摘要:
Computers that exchange data over communication networks frequently wait for responses to messages and therefor use timers to control the amount of time that the computer will wait for a response to a command issued over a network. Communication network responsiveness varies as traffic loading on the network changes. Fixed-value timers that don't take network loading into account can inadvertently terminate communications if a response is not timely received. Varying or adjusting data communication timers according to data network responsiveness can prevent erroneous data communication session termination.

Echo cancellation can be enabled to cancel echoes on an outbound transmission path based on original signals on an inbound transmission path. A controller of echo canceler enablement monitors digitized control information contained in call origination messages associated with the establishment of communications. A determination of the type of digitized information to be carried by a two-way communication channel is made. The controller causes the echo canceler to be enabled or disabled on a per-call basis based on the type of digitized information. A stand-alone echo canceler provides automatic enablement/disablement on a per-call basis based on the type of digitized information to be carried on a communication channel as determined by monitoring associated control messages.
摘要:
A method of setting up calls over circuit-switched and packet-switched resources on a single network having the steps of receiving a request from a user for a call having one or more resources, and allocating the one or more resources among packet-switched, resources and circuit-switched resources associated with a communication network to set up the call. The call may be a multi-media call. Resources may be allocated based on one or more call characteristics that may be in a request for resources by the user.
