    摘要: Type 2 caller ID/call waiting (CIDCW) customer premises equipment (CPE) is provided which has a greatly improved method of detecting tones indicating the availability of call information regarding an incoming call while the customer premises equipment is in an off-hook condition. A hybrid echo canceler (HEC) algorithm is added to the customer premises equipment (CPE) to suppress the signal from the microphone of the customer premises equipment from being included in the signal analyzed for the presence of tones. Thus, the microphone of the customer premises equipment need not be muted upon detection of the alerting CAS tone sequence in a Caller ID service. The HEC algorithm runs substantially continuously in a preferred embodiment, and may be combined with a conventionally operating HEC which cancels reflections due to the hybrid or telephone line interface.

    摘要: An adjunct Type II caller ID/call waiting (CIDCW) receiver unit is provided which has a greatly improved ability to detect tones and other call related information on a telephone line from a central office while the customer premises equipment is in an off-hook condition. The inventive adjunct CIDCW receiver unit is placed in series between the telephone line from the central office and the customer premises equipment, rather than in parallel with the customer premises equipment as in conventional adjunct CIDCW receiver units. A second telephone line interface (TLI) is included in the adjunct CIDCW receiver unit for connection to the customer premises unit to simulate the impedance of the telephone line. The adjunct CIDCW receiver unit has the ability to disconnect, mute or suppress the microphone signal from the customer premises equipment from being included in the signal received by the call related information receiver portion of the adjunct CIDCW receiver unit.

    摘要: A variable voice compression device and method in a voice messaging system is provided. The device includes a call related information/coding table or database which contains associations between call related information regarding desired calling parties, and selected coding techniques and effective data rates resulting in varying voice compression ratios. Upon receipt of an incoming call, call related information sent from the central office is compared to entries in the call related information/coding table or database. If a match is found, the subsequent voice message is encoded with a coding technique and effective data rate determined from the matching entry in the call related information/coding table or database. Otherwise, the voice message is encoded with a default coding technique and effective data rate.

    摘要: According to one aspect of the invention, two lines are utilized to selectively forward calls based on caller ID data. Thus, according to one embodiment of the invention, a method of connecting a calling party to a called party includes the steps of a customer premise equipment (CPE) receiving an incoming call from the calling party on a first line, the CPE evaluating caller ID data associated with the incoming call, and the CPE placing an outgoing call to the called party on a second line based on the caller ID data. In another embodiment, a CPE includes a first line, a second line, and a calling unit adapted to place an outgoing call on the second line based on caller ID data associated with an incoming call received on the first line. In yet another embodiment, a method of forwarding a call includes the steps of receiving the call on a first line, selectively calling a forwarding number on a second line based on caller ID data associated with the received call, and coupling the first line to the second line.

    摘要: In one embodiment, an online credit or debit card transaction is processed by transmitting purchase information, including price of the purchase item and card number, to the company that issued the card. In addition, the location from which the purchase is made is calculated, e.g., using a GPS device, and the location data is transmitted to the card issuer. The card issuer determines if the purchase meets certain specified approval requirements, such as whether the card holder has sufficient funds, the card has been reported missing, or card holder's personal information is correct. Further, the card issuer compares the location data to a number of predetermined purchase locations specified by the customer. If the location data matches one of the predetermined locations and the specified approval requirements are met, then the purchase is approved.

    摘要: A technique and apparatus for efficiently and flexibly utilizing shared memory as a full duplex mailbox for both data and payload information. The invention allows payload messages of varying lengths to be passed in contiguous memory space, allowing an interrupt service routine (ISR) or other process to easily and quickly read or cache the passed payload data. In a disclosed embodiment, a processor-to-processor mailbox is formed using a shared memory (e.g., a dual port RAM). The shared memory is separated into three main portions: a processor 1 to processor 2 fixed portion, a processor 2 to processor 1 fixed portion, and an unallocated dynamic portion. Importantly, the other direction of the mailbox is located starting at the highest address of the shared memory, and works toward the lowest address of the shared memory. Preferably, write access for payload messages and other generally longer messages are dynamically allocated in the unallocated dynamic portion for use in either mailbox. For messages passed in mailbox 1, i.e., from processor 1 to processor 2, the memory in the unallocated dynamic portion is allocated in a lowest to highest address direction. Conversely, for messages passed in mailbox 2, i.e., from processor 2 to processor 1, the memory in the unallocated dynamic portion is allocated in a highest to lowest address direction.

    摘要: A method of transmitting digital data between a base unit and a handset of a cordless telephone includes the step of transmitting a frame including a speech data portion, and a non-speech data portion. In one particular example, the size of the speech data portion and the size of the non-speech data portion are variable. In an alternative embodiment, a cordless telephone includes a base unit, including a codec adapted to convert analog speech data from a far end party to digital samples, a variable encoder adapted to encode the digital samples, and a transceiver adapted to transmit and receive encoded digital samples. The cordless telephone also includes a handset, including a transceiver adapted to transmit and receive encoded digital samples, a controller adapted to act on non-speech data, and a transducer adapted to be responsive to speech data. According to this embodiment, the variable encoder is adapted to encode a speech data portion of a frame based upon a non-speech data portion of the frame. In another alternative embodiment, a frame structure for digital RF communications between a base unit and a handset of a cordless telephone includes a speech data portion, and a non-speech data portion. In one particular example a size of the speech data portion and a size of the non-speech data portion are variable.

    摘要: Apparatus and methods for adaptively, reliably, and accurately measuring the duration of an alerting or other signaling tone. A tone detector in accordance with the principles of the present invention accurately measures a duration of a tone burst (i.e., tone pulse) using a long frame length DFT and a short frame length DFT. Based on information obtained by the short frame length DFT, the long (i.e., standard) frame length DFT may be interrupted and reset to begin a new frame of data synchronized with the start of the next short frame corresponding to the processing by the short frame length DFT to minimize noise in the processing by the long frame length DFT and to greatly improve the resolution of the measurement of the duration of a particular tone to correspond to the lengths of the short frames used by the short frame length DFT. If desired, after a tone is initially detected, the frame length of the short frame length DFT can be iteratively reduced to increase a resolution of the measurement of a tone start time and a tone end time used to determine the duration of the detected tone burst.
