摘要:
The conference device (EMCU) according to the invention has several monaural HRTF filters (HRTF1, . . . , HRTFN), each of which is to be allocated to a conference participant. The abbreviation HRTF stands for “Head Related Transfer Function”. A corresponding HRTF filter (HRTF1, . . . , HRTFN) is used for filtering a monaural audio signal coming from the conference participant to whom it is allocated. An individual, monaural HRTF filter coefficient set is responsible in this case for defining the filter characteristics of a particular HRTF filter. The conference device (EMCU) also has a conference mixing device (MP) coupled to the HRTF filters (HRTF1, . . . , HRTFN), for mixing the individually filtered audio signals from various conference participants and for transferring the mixed audio signals to conference participants.

The invention relates to a method and a device for which, for determining a routing-metric for a mesh-network, in particular according to standard IEEE 802.11s, routing messages sent in wireless mesh networks or mobile ad-hoc-networks, on various paths of source nodes, via the mesh nodes of the mesh networks to the target nodes, are evaluated in order to determine the best path for transferring data packets from source nodes to target nodes. Said nodes are battery-operated and mesh nodes are only used in the energy-saving mode as intermediate nodes of a path when this can not be prevented due to necessary connectivity in the mesh network or due to predetermined guidelines. Also, in each routing message sent from source nodes to target nodes via various paths, a plurality of bits, preferably two bits, are used for the number of mesh nodes operating in the path in the energy-saving mode or are battery-operated when the remaining bits of the routing-message are used for the path metric.

The invention relates to a method for the vector quantization of a feature vector, in particular with respect to a data compression of a signal to be transmitted or to be stored, particularly a voice signal or a video signal, wherein at least one codebook from a plurality of codebook vectors is searched for a code vector representing the feature vector. During the search, a sequence of codebook vectors is examined for the suitability thereof to represent the feature vector. In the course of the search for the code vector, a set of neighboring vectors is dedicated to at least one of the codebook vectors potentially to be examined, preferably prior to the search. The search for the code vector includes at least part of the neighboring vectors.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for transmitting a notification of a shutdown event includes a communication terminal turning off or otherwise shutting down and prior to turning off sending a notification to a third party device such as an access point, base station, server, or proxy, that identifies information relating to the shutting down of the terminal such as a location, purpose for the shutdown and other relevant information. Subsequent devices that attempt to establish a communication connection with the terminal may then receive the notification or information from the notification via the third party device. The sending of information relating to the notification or the notification by the third party can also trigger another action. One example of such an action is the forwarding of the communication connection request to another device to receive that request based upon a predefined rule or a predefined forwarding address.

The invention is characterized in that a user profile for a program-controlled device is updated on a regular basis. The program is updated in accordance with said user profile. One advantage of the invention lies in the fact that peak loads of communication networks caused by the simultaneous transmission of program updates are avoided.

The invention relates to a method for operating a mesh network, especially according to IEEE standard 802.11s, wherein the mesh network comprises a plurality of network nodes, which have outer edge nodes and inner network nodes. A first edge node forms a connection point for external first stations disjunctive to the network, and a second edge node forms a connection point for external second stations disjunctive to the network, wherein data packets are to be exchanged between the first and second stations. During a switch of an external station from one edge node to another edge node, especially from a coverage area of the first edge node to a coverage area of the second network node, the respective association information of the network nodes is updated by means of an association message while inserting a validity duration for the association of the external stations connected to the edge nodes. The invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method for operating a mesh network.

The invention relates to a method for providing communication, comprising a plurality of communication subscribers, comprising at least one first piece of address information associated with a first communication subscriber, a second and at least one third piece of address information associated with at least a second communication subscriber and a fourth piece of address information associated with a central control function, wherein in the event of a failure of a first connection attempt made to a second communication subscriber by a communication subscriber determined by the first piece of address information while using the second piece of address information, during a second attempt at a connection following the failure by the first communication subscriber determined by the first piece of address information to the central control function determined by the fourth piece of address information, the control function initiates the forwarding of the second connection to the second communication subscriber while using the third piece of address information. The invention further relates to a communication system for carrying out the method.

One network protocol (RTP) each, having data packets (dp) comprising an expandable header (KE) is provided for a data stream (ds1 . . . n) encoded in a manner individual to said data stream, and the key information (si1 . . . n) formed in a data stream manner individual to said data stream is inserted into an expandable header (RTPH) of a data packet (dp) of the respective data stream (ds1 . . . n) and transmitted. The key information (sp1 . . . n) is selected in a manner individual to said data stream from the expanded headers (KE) of received data packets (dp) of the respective data stream (ds1 . . . n), and the associated encoded data stream (ds1 . . . n) is decoded by means of at least one piece of selected data stream individual key information (si1 . . . n). The forming and inserting of key information (si1 . . . n) into standard expanded headers (KE) can be performed with little additional expense, thus significantly reducing the expenditure for the analysis or diagnosis of the simultaneously transmitted encoded data streams (ds1 . . . n). Advantageously, the insertion of key information (si1 . . . n) can be activated or initiated only if the diagnosis or analysis and/or the recording of the data streams is currently being performed.

The invention relates to a method for deblocking filtering a macroblock (M1) on the basis of a coding standard for image information which is stored in macroblocks (M1, M2) which are arranged adjacent to one another horizontally in macroblock rows and adjacent to one another vertically in macroblock columns, wherein each macroblock (M1, M2) is formed from blocks (B) which are arranged adjacent to one another horizontally in block rows M and adjacent to one another vertically in block columns n and form block elements Mmn, where m=1 to 4 and n=1 to 4, of a first matrix M, wherein the blocks (B) have vertical edges (14, 15) and horizontal edges (18, 19), which each provide external boundaries for the blocks (B), and, starting with the block element MII, the vertical edges (14, 15) and the horizontal edges (18, 19) of the blocks (B) of a macroblock (M1, M2) are filtered, in which a context region (K1) comprising the blocks (B) of a first macroblock (M1) to be filtered is stipulated which is formed from blocks (B) which are arranged adjacent to one another horizontally in block rows o and adjacent to one another vertically in block columns p and form block elements Kop, where o=1 to 7 and p=1 to 7, of a second matrix K, wherein the block elements K1-S, where r=3 to 6 and s=3 to 6, correspond to the block elements Mmn, where m=1 to 4 and n=1 to 4, of the first matrix M. Next, the vertical edges (1, 3) and horizontal edges (2, 10) of the blocks (B) of the context region (K1) are filtered, starting with the block element KII of the second matrix K, on the basis of the coding standard for image information.
