    • An enhanced communication bridge includes a context interface that enables the audio bridge to learn information about the type of Voice encoder, device, network connection, location, type of call (business vs. personal), identity and position of the individual, and other information about the context of the communication session itself as well as the context of each person joining the communication session. This context information is used to determine how quality of experience targets for the communication as a whole, as well as how each individual contribution should be uniquely processed to attempt to meet the quality of experience targets. Business factors may influence the decision as to the type of processing to be implemented on each of the signals provided by the participants. Corrective action may also be implemented by the bridge on the client network devices as well in the embodiment. The bridge may be centralized or distributed. A video bridge may be implemented as well.

    • Communication apparatus having interfaces for exchanging data with first and second neighbors, a memory for storing codec information regarding the communication apparatus and a control entity operative to detect a message from the first neighbor, the first message being indicative of codec information regarding an originating entity. In response, the control entity assesses compatibility between the codec information regarding the originating entity and the codec information regarding the communication apparatus. If the assessment is positive, the control entity self-identifies the communication apparatus as a candidate for terminally supporting a subsequent codec-bypass negotiation with the originating entity. If the assessment is negative, the control entity self-identifies the communication apparatus as a candidate for non-terminally supporting such negotiation. The invention thus capitalizes on the realization that although an end-to-end codec-bypass connection may not be possible, it may nevertheless be possible to achieve bandwidth savings by establishing a codec-bypass connection along only a portion of the path.

    • A conference bridge adapter for processing data carried on a media path between, on the one hand, a conference bridge operative to communicate composite packets carrying media information and auxiliary information pertaining to the media information and, on the other hand, an endpoint characterized by an inability to exchange composite packets with the conference bridge. In one direction, a stream of composite packets is received from the bridge. An output media stream without auxiliary information is generated from the media information in each received composite packet. In the opposite direction, a stream of packets carrying only media information is received from the endpoint. Auxiliary information is derived from the media information and a stream of composite packets is generated by combining the media information and the auxiliary information. Thus, a media conference can be established between seemingly incompatible network elements.

    • A signal processor for effecting the conversion of an audio data signal from one format to another. The signal processor has a signal converter that can selectively acquire two operative modes, namely a first operative mode and a second operative mode. In the first operative mode, the signal converter transforms the audio data signal from one format to another and releases the converted audio data signal from the output of the signal processor. In the second operative mode, the signal converter is disabled and permits passage of the audio data signal to the output without conversion. The signal processor has a control unit for controlling the transition of the signal converter between operative modes. The control unit enables the signal converter to pass from the first operative mode to the second operative mode when at least one operating condition has been satisfied. The control unit reacts to a link impairment occurring on the data communication channel to alter the operating condition to be satisfied to enable passage from the first operative mode to the second operative mode. In a specific example of implementation, the modification to the operating condition can be such as to “tighten” the requirements to be met for switching from the first to the second operative mode.
    • 用于实现将音频数据信号从一种格式转换成另一格式的信号处理器。 信号处理器具有可以选择性地获取两种操作模式的信号转换器,即第一操作模式和第二操作模式。 在第一操作模式中,信号转换器将音频数据信号从一种格式转换成另一格式,并从信号处理器的输出释放经转换的音频数据信号。 在第二操作模式中,信号转换器被禁用并允许音频数据信号通过输出而不进行转换。 信号处理器具有用于在操作模式之间控制信号转换器的转换的控制单元。 当满足至少一个操作条件时,控制单元使得信号转换器能够从第一操作模式传递到第二操作模式。 控制单元对数据通信通道发生的链路损害作出反应,以改变要满足的操作条件以使得能够从第一操作模式通过到第二操作模式。 在实现的具体实例中,对操作条件的修改可以是“收紧”从第一操作模式切换到第二操作模式要满足的要求。

    • In methods and apparatus for computing measures of echo of a far end signal in a near end signal, the evolution over time of frequency spectra of the near end and far end signals are compared to compute a measure of the echo. A far end spectrum of the far end signal and a near end spectrum of the near end signal are determined for each of a plurality of successive time intervals. A respective measure of correlation is determined for each of a plurality of spectrum pairs, each spectrum pair comprising a respective near end spectrum and a respective far end spectrum, the far end spectrum corresponding to a time interval which lags a time interval corresponding to the near end spectrum by a respective time lag. The measures of correlation are compared to determine a maximum measure of correlation which can be used as a measure of echo. The echo measure computation technique is particularly suitable for use in echo suppressors for digital cellular telephony systems, but has other applications.
