An improved system and procedure for allowing participants within a group conversation on a wireless communication network (10) to at least temporarily break away from a group conversation (90) and hold a side bar conversation. The side bar conversation (100) may comprise several different types, including a public conversation or may constitute a private conversation or private text messaging or data exchange. A group conversation user wishing to hold the side bar conversation uses his user interface to alert other group conversation user(s) with whom he would like to hold the side bar conversation. Either the initiating user or the recipient user(s) can recommend the type of side bar conversation to be had using their user interfaces (51). If the side bar conversation is a voice conversation, the original group conversation can still be audible in the back ground, but can be reduced in volume relative to the side bar conversation or squelched in and out when the side bar conversation is active.

L'invention concerne un système et un procédé améliorés permettant aux participants d'une conversation de groupe sur un réseau (10) de communication sans fil de se retirer au moins temporairement d'une conversation (90) de groupe pour établir une conversation séparée. La conversation séparée (100) peut être de plusieurs types différents, y compris une conversation publique ou une conversation privée ou un échange de messages texte ou de données privé. Un participant de la conversation de groupe désirant établir une conversation séparée utilise son interface utilisateur pour avertir le ou les autres participants de la conversation de groupe avec qui il souhaiterait établir une conversation séparée. Le participant ayant eu l'initiative ou les participants destinataires peuvent suggérer quel type de conversation séparée établir au moyen de leur interface utilisateur (51). Si la conversation séparée est une conversation vocale, la conversation de groupe originale peut rester audible en bruit de fond, mais son volume peut être réduit rapport à la conversation séparée, ou coupée lorsque la conversation séparée est active.
