INTELLIGENT SPEECH CONTROL FOR TWO WAY RADIO

The present application provides various embodiments for a Bluetooth headset or other wearable communication device that pairs via a Bluetooth protocol with a two way radio (hardware or software), thereby enabling hands-free activation and deactivation of the paired two way radio. Intelligent speech control is enabled for the two way radio using a start phrase to trigger talk or transmit mode of the two way radio and an end phrase to trigger the receive or listen mode of the two way radio. Tones can be emitted when a mode is entered as feedback to the user as to which mode the two way radio has entered.
