摘要： A high layer protocol organizes Unidirectional Streaming Services (USS) data into frames and said data is transmitted to the wireless user's terminal. The USS data is not delivered until a criteria is satisfied, e.g., the receive buffer is filled to an appropriate value. After the USS data is received, the receiver verifies the received frames. If an error is detected a message is sent from the wireless terminal to the server (providing the unidirectional streaming service) requesting retransmission of the corrupted frame. This is a form of ARQ protocol. If the retransmitted frame arrives prior to the time that frame needs to be delivered, the corrupted frame is replaced by the retransmitted frame. Otherwise, if the retransmitted frame is not received prior to the time that frame needs to be delivered, the corrupted frame is reconstructed. Any retransmitted frame which arrives too late is discarded. An additional benefit of the present invention is that since the frames are buffered prior to delivery, interpolation, as opposed to extrapolation, can be used to improve the reconstruction quality of the corrupted frame. This optional feature of the invention uses both the preceding and succeeding frames, which are available in the buffer, to provide a better estimate of the corrupted frame.
摘要翻译：高层协议将单向流服务（USS）数据组织成帧，所述数据被传送到无线用户的终端。在满足标准之前USS数据不被传送，例如，接收缓冲器被填充到适当的值。在接收到USS数据之后，接收机验证接收到的帧。如果检测到错误，则从无线终端向服务器（提供单向流服务）发送请求重发已损坏帧的消息。这是一种ARQ协议的形式。如果重传的帧在需要传送帧的时间之前到达，则被重新发送的帧被替换。否则，如果在需要传送帧的时间之前没有接收到重传的帧，则重建损坏的帧。任何到达太晚的重发帧被丢弃。本发明的另外的好处在于，由于帧在传送之前被缓冲，所以与外推相反的内插可以用于改善损坏的帧的重建质量。本发明的该可选特征使用在缓冲器中可用的前一帧和后续帧来提供对损坏帧的更好估计。

摘要： 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.

摘要： This invention relates to a method and an apparatus for processing digital audio signals that may reduce the signal degradation occurring when the signal is exchanged between two communication terminals equipped with vocoders in a communication network. The solution proposed by this invention is to provide a communication terminal with a vocoder including a decoder section provided with a plurality of decoding units. A switch activates a selected one of the decoding units in dependence of the format of the compressed audio signal data frames received from a remote communication terminal. This system allows the communication terminal to support a number of different speech compression formals. In order to achieve simplicity and low cost, the communication terminal is provided with a single encoding unit. This results in an asymmetric arrangement where the communication terminal has a large number of decoding units than encoding units. The great majority of the speech compression algorithms deployed in wireless and Internet telephony standards have the property that their speech decoders are of far less computational complexity than their respective speech encoder. Therefore, a low-cost terminal can be produced which supports a low complexity speech encoder unit and a variety of speech decoder units.

摘要： A conference bridge is provided for managing a conference between media signal sources generating media data packets conveying encoded media information and encoding type information. The media signal sources, in order to enter a conference, generate link messages including respective supported encoding types and transmit the link messages to the conference bridge. The conference bridge receives the link messages and processes them to derive a first common encoding type supported all media signal sources in the conference and a second encoding type supported a subset of media signal sources in the conference. The conference bridge generates link message reply signals conveying the first encoding type and the second encoding type the subset of media signal sources and conveying at least the first encoding type to the media signal sources other than the subset of all media signal sources. Each media signal source is responsive to the link message reply signal to render active at least the first encoding type and selectively render active the second encoding type.

摘要： In recent years, the telecommunications industry has witnessed the proliferation of a variety of digital vocoders in order to meet bandwidth demands of different wireline and wireless communication systems. The rapid growth in the diversity of networks and the number of users of such networks is increasing the number of instances where two vocoders are placed in tandem to serve a single connection. Such arrangements of low bit-rate codecs can degrade the quality of the transmitted speech. To overcome this problem the invention provides a novel method and an apparatus for transmitting digitized voice signals in the wireless communications environment. The apparatus is capable of converting a compressed speech signal from one format to another format via an intermediate common format, thus avoiding the necessity to successively de-compress voice data to a PCM type digitization and then recompress the voice data.
摘要翻译：近年来，电讯业目睹了各种数字声码器的扩散，以满足不同有线和无线通讯系统的带宽需求。网络的多样性的快速增长和这种网络的用户数量正在增加两个声码器串联放置以服务于单个连接的情况的数量。低比特率编解码器的这种布置可能会降低发送语音的质量。为了克服这个问题，本发明提供了一种用于在无线通信环境中发送数字化语音信号的新颖方法和装置。该装置能够通过中间公共格式将压缩的语音信号从一种格式转换成另一格式，从而避免必须将语音数据连续解压缩到PCM型数字化，然后再重新压缩语音数据。
