摘要:
In one embodiment, a method includes electronically detecting a gesture of a user listening to a speaker via a communication device, and generating an audible and/or visual response that corresponds to the gesture. The audible and/or visual response is then communicated to the speaker. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure.
摘要:
A mobile communication terminal having a function of displaying a communication state and a method thereof are disclosed. The method of displaying a communication state in a case of a multiparty call using a mobile communication terminal having a plurality of display units (100,200) includes displaying information on one calling party on a first display unit (100), and displaying information on the other calling party on a second display unit (200). Here, information on one calling party and information on another calling party can be switched with each other and displayed on the different display units (100,200), and therefore voice communication is possible between one or more of the parties at the same time.

A client for a text-based messaging application for a dual-mode mobile communication device may initiate an audio conference based on a text-based message. Contents of fields of the text-based message may be extracted and utilized to construct an audio conference request message that is subsequently transmitted to an audio conference gateway. Where the text-based messaging application is an instant messaging (IM) client application, it may be configured to recognize a voice connection as being related to an ongoing Data Mode IM conversation. As a consequence of the recognition, the IM client application may maintain the user interface for facilitating participation in the Voice Mode IM conversation. Updates related to the status of the Voice Mode IM conversation may be received at the dual-mode mobile communication device over the voice connection and reflected in changes to the user interface.

A call bridging device sets up a three way call between the device and two telephones. The call is initiated by the call bridging device in response to a signal transmitted from a first telephone, such that the charges for the call are made to the telephone account associated with the call bridging device, instead of the telephone account associated with the first telephone.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for establishing a PoC connection (Push to talk over Cellular) from a terminal device with a touch-screen display to the terminal device of a receiving target. The identifier of the receiving target is selected from among the identifiers saved in the memory of the transmitting terminal device. In the method according to the invention, the identifiers of the targets are shown on the touch-screen display of the terminal device. The user selects from the identifiers shown on the display the one to which he/she wants to establish a connection. After this, the user opens a PoC connection to the receiving terminal device by touching the selected identifier with a pointing means, such as a stylus. Preferably, only the identifiers of the targets which use a terminal device supporting the PoC service are shown on the touch-screen of the terminal device. The PoC connection can be opened to one terminal device or to a group of terminal devices. The group of the receiving terminal devices is formed by indicating the identifiers belonging to the group from the identifiers shown on the touch-screen display. The group is preferably formed by drawing on the touch-screen display with the pointing means a closed circle, which encircles the identifiers belonging to the group. A common visual marking is attached to the identifiers belonging to the group, whereby the marking becomes a part of the group identifier. The visual marking is preferably a common background colour. The method according to the invention is implemented by an application program loaded in the memory of the terminal device.
摘要:
A method (100) or system (600) of controlling audible alerts includes detecting (102) a communication event among participant devices (204 and 206), detecting (104) a non-participant device (208, 210 or 212) within a predetermined range of a participant device, and sending (106) a wireless control signal by at least one among the participant devices to the nonparticipant device to control audible alert functions. The wireless control signal can be sent (108) after a start of the communication event and can be sent (110) for example using Bluetooth signaling, signaling using an IEEE 802.11 standard, or any other signaling. The method can mute (112) audible alerts on the non-participant device in response to receipt of the wireless control signal.
摘要:
An apparatus or endpoint device is disclosed for providing the capability to simultaneously manage multiple conference calls, move participants in the conference calls from one conference call to another and subdivide or join multiple conference calls together, and the like, wherein the apparatus or endpoint device provides a multi-conferencing capability that enables one or more teleconferencing participants to manage multiple teleconferences simultaneously. Each participant in the teleconference call manages their respective teleconference through their apparatus or endpoint device at their specific location by using it to adjust the teleconferencing topology, i.e., who should form what part of each specific teleconference call.

摘要:
The invention concerns a method of initiating a telecommunication (5) between a caller (1) and a callee (2) while the caller (1) is already engaged in a telecommunication (6) with a third party (3), and a terminal and a computer program product to execute this method. The callee (2) is invited to the telecommunication (5) with the caller (1) and caller status information is sent to the callee (2). The caller status information is related to the caller's (1) telecommunication (6) with the third party (3). Data associated with the caller status information are indicated to the callee (2). It is determined if the callee (2) accepts or rejects the invitation after the indication. If the callee (2) accepts the invitation, the telecommunication (5) between the caller (1) and the callee (2) is established.
