VoIP allows individuals to use a network connection to transmit voice-encapsulated data packets over an available local communication line, such as the Internet. This is conveniently accomplished using an analog telephone adapter (ATA) that emulates certain functions of the telephone company's central exchange and connects to a network such as the Internet via a wired interface. In a VoIP system, an analog voice signal is usually picked up by a microphone and then sent to an audio processor in a personal computer. In computers, software or hardware codecs (CODECs) perform analog-to-digital conversion and compression. A number of studies have been devoted to speech compression schemes that are familiar to the skilled person. Telephone Voices The required nominal bandwidth is between 2.9 Kbps (RT24 by Voxware) and 13 Kbps (GSM Mobile Phone Standard). When placing the CODEC output into the packet, there must be a trade-off between bandwidth and latency 119402.doc 200818853. c〇DEC cannot operate continuously. Conversely, c〇dec samples the speech on the time period (called the "frame"). These frames are very similar to small data bursts. You can place a message box—or multiple frames—(10) a packet or package, and then wrap the packet payload in the packet header and end. This packet is responsible for at least 1P of 20-bit tuples and User Packet Protocol (UDP) octets. Layer 2 agreement even adds more please. Waiting longer to fill in the IP data reduces the overall burden, thus reducing the true bandwidth required to send the digitized speech. However, this wait will cause waiting time at the source, thus creating too much total waiting time for difficult sessions. The total network latency and jitter (changes in latency) have a degraded effect on voice quality. Therefore, in the absence of priority processing, it is difficult to maintain the instant words m on the wide-area packet network. · Convert the standard telephone voice signal into a compressed data packet, and then send the compressed data packet locally via the Ethernet' or The compressed capital (four) package is sent via the chat data network instead of the traditional electric circuit. The main difficulty of VgIP connectivity is that the communication network supporting the ν〇ΙΡ platform must be able to recognize that the ν〇ΙΡ datagram contains a voice signal and is “smart” to know that the communication network must move the data packet quickly. : Well, most VoIP voice traffic does not use the public Internet, but is performed on a private IP-based global network that delivers voice data to the smallest Quebec. Therefore, transmitting voice signals over a private data network provides some excellent advantages for the enterprise. For ISPs, merging voice and data on a single network allows ISPs to extend their simple information access services to voice, fax, and virtual road connections. For the enterprise 119402.doc 200818853 industry, the advantage is that long-distance services can save a lot of costs. The Internet is currently a free medium on many networks. If companies can send voice over a computer network, it is understandable that companies can make long-distance or international calls at the cost of local calls. E-commerce is also facilitated by allowing customer service personnel to answer phone questions using a data line while simultaneously processing customer orders online, reading the company's website, browsing the online information/product database, or sending e-mails. Similarly, ν〇ΙΡ also develops new possibilities for remote workers who can log in remotely using the cost of a local phone, take voicemail from their laptop pc, and make their emails and The network should maintain the license: perform multiple voice and data calls on one telephone line at the same time. Currently, this type of extended ν〇ΙΡ function is limited to users who can access a dedicated network based on ’, such as enterprise users rather than general home users. In fact, most home computer users are often limited by the blocked public Internet' and cannot effectively implement the v〇Ip standard. If the wait time and jitter are too high, or the latency and jitter are too high, an alternative option is in the interface buffer (7) 赃 (4). The large buffer can be filled irregularly 'but the buffer is emptied at a rate of -. This allows for good quality speech reproduction. This type of buffering technique is known as an audio string, which is a very practical method for recording voice or audio. Unfortunately, over-buffering of the audio signal causes a generally unacceptable single-party phone call, where – lose. Traditionally, the operating environment of a home with a read connection is not a knee-top type or a desktop-type general-purpose computer. The recording and transmission or interpretation of the ν〇Ιρ packet occurs in the audio system or data machine Dsp seen on a laptop or desktop. Because of the 119402.doc 200818853, the desktop system has a small advantage over the laptop, because the top-of-the-line stereo "traditionally provides a stereo ring (four) and a precise microphone so the 'desktop system can capture more accurately Personal voice, in order to retransmit these voice signals to the user connected to the other end. The power-software buffer and (4) structure help to improve the wheel, but even if the I-channel signal is accurately taken, the processor will be delayed, and The transmission latency associated with a desktop VoIP connection over the public Internet is likely to result in a barely audible (four) call. The main difficulty with using (iv) is that it is difficult to handle an emergency such as an emergency via a system that implements a VoIP connection. An emergency call for a 911 call. This is especially true when the V〇IP connection is initiated from a mobile or mobile device: Another difficulty reflected in the home system is that the ATA must be connected to the network access device via a wired connection, thus limiting the installation of the phone. The present invention solves the above and other problems related to the current state of the art of the present technology, and its detailed description is as follows. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention, the system of the present invention, the processor program product, and the method of the present invention, the full text of the specification, and all the drawings presented together with the present invention can be described in more detail.

