Abstract:

An emergency radio communication system utilizes radios with headset, headphones, earphones and/or custom audio interfaces for a minimum of two audio channels. Each radio receives multiple channel/frequency communications and spatially locates the received communications at predetermined “ear” locations comprising left earphone, right earphone, and both earphones (right and left) according to the source of the received communications. In one specific example, a first fire department communications may be fed into the left earphone at a 100% level and a second fire department communications or air support communications may be fed into the right earphone at a 100% level. Control and command communications may be fed into both the left and right earphones at equal levels. Thus, in this example, the user spatially hears communications from the first fire department to the left, communications from the second fire department to the right, and communications from air support from the center.
