Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H  G | IPC G  H

Claim 0:
1. An apparatus for the configuration of a wireless radio connection comprising:
at least one audio data input or sound transducer;
an audio processing unit which receives an audio signal from the audio data input or sound transducer;
an audio analyzer which analyzes the previous audio signal received from the audio data input or sound transducer, then predicts upcoming time periods in which a transmission error or a transmission gap can be well concealed and outputs a control signal which indicates the predicted upcoming time periods; and
a transmitting unit which transmits an audio signal received from the audio processing unit to at least one receiving device and switches over between various transmitting frequencies or between various receiving devices;
wherein the transmitting unit receives the control signal of the audio analyzer and wherein switching over of the transmitting unit between various transmitting frequencies or various receiving devices is controlled in dependence on the control signal such that it is effected during the predicted upcoming time periods of the audio signal;
wherein the predicted upcoming time periods are upcoming pauses;
wherein the audio signal has a latency of at most 10 ms from the audio input or sound transducer to transmission by the transmitting unit;
wherein the upcoming pauses are longer than 50 ms,
wherein the audio analyzer statistically evaluates the previous audio signal to predict the length of the upcoming pauses,
wherein the control signal indicates the pauses only when they are of an expected remaining minimum length.