Method 3 (9) is described with reference to the network adapter 1 所 所 shown in Fig. 1, but it can also be applied to other systems. At step 305, the SLIC 140 detects the answering condition and notifies the cpu 135. At step 119402.doc -16- 200818853, the DSP (not shown) in CPU 135 waits for the first dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) number of the receiving microphone. In step 315, if the CPU 135 decides from the first number that the call is to be placed on the repeater 160, the CPU 135 instructs the D A A 14 5 to answer, as shown in step 3 2 0. At step 325, the DSP software of CPU 135 processes the DTMF digits in a different manner depending on whether the call is a VoIP or PSTN call. Change the routing number path based on whether the call is a VoIP or PSTN call. At step 330, method 300 determines if the call should be routed to the PSTN. At step 335, if the DSP software determines that the call is a VoIP call, the number is either retrieved in the loop or stored in the flash memory buffer 110. In step 340, if the DSP software determines that the call is a PSTN call, the number is retrieved in the loop and transmitted to the DAA 145 and then to the central exchange of the local telephone company (not shown). At step 345, the next DTMF digit is received and the method receives the DTMF digit until the last digit is received at step 350, which is determined by the timeout value that is exceeded when waiting for the digit or by the user pressing the # key. At step 355, method 300 determines if the last digit has been routed to the PSTN. In the case of a PSTN call, the DAA 145 handles the instant conversion of the analog and digital signals and sees that the call has begun. In the case of a VoIP voice call, the CPU 135 generates and receives appropriate messages via the WAN 155 based on the protocol used to place the VoIP call. Based on the status message generated by the remote analog phone adapter or VoIP phone (not shown), the CPU 135 generates appropriate tones such as analog vibrato, busy recording, and network squeak. 4 is a flow chart showing a method 400 of ending VoIP call 119402.doc -17- 200818853, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Method 400 is described with reference to network adapter 100 shown, but it can be applied to other systems as well. At step 405, the CPU Π5 waits to detect the hang-up (hang-up) state or the remote termination message of the detected microphone of the SLIC 14 。. If, as in step 41, the CPU 135 receives an hang up call confirmation from the SLIC 140, the CPU 135 sends a termination message to the far end and then waits for the far end to acknowledge the message. At step 415, after the remote end confirms this termination, the call is considered to have ended and the voice conversation ends. Xin If, as in step 420, the hang up telephone signal of the far end microphone is not detected, the CPU 135 checks if the end reception has been terminated. At step 425, if the CPU receives the hang-up call signal from the called party, the CPU 135 waits for the detection SLIC 140 to notify the remote microphone that it has hanged up. After the suc 14〇 notification hangs up the call signal, the call ends and the voice conversation ends. At step 403, after the predetermined length of time for which the telephone signal is to be dropped, the DSP of the CPU 13 5 will generate a busy tone of the switch and transmit the tone to SLIC φ ~ I40. The parent change busy tone is to inform the user that the far end has terminated the call, so the user must hang the microphone. At step 435, the CPU waits to detect a notification signal that the remote microphone of the SLIC 140 has been hung up. At step 44, after the cpu 135 obtains the notification that the user has hanged up, the cpu 135 stops the busy tone of the switch and will end the call, and the voice conversation ends. Figure 5 is a flow diagram showing a method 500 of a call flow at the beginning of a ν〇ιρ call, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The method 5 is described with reference to the network adapter 100 shown in Fig. 1, but it can also be applied to other systems. At step 510, the CPU 135 receives the phantom (ringing) letter 119402.doc -18-200818853 of the voice service. The analog telephone adapter receives the remote user's message via the broadband modem 240, which indicates that the call is to be initiated. At step 5 15, the CPU 135 instructs the DSP to generate a ringing tone to the SLIC 140 that produces a ring current that will be sent to the microphone (not shown). At step 520, the SLIC 140 waits for the microphone to answer. At step 525, after determining the answering microphone, cpu 丨 35 sends a notification message to the remote end. At step 530, the CPU waits for the confirmation of the remote voice service. After receiving the confirmation, the Internet voice conversation begins and both parties begin streaming voice. Figure 6 is a flow diagram of a method 600 of displaying a PSTN initiated call flow in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Method 6 is described with reference to network adapter 100 shown in Figure i, but it can also be applied to other systems. At step 605, the network adapter 100 receives via the DAA 145 a message via the broadband data machine 240 indicating that someone is about to initiate a call. In step "^, CPU/35 instructs Dsp to generate a ringing tone for suc 14 , which forms a ring current to be sent to the microphone (not shown). At step 615, cpu 135 waits for the Φ tube to answer. After the microphone is answered The CPU sends a notification message to the remote end 'then then both parties begin streaming voice, and thus the PSTN voice conversation begins. In another embodiment of the invention, the network adapter 100 is available for emergency calls. In prior art In the system, there are many difficulties in using VGIP technology to make 911 calls or other emergency calls. For example, the ν〇ΙΡ service cannot connect to the 911 service. In addition, the emergency call with the VgIp service does not include the location of the caller. Caller identification information, which is often important information in an emergency.

