Method and system for realising one-number multiple-terminal service

Method and system for realising one-number multiple-terminal service

Invention discloses, in particular, a method comprising the following steps: a calling terminal calls a called terminal in a first network; if the called terminal is a one-number multiple-terminal service subscriber and the called number is a main number, the first network triggers the call service in an intelligent service platform; the intelligent service platform obtains, from the first network, a temporary local directory number (TLDN) of the called terminal corresponding to the main number, stores the TLDN and sends a service control indication to the first network; the first network routes the call to a next generation network according to the service control indication from the platform; the next generation network triggers the call service in the platform; and the platform returns the TLDN of the called terminal corresponding to the main number and all other terminal numbers bound to the main number to the next generation network to connect the called terminals.

Car automatic loudspeaker device and method of transmitting data

Car automatic loudspeaker device and method of transmitting data

Car navigation device (1) with a loudspeaker function establishes a Bluetooth connection with a cellular telephone (10). Upon receiving from the cellular telephone (10) outgoing call history data and incoming call history data that were stored on the cellular telephone (10) before setting up the Bluetooth connection, the car navigation device (1) stores in working memory (6) the received outgoing call history data and the received incoming call history data the same as outgoing call history data and incoming call history data of the car navigation device (1) itself. When making an outgoing call using outgoing call history data and incoming call history data stored in working memory (6), a display device displays its own outgoing call history data along with data stored in working memory.

Methods and systems for csi-rs transmission in lte-advance systems

Methods and systems for csi-rs transmission in lte-advance systems

Method of allocating resource elements in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system for transmission of a channel state information reference signal (CSI-RS) is disclosed. The method includes converting resource elements to a two-dimensional frequency-time domain. The converted resource elements can then be partitioned to units of a physical resource block (PRB), which can be one subframe, for example. It can be determined whether a portion of a PRB is being used by another signal; and if the portion of the PRB is not being used, it can be allocated for transmission of the CSI-RS. The CSI-RS can be transmitted at resource element locations determined by the resource elements available to the CSI-RS, for example, in a regular or a frequency-division duplexing (FDD) downlink subframe. The CSI-RS can be transmitted in a downlink subframe configured as a multi-media broadcast over a single frequency network (MBSFN) or a non-MBSFN subframe.

Method and apparatus for providing audible, visual or tactile sidetone feedback notification to user of communication device with multiple microphones

Method and apparatus for providing audible, visual or tactile sidetone feedback notification to user of communication device with multiple microphones

Communication device includes multiple microphones and a sidetone feedback notification module for producing a notification signal, which is connected to the microphones. The notification signal is based on a combination of input audio signals from the microphones and the sidetone feedback notification module generates a notification signal before separating the speech signal from the non-speech signal. Furthermore, the communication device includes a notification device which provides a feedback signal to the user based on the notification signal, which is connected to the sidetone feedback notification module. The feedback signal provided to the user based on the notification signal can be an audio, visual or tactile signal.

Data processing method and device and communication system having said device

Data processing method and device and communication system having said device

In the method of processing data in a digital subscriber line during the "training" phase of the subscriber equipment, a central station reports on transmission power to the subscriber equipment; the central station transmits data to the subscriber equipment with transmission power less than the reported transmission power on at least one frequency; the subscriber equipment determines the signal-to-noise ratio based on the transmitted data.

Electronic device with physical alert

Electronic device with physical alert

Electronic device includes an actuation element configured to alter its profile relative to a housing in response to a device event. Altering the actuation element profile may include externally extending or changing the form factor of the actuation element. Device events, for example when the electronic device is a radiotelephone, may include receipt of an incoming message. When such an event occurs, the actuation element profile of a call activation key is altered. In response to the actuation element profile being altered, a user is alerted on the incoming message, while maintaining the control status associated with the actuation element so that the control status before and after altering the actuation element profile is the same.
