摘要:
A system to enable TTY communication between a legacy TTY phone and an IP phone over a packet network using a TTY relay protocol established between the IP phone and a media gateway at a central office of the PSTN. The system may also use a voice over Internet Protocol gateway to connect a personal computer to the packet network instead of an IP phone to accomplish TTY communication between software on the computer and a legacy TTY phone.
摘要:
A system and method for transmitting voice data traffic over a wireless medium, such as a voice call using a wireless Internet Protocol mobile phone on a wireless local area network, to increase the quality and the number of voice calls on a Basic Service Set. Endpoints are capable of dynamically switching to alternate voice coding profiles. The WLAN is surveyed by a wireless endpoint to determine whether a congested network condition exists. Coding profiles may be dynamically switched to decrease the congested conditions and improve call quality. If dynamically switching of profiles in not available then the wireless endpoint gracefully degrades the transmission by periodically dropping packets until network congestion reduces and/or call quality increases.

A system and method are provided for improving the throughput of wireless networks, such as IEEE 802.11 networks. Individual devices in the network determine the level of activity on the network. In the event that the network is active, the devices increase throughput by skipping the pending packet transmission and appending its data payload to a future packet transmission. By encoding multiple payloads in a single packet transmission, packet overhead is reduced and MAC layer delays are eliminated. The data payloads are subsequently split back into individual packets for transmission over the wired portion of the network.

Disclosed above are various embodiments of VoIP communication systems that utilize low cost IP phones that rely on a centralized VoIP controller for much of the processing. Reducing the processing taking place on an IP phone may reduce the number of components that need to be on the IP phone which may result in a less expensive IP phone in terms of both cost and power. When the IP phone is embodied as a WIPP, the reduced processing may also result in more efficient communication between the WIPP and an AP. The increased communication efficiency may result in less power being used by the WIPP and effectively extend the battery life. Since a number of redundant components have been centralized, the VoIP system as a whole may be less costly. Also, centralized control may provide greater functionality and versatility in the setup and configuration of a VoIP communication system.

One embodiment of the present invention includes a method for synchronizing packet production and receipt from a digital signal processor (DSP) with polled transmission opportunities in an IEEE 802.11e network. The method comprises producing a packet via the DSP and transmitting the packet from the DSP to a transmission device at a time that is substantially synchronized with a next polled transmission opportunity granted by an access point in an IEEE 802.11(e) network. The method also comprises time stamping the arrival of the packet at the transmission device and transmitting the packet from the transmission device.
摘要:
Determining the reasons for packet loss in a wireless local area network; such as an IEEE 802.11 network. The method uses the strength of received signals at a wireless station, such as the received signal strength indicator (RSSI), noise levels (e.g, non-802.11 energy in the 2.4 GHz frequency range), and packet loss information together to determine the network status. In most implementations, the 802.11 implementation (e.g., the 802.11 driver) is responsible for maintaining statistics on the RSSI and the noise whereas the measure of the packet loss is the responsibility of the application. The network status is determined by the endpoint station independent from the access point

摘要:
An unconnected power save method reduces the battery consumption of a wireless station in a wireless local area network (WLAN). A wireless station enters a sleep mode between scans for a prospective access point. The sleep duration time is determined using the current position of the station relative to the WLAN network topology.
摘要:
Providing interoperability on a voice communication network by detecting incompatible bit packing payload formats of ADPCM encoded voice data signals in an encoder/decoder. A mismatch of bit packing formats between little endian format and big endian format is determined through the use of a media gateway control protocol package called Real Time Protocol that allows a Call Agent to detect the presence of garbled audio and allows an intelligent gateway to detect the payload format being used by remote endpoints during call setup procedures and then switch the gateway's encoding for the payload to the payload format being used by the remote endpoint. The invention may be applied to an ITU G.726 encoder/decoder.
