communication link is established between the computer system and the Intelligent Switch, the Intelligent Switch transmits a communication data packet to the computer system. The communication data packet may, if desired, contain communication transaction rate information, advertisement, or other selected data. The advertisement is displayed to the user of the first transceiver while the computer system maintains a connection to the Intelligent Switch via the Local Exchange Carrier.
