いものとなる。 On the other hand, the transmitting/receiving determination method of the transmitting/receiving determining circuit 7 compares the transmitting level and the receiving level, and determines whether there is an input of a transmitting audio signal higher than a certain transmitting level and the level of the transmitting audio signal is higher than that of the receiving audio signal. There is a method of determining that the transmitting state is reached when the value is higher than the level. In the design of this conference audio control circuit, the amount of sound reproduced by the speaker 4 that is picked up by the microphone 3 (amount of acoustic coupling)
is below a certain value. For this reason, a loudspeaker telephone or the like is constructed such that the microphone 3 and speaker 4 are housed in one casing so that the amount of acoustic coupling does not change significantly. However, in video-based services such as video conferencing, the most natural method is to reproduce the received audio signal at a monitor position where the image of the other party is visible. On the other hand, the position of the microphone is the position for participating in the conference. For this reason, the positional relationship between the microphone 3 and the speaker 4 cannot be fixed depending on the arrangement of the room in which the device is placed, how it is used, etc., so the amount of acoustic coupling described above changes significantly. In addition, in such usage where the microphone and speaker are separated, the amount of acoustic coupling is influenced by the acoustic conditions (especially sound absorption characteristics) of the room. Therefore, if the conditions are bad and the amount of acoustic coupling increases, the conference audio control circuit, which is based on a certain amount of acoustic coupling, will pick up the sound reproduced from the speaker at a higher level at the microphone, causing the sound to be in the receiving state. , is determined to be in the transmitting state. As a result, unnecessary loss is inserted into the receiving system, causing phenomena in which the received audio is interrupted or becomes louder or softer, making it extremely difficult to hear.

Reference numeral 7 is a flip-flop that is set by the push detection signal delayed by the delay circuit 15 and reset by the preset end signal, and outputs a changeover switch control signal that changes the contacts of the changeover switches 10 and 11 to the b side for the period from set to reset. . 18 is an electronic volume, 19 is an electronic volume control circuit, and 20 is a microphone sensitivity adjustment volume.

できる。 The electronic volume control circuit 19 is the press detection circuit 14
The electronic volume 1 is set by the press detection signal which is the output of
It is preset to generate a control voltage that minimizes the amount of attenuation of 8, and is preset to generate a control voltage that minimizes the amount of attenuation of 8, and a certain amount of signal is input every time there is input of a reception loss insertion instruction signal outputted from transmission/reception judgment circuit 7 inputted via changeover switch 11. In this step, a control voltage is generated to increase the amount of attenuation of the electronic volume 18, and this state is maintained when no reception loss insertion instruction signal is input. Such a circuit can be easily realized by using a presettable down-counter and a D/A converter.

The circuit prevents the output of the preset end detection signal when the reception loss insertion instruction signal is output, and outputs the preset end detection signal after a certain period of time after the reception loss insertion instruction signal stops again,
This can be easily realized using a retriggerable multivibrator and an edge detection circuit.

子ボリウム制御回路19の出力状態は変化せず、
従つて電子ボリウム18は減衰量最小の状態に設
定され最大の音量でスピーカより受信音声が再生
される状態にセツトされる。 This circuit performs the following operations when executing preset. That is, when executing a preset, the preset start button 13 is first pressed.
When the press detection circuit 14 detects that the preset start button has been pressed, it presets the electronic volume control circuit 19 using a press detection signal outputted, and controls the electronic volume 18 so that the amount of attenuation is minimized. The above-mentioned press detection signal is sent to the delay circuit 15.
After being delayed for a certain period of time, the contacts of the changeover switches 10 and 11 are both switched to the b side by the output of the flip-flop, so that the low frequency signal output from the low frequency signal generator 12 is transferred to the receive loss insertion circuit 9 and the electronic The signal passes through the volume 18 and speaker amplifier 6 and is reproduced by the speaker 4. At this time, the volume reproduced from the speaker 4 will be the maximum volume, but if the amount of acoustic coupling between the speaker 4 and the microphone 3 is sufficiently small, the level of the sound output from the speaker 4 going around to the microphone 3 will be small. Transmission/reception determination circuit 7
remains in listening state. Therefore, the reception loss insertion instruction signal is not output, so the preset end detection circuit 16 outputs the preset end signal after a certain period of time has elapsed after the input of the delayed press detection signal, and the flip-flop 17 is thereby reset. Therefore, the contacts of the changeover switches 10 and 11 are a
Return to the side and exit the preset. In this case,
Since no reception loss insertion instruction signal is output, the output state of the electronic volume control circuit 19 does not change.
Therefore, the electronic volume 18 is set to the minimum amount of attenuation, and the received audio is set to be reproduced from the speaker at the maximum volume.