The method 7 is described with reference to the network adapter 100 shown in Fig.!, but it can also be applied to other systems. In step 705, the SLIC 140 detects the answering status and notifies the CPU 135. Built in the CPU 135 The DSP (not shown) waits for the first DTMf number to be received from the microphone. At step 710, the CPU 135 determines that the call is an emergency call. This is determined by the user based on emergency services (eg, 911 calls, 311 calls, and general technicians). The other service) is determined by entering a known DTMF number. At step 715, the CPU 135 routes the call to the mobile phone die 13() to transmit the call to the receiver via the mobile telephone network 210. The mobile phone network chip 130 (or The mobile telephone network circuit is used to modulate the voice signal in a manner that allows voice signals to be transmitted over the mobile telephone network.

The figure depicts a communication network 800 that includes a telephone 805, a USB adapter 810, a computer 815, and a packet switched network 82, such as the Internet. In this particular description, phone 805 is coupled to computer 815 via USB adapter 81; however, this particular interface is only mentioned by way of example and is not essential or important to the present invention. For example, the phone 805 itself may be a USB phone and thus can be directly connected to the computer 815 via a USB interface, such that an intermediate adapter is not required. It can be used in place of USB or in addition to other communication protocols. In the system of FIG. 8, a typical call using the telephone 8〇5 will be routed to the packet switching network through the adapter 810 and the computer 815 using the VoIP technology. Since the emergency call on the system has problems as described above, the present invention An emergency call re-routing function is available in the month, via a mobile phone interface or some other interface dedicated to an emergency. Specifically, the telephone 8〇5, the adapter 810 or the computer 815 may include a mobile phone (or emergency) interface, such as a mobile phone chip or a PCMCIA card, and a re-routing such as a dedicated application software, such as rerouting routing wisdom can borrow The detection has already dialed "91", and the emergency call is detected, and then the call re-routing is routed to the mobile phone network via the mobile phone interface. Both Mingzhuang's mobile phone interface and re-routing wisdom can be included in the telephone 8〇5, adapter 810, or computer. However, please also note that the heavy and the road: % Hui does not need the same physical device located in the mobile phone interface: and can be re-selected by the independent component of the mobile phone interface including the mobile phone interface. Heart, words. For example, in one embodiment, the telephone 8〇5 119402.doc -21 · 200818853 is a general electric tongue, and the adapter 810 includes a mobile phone interface and a computer 815 including a re-routing route. In such a system, the re-routing route of Camphor 8 $ Tian Hui detects that an emergency call has been made and then sends a message to the adapter 810 to route the call on the mobile phone interface. (The adapter must of course have a $received and back-stressed message and re-select the power of the road call via the mobile phone interface. However, this function is well known to the average technician, so this article is no longer a brother.) Similarly, in yet another embodiment, the mobile phone interface is disposed in the phone 805, and the reselection routing intelligence is disposed in the computer 815. In this embodiment, similar detection and signaling procedures occur between the computer and the telephone, as will be understood by those of ordinary skill. Also note that in this embodiment, a separate adapter assembly is not necessary. Indeed, in reselection: the specific embodiment of the telephone 805 or adapter that is placed in the computer 815 by the smart and emergency interface is not necessary, especially if the computer 815 includes all of the common functions of a general microphone and is known. In the shoulder embodiment, as in the example of the present invention, reference is made to FIG. 9, which depicts a flow chart for rerouting a routed call according to the aspect of the present invention, and after the user makes a call, re-selects the routing wisdom... 