20080208573 | Speech Signal Coding - The present invention relates to methods and apparatuses for speech signal encoding and decoding. In accordance with the invention, a discrete time speech signal is encoded by identifying a speech element in the speech signal. If the speech element is identified for the first time, the encoder ( | 08-28-2008 |
20080317230 | Method and System to Use Feature Profiles Call-by-Call in Telecommunication Call Handling - A method allowing a subscriber to use call handling features on a call by call basis defines a plurality of feature profiles, each including a number of call handling features. The method stores the feature profiles either in a customer premises equipment or in a related switch, and activates one of the feature profiles by selecting one of the feature profiles and applying the call handling features in the feature profile to the calls as long as the feature profile is activated. | 12-25-2008 |
20100166167 | Method and Apparatus for Managing Subscriber Profile Information - A method and an apparatus are provided for managing subscriber profile information. The method provides a database containing a global subscriber profile, wherein the global subscriber profile includes the subscriber profile information. A network element serving a subscriber terminal requests information from the global subscriber profile associated with a subscriber identity presented by the subscriber terminal. The method then determines if all global subscriber profile information required for performing a function of the network element is compatible with the network element and transforms incompatible information into information compatible with the network element. | 07-01-2010 |
20110103565 | System and method for service resolution - Providing service resolution between a calling subscriber and a called subscriber of a telecommunications network, wherein a call of a calling subscriber device of the calling subscriber includes content for at least a first capability and a second capability and called subscriber device is capable of only a subset of the first and second capabilities. The calling subscriber device requests a call with the first and second capabilities. The called subscriber device broadcasts a signal to at least one peripheral device and requests a response from devices that are capable of the subset capability. A peripheral device responds that it has the requested subset capability. The called subscriber device splits the media received and sends the media corresponding to the requested subset capability to the peripheral device for processing. | 05-05-2011 |
20140204174 | Content Security for a Mobile Communication Terminal - A method for outputting sensitive data to a user includes a communication terminal checking to determine whether at least a portion of the sensitive data is to be outputted by determining whether the communication terminal is in one of a plurality of predefined communication configurations for outputting the sensitive data. If the communication terminal is found to be a first configuration, the communication terminal transmits the sensitive data so that at least one of the video data and the audio data is output to the user via at least one peripheral device connected to the communication terminal. If the communication terminal is in a second configuration, the communication terminal performs at least one security action to help further protect the sensitive data. | 07-24-2014 |
20140307859 | Apparatus and Method for Audio Data Processing - A communication terminal, system and method utilize a communication device that activates a speech to text application so that subsequent audio that is received from a caller is converted into text. A caller may then provide audio in response to a question. A caller may send input by pressing a button on a communication device for example, to activate the speech to text application, speak an answer, and then press a button to indicate that an answer to a question is complete. The spoken answer may be converted into text and may then be stored, parsed, and then assigned to an object representing the question posed to a caller. The stored text assigned to the object representing the question may then be used to populate different forms or databases for subsequent use or for displaying to a user via a display device of that person's computer device. | 10-16-2014 |

20140379343 | METHOD, DEVICE, AND SYSTEM FOR AUDIO DATA PROCESSING - A method and apparatus that filters audio data received from a speaking person that includes a specific filter for that speaker. The audio characteristics of the speaker's voice may be collected and the specific filter may be formed to reduce noise while also enhancing voice quality. For instance, if a speaker's voice does not contain specific frequencies, then a filter may cancel the noise at such frequencies to ease noise cancellation and reduce processing sound spectrum for cleaning that is not needed. Additionally, the strength frequencies of a speaker's voice may be identified from the collected audio characteristics and those spectrums can be filtered with finer granularity to provide a speaker specific filter that enhances the voice quality of the speaker's voice data that is transmitted or output by a communication device. The audio data may also be output based upon a user's predefined hearing spectrum. | 12-25-2014 |
