Patent ID: 7546125

Claim:
A method for performing a handoff for a mobile device from a first radio station to a second radio station, the method comprising: buffering a first media data set, the first media data set being received through the first radio station; if a second media data set is received through the second radio station, cross-correlating a tail portion of the first media data set and a head portion of the second media data set to generate a cross-correlated media data set and outputting the correlated media data set; if no media data is received through the second radio station within a threshold, synthesizing a synthesized media data set and outputting the synthesized media data set, the threshold including at least one of a time threshold and a data amount threshold, the synthesizing including using a modeled portion of the first media data set; and if no media data is received through the second radio station at the threshold, extending at least a portion of the first media data set to generate an extended media data set and outputting the extended media data set.
