Patent EP-0824295-A3 (EP)
Inventor: BOWATER RONALD JOHN
IPC: H04M7/00
Filed: 1997-07-24
Abstract: The present invention relates to establishing a communication
channel between two communication systems having computer telephony
integration (CTI). Many CTI systems are configured into incoming and
outgoing lines according to the anticipated demands. Consequently, if
sufficient outgoing or incoming capacity is unavailable at a given time
to support a communication channel of required characteristics, the users
of such a system must conventionally wait until sufficient capacity
becomes available. However, the present invention determines who the
intended addressee is and can instruct the CTI system associated with
that addressee to instigate the establishment of a communication channel
to the user who originally desired the connection. The instructions can
be sent to the intended addressee using for example, another
communication network, such as the Internet or other data communications
network. This arrangement also allows the call to be placed in the
reverse direction, where this is favourable for tariff reasons. The
invention also includes the automatic selection of a telephone network
carrier based on tarrif data requested over a data network such as the
Internet.

Abstract: The present invention is to prevent execution of a detour
route search by the received VICS data where certain
conditions are not met. To this end, a necessary time RT1
as taken for a land vehicle to move from its present
location to arrive at a first forward point is calculated
whereat the vehicle is expected to turn to the right or
left along a route under guidance (step SB12). On the
other hand, a time CT required to conduct a route re-search
based oh VICS data is calculated (step SB14). By comparing
the necessary time RT1 with time CT to determine which one
is greater than the other (step SB16), if TR1 ≥ CT then a
route re-search based on VICS data is performed (step
SB18). However, if RT1 < CT then execution of the route
re-search is eliminated.

Abstract: A signal-processing method and system for a telecommunications
switch (10) that supports a number of individually addressable telephones
(14, 16 and 18) including transmitting ring signals to telephones that
are determined to be in an inadvertent off-hook condition. The telecommunications
switch is configured to transmit a first notification ring signal (64)
upon detecting that a particular telecommunications line (20, 22 and 24) is in
a condition that indicates that the associated telephone is in the inadvertent
off-hook condition. The first ring signal induces a ring condition that
preferably is uniquely identifiable as indicating that the phone has been left
off-hook. A second notification ring signal (70) is transmitted if the phone is
returned to the on-hook condition and an incoming call is directed to the
telephone. Preferably, the second ring signal induces a uniquely identifiable
ring condition indicating that an incoming call is directed to an off-hook
telephone. Optionally, a third off-hook notification signal may be transmitted
to the phone to generate an audible alert by means of a speaker (44) in the
earpiece of the telephone.

Abstract: Provided is a dynamic bit allocation apparatus and
method for audio coding which can be used widely for almost all
digital audio compression systems and besides implemented
simply with low cost. The bit allocation apparatus and method
perform a very efficient bit allocation process, paying
attention to a psychoacoustics behavior of the human audio
characteristics with a simplified simultaneous masking model.
In this process, peak energies of units in frequency divisional
bands are computed, and a masking effect that is a minimum audio
limit with the use of a simplified simultaneous masking effect
model is computed and set as an absolute threshold for each unit.
Then, a signal-to-mask ratio of each unit is computed, and then,
based on this, an efficient dynamic bit allocation is performed.