ボリウム18の減衰量を増加させてゆく。 Next, the acoustic environment is poor, with speaker 4 and microphone 3
As the amount of acoustic coupling increases, the volume input to the microphone 3 increases, causing the transmitting/receiving determination circuit 7 to misidentify the transmitting state. When this misidentification occurs, a reception loss insertion signal is output, so the control voltage output from the electronic volume control circuit 19 is changed to the electronic volume 18.
At the same time, the preset end detection circuit 16 postpones the output of the preset end signal. In this state, the reception loss insertion circuit 9 inserts a loss into the reception system, so the playback volume from the speaker 4 decreases, the input volume to the microphone 3 decreases, and the transmission/reception detection circuit 7 returns to the reception state determination state. The playback volume from the speaker 4 becomes louder. However, since the amount of attenuation of the electronic volume 18 has increased by a certain amount, the playback volume has decreased by that amount. If the input volume to the microphone 3 at this time is low enough to prevent the transmitting/receiving judgment circuit 7 from mistakenly recognizing it as a transmitting state, the preset end detection circuit activates the preset end detection circuit after a certain period of time after the receiving state is established in order to maintain the receiving state. 16 outputs a preset end signal, the flip-flop 17 is reset, and the contacts of the switching switches 10 and 11 return to the side a, thus completing the preset. However, even in this state, if the input volume to the microphone 3 is still excessive and the transmitting/receiving determination circuit 7 mistakenly recognizes that the transmitting state is in the transmitting/receiving state, the above-mentioned operation is repeated, and the transmitting/receiving determining circuit 7 correctly maintains the receiving state. The amount of attenuation of the electronic volume 18 is increased until the desired playback volume is reached.
本回路は以上のような動作をするので装置の設
置された部屋の音響環境において再生可能な最大
の音量に受話音声レベルの音量をセツトすること
が可能であり、装置設置時の音声系の設定が非常
に簡単におこない得るという利点がある。 Since this circuit operates as described above, it is possible to set the volume of the incoming audio level to the maximum volume that can be reproduced in the acoustic environment of the room where the device is installed, and the audio system settings at the time of device installation. has the advantage of being very easy to perform.

ことが可能である。 In the above explanation, only the reduction in the volume of the reproduction from the speaker 3 has been explained, but in order to prevent the transmission/reception determination circuit 7 from misrecognizing the call, the sensitivity of the microphone 3 may be equivalently reduced. However, lowering the microphone sensitivity will equivalently increase the transmission detection level.
The device will not enter the transmit mode unless you speak loudly.
As the microphone sensitivity is lowered, unpleasant situations such as truncated speech frequently occur. However, if the playback volume becomes too low, it becomes necessary to lower the microphone sensitivity and increase the playback volume. In this case, it is possible to set the optimum microphone sensitivity and playback volume by slightly reducing the amount of attenuation of the microphone sensitivity adjustment volume 20 shown in FIG. 2 and executing the above-mentioned preset again.

る。 In FIG. 2, the electronic volume 18 is used as a playback volume adjustment volume, and the changeover switch is used as a test switch. It is also possible to have a simple configuration in which the volumes 18 and 20 are manually adjusted by removing the . Furthermore, it is also possible to eliminate the changeover switch 10 and the low frequency signal generator 12 and to adjust the volumes 18 and 20 by inputting a low frequency signal or an actual audio signal from the audio receiving terminal 2.
