20090016328 | METHOD FOR SCHEDULING VoIP TRAFFIC FLOWS - The present invention relates to a method for scheduling a data transmission to a user equipment in a communication system comprising at least one radio network controller (RNC) governing a number of base stations, wherein the communication system supports data transmission from a base station to an user equipment on a high speed packet access (HSPA) bearer or a dedicated channel (DHC) or on similar bearers in a CDMA2000 system. The method comprises the steps of: identifying at least one predetermined scheduling condition for data transmissions for the user equipment; determining at least one current scheduling conditions of the user equipment; comparing the predetermined scheduling conditions of the user equipment with the current conditions of the user equipment; selecting a bearer for the data transmissions during a session from a base station based on the comparison; and using the selected data bearer during the data transmission session or until a new data bearer has been selected. Furthermore, the invention relates to a user equipment, a radio network controller, a computer readable medium and mobile communication system for data transmissions such as VoIP service transmissions in wireless communications systems | 01-15-2009 |
20090177465 | METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR SPEECH CODING IN WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS - The present invention relates to speech coding in wireless and wireline communication systems. The present invention provides a method of saving bandwidth by a controlled dropping of speech frames at an encoder in a sending communication device. The dropping is controlled in a manner to minimize the effects on the speech quality after the decoding in the receiving communication device, by assuring that the state mismatch between the encoder and the decoder is removed or at least significantly reduced. This is achieved by letting the encoder run an ECU algorithm with a similar behavior as the one running in the decoder in the receiving communication device. | 07-09-2009 |
20090245272 | METHOD AND ARRANGEMENT FOR IMPROVING MEDIA TRANSMISSION QUALITY USING ROBUST REPRESENTATION OF MEDIA FRAMES - In a method of improved media frame transmission in a communication network. Initially a plurality of “original” or regular media frames are provided for transmission. According to the invention, robust representations of the provided regular media frames are generated and stored locally. Subsequently, one or more of the regular media frames is/are transmitted. The invention detects an indication of a loss of a transmitted media frame, and the idea is to transmit, in response to a detected frame loss, a stored robust representation of the lost media frame and/or a stored robust representation of a subsequent, not yet transmitted, media frame to increase the media quality. | 10-01-2009 |
20100014477 | Method and Apparatus for Discriminating Between Control Messages and Speech Payload - A base station detects the transition of a mobile station from a DTX mode to a continuous transmission mode. The base station schedules an uplink transmission by the mobile station during an uplink transmission period while the mobile station is in DTX mode and receives an uplink LLC PDU from said mobile station during the scheduled uplink transmission periods. The base station determines the operating mode of the mobile station based on the size of the received uplink LLC PDU. | 01-21-2010 |
20100017509 | HANDLING ANNOUNCEMENT MEDIA IN A COMMUNICATION NETWORK ENVIRONMENT - In order to efficiently handle the switch between user media and announcement media, a basic step is to first determine a configuration of the user media. Next, a configuration of the announcement media to be presented is determined based on the determined user media configuration. Subsequently, the announcement media is configured according to the announcement media configuration, and the configured announcement media is finally sent to the intended user. In this way, the overall appearance or sound of the announcement will be virtually the same as or at least similar to the overall appearance or sound of the user media, preferably without distortions. This allows the user to perceive the announcement as clearly as possible. | 01-21-2010 |
20100080328 | RECEIVER ACTIONS AND IMPLEMENTATIONS FOR EFFICIENT MEDIA HANDLING - A receiver includes a detector for detecting a change in source of incoming media during an on-going communication session, and means to provide a reset signal in order to reset decoder states of a decoder in response to such a detected change before decoding new incoming media. In this way, a state mismatch can be avoided without the need for several active decoder instances in the receiver, leading to substantial savings with respect to overall complexity, memory usage and power consumption. This also means that media distortions can be eliminated or at least reduced when the decoded media is finally rendered by a player. | 04-01-2010 |
20100232297 | Method And Arrangement For Adapting Transmission Of Encoded Media - The present invention is to select an adaptation scheme for the transmission of the encoded media that results in a satisfactory performance of the transmitted encoded media. A difference from the prior art is that each adaptation scheme defines a set of different transmission formats, wherein each transmission formats is a combination of at least two of the parameters the source codec bit rate, the packet rate, the number of frames of each packet (referred to as frame aggregation), and the level of redundancy. By using the different transmission formats, the transmission can be adapted to different operating scenarios and the performance is hence improved. | 09-16-2010 |

20120120813 | Monitoring of Delay in Packet-Switched Networks - A method is proposed for determining the round-trip delay for sending multimedia data, such as voice or video data, between a first network node and a second network node over a communications network, where data is encapsulated in data units comprising at least one frame of encoded data. The method includes the steps of: said first network node sending a request for reconfiguration of the data unit structure to the second node; the first node detecting a reconfiguration response from the second node, where the reconfiguration response comprises at least one data unit of data having a structure that corresponds to the request for reconfiguration. The first node then measures the time elapsed between sending the reconfiguration request and detecting the reconfiguration response and determines a value for roundtrip delay using said measured time. In accordance with a first embodiment, the request for reconfiguration is a request to change the encoding mode of the multimedia data. A node adapted to measure this round-trip delay is also proposed. | 05-17-2012 |
