The present embodiments provide apparatuses, methods and systems for use
in notifying a remote communication device when a local wireless device
loses its wireless link. In some embodiments, a method detects when a
wireless connection is lost with a first communication device, identifies
a second communication device that is communicating with the first
device, and notifies the second device of the lost link. In some
implementations, the notification of the lost link is supplied while the
method provides batch communications. Some embodiments provide voice
communications, where a remote device is notified when a local device
loses its wireless connection. The second device can be determined by
querying a server. The notifying can include forwarding an in-band tone,
and/or generating a real time protocol packet. In some embodiments, the
loss of the link is detected through a radio access network, a packet
control function, and/or a mobile switching center.
