A main terminal and a method of operating the same. In this method of operating the main terminal, the main terminal is connected to a telephone network so as to communicate with the telephone network, and selectively connects an external terminal to the telephone network. To perform the method, first, if it is requested that the telephone network be disconnected from the external terminal and instead be connected to the main terminal, an internal current to flow into the main terminal is obtained from a loop voltage generated when the external terminal is in connection with the telephone network. Next, the internal current is applied to the main terminal. Thereafter, the telephone network is disconnected from the external terminal and instead connected to the main terminal. While the internal current is flowing in the main terminal, the main terminal maintains the loop voltage generated when the external terminal is in connection with the telephone network. Accordingly, the telephone network can be disconnected from an external terminal and instead be connected to the main terminal without generating an interrupt. Thus, an exchanger included in the telephone network can be prevented from malfunctioning due to the generation of the interrupt.

An audible signal associated with an event is provided as part of the audio path of a telephone. In particular, a telephone according to one embodiment of the invention includes a microphone adapted to receive audible signals from a user and to convert the audible signals to electrical signals for transmission to a distant party, and a speaker adapted to receive electrical signals associated with input from the distant party and to convert the electrical signals to audible signals. According to the invention the telephone also includes a processor adapted to produce electrical signals associated with an external event, and to integrate these electrical signals with the received electrical signals. In an alternative embodiment according to the invention, a method of alerting a party to a telephone conversation of an external event includes the step of providing an indication of the external event to the party from a speaker of the telephone during the telephone conversation. The external event can be a time of day, for example, and the indication can be a distinctive chime or an announcement of the time.

A two-wire four-wire converting circuit for converting a two-wire system of the two-way communication input/output terminal to a four-wire system of the output terminal and the input terminal so as to further improve the canceled amount of feedback. The canceled amount is further improved by combining a canceling circuit for canceling the feedback with the same amplitude and opposite phase with a compressor and a decompressor.
摘要:
A cellular telephone (200) is interconnected to a host assembly (202-204) via a cable (206). The cable (206) contains both appropriate interdisciplinary connections for attachment to the telephone (200) at one end and to the host assembly (202-204) at the other end via a universal connector (254). The identity of the particular cellular telephone (200) can be provided to the host assembly (202-204) by a number of different protocols including the downloading of function-related parameters to the host assembly that are unique to the particular telephone. Accordingly the host assembly can function with any one of a variety of cellular telephones having differently configured cable connections. In one embodiment, a pocket adapter (202) holds the cellular telephone (200) and includes the universal connector (254).