疋No Emergency call. If it is not an emergency call, the call is routed in the normal way. ^ iS ^ e ^ ^ Step 910 does not, if the answer is an emergency call, then re-route it to the emergency interface in the case of the mobile phone interface. As described above, in the b, the item phone interface can be deployed in any of the various system components, and the re-selection of the _μΤ and ^ routing can be a specific transmission between the pieces. As shown in step 915, After the thunder-stricken person z ^ routed, 'via the mobile phone', the call was transmitted to the mobile phone J Saki, and the telephone network was moved to use H9402.doc -22- 200818853 in the way of 'calling and including the caller's location. The informational special service information is transmitted to the PSAP as shown in step 920. Figure 10 shows a computer system 1000 including a device 1010 for use with a computer 1100. The device 1〇1〇 includes control logic 1〇2〇, such as a controller, dedicated processing And/or a CPU that can receive a first signal 1030, such as an analog or digital signal. The analog signal can be a dual tone multi-frequency based signal. If control logic 1020 receives an analog signal, it has an associated analogy To the digital converter, the analog signal 1035 is converted into a digital signal for processing. Therefore, if the first signal 1030 is a digital signal, the analog to digital converter 1040 included in the device 1〇1〇 is used, from the class. The signal converts the digital signal. Also, the signal referred to herein may include a signal that combines multiple signals. Control logic 1020 evaluates the first signal 1〇3〇 to determine whether the first signal 1030 corresponds to an emergency "911" call. Emergency call. If control logic 1020 determines that the first signal corresponds to an emergency call, it outputs a second signal 1050. The second signal 1〇5〇 may be the same as or derived from the first signal 1〇3〇. The name 101G may also include a first transceiver 1G6G that receives the first #唬1050 from the control logic (10), and after receiving the second signal 1〇5, transmits the radio signal 1065 to establish two-way communication corresponding to the emergency call. aisle. The two-way channel # can include the Business Mobile Radio Service ("CMRS"). According to another embodiment of the present invention, the control logic may also determine whether the first signal 1030 corresponds to an outbound call other than an emergency call, and if so, to determine that the first signal 1 (four) corresponds to an outbound call other than an emergency call. When you call, provide the first money to the computer 11〇〇. The computer 11()0 then 119402.doc -23-200818853 facilitates the transmission of a third signal (1) by means of - or a plurality of data networks (10), which is a digital signal 'which corresponds to an outbound call. In addition, dialing a call can be implemented as a ν〇ΙΡ call. The third signal 111A may include at least one data packet (not shown) and an address (not shown) corresponding to the remote device 115 that will receive the data packet. Device 1010 can include a connector 1 to 7 of the computer 1100. Connector 1070 can be a USB connector < an Ethernet connector or other connector. The device can also be wirelessly coupled to the computer via, for example, a second transceiver 1 〇 8 。. Control logic 1020 and/or first transceiver 1A can be implemented on a particular application integrated wafer (not shown) that will greatly facilitate its use in a micro device. Control logic 1020 and/or first transceiver 1A can be implemented on a card (e.g., a PCMCIA card) (not shown) that is inserted into the slot of computer 1100. Or 'control logic 1020 and/or first transceiver 1〇6〇 can be built into the computer 11' so that no separate device 1010 is needed, or control logic 1020 or first transceiver 1060 is provided therein to Simplified device 1010. In an efficient embodiment of the preferred embodiment, the device 1 and/or the computer 1100 can be implemented without a user identification module or a connector of the user identification module. The computer 1100 includes one or more processors 1160 (such as a CPU), controllers (not shown), and/or control logic (not shown) coupled to the memory 1170; memory such as RAM, ROM, SDRAM, EEPROM, flash Memory, hard drive, CD player, and/or floppy disk drive. Control logic 1020 of device 1010 can also have this memory associated therewith to store material for use in implementing the software and/or software of the present invention. 119402.doc -24- 200818853 Users can access the computer directly or indirectly via one or more data networks, such as regional networks, wide area networks, wireless networks, or the Internet. If the computer 1100 can be directly accessed, the user can interact with the computer 1100 via an input/output device (not shown) such as a button or a rotting ball. The computer 11 can have a display 1190, such as a monitor or LCD. , , , , , or a plasma display to display information to the user. Computer 11 (10) can also be caked to a printer (not shown) to print information. The computer 1100 stores in the memory 1170 a software (and corresponding material) for implementing a particular embodiment of the present invention. Also stored in the memory 1170 of the computer 1100 is data dependent on the software application code of the present invention. The software application code can also be implemented in hardware via a dedicated device such as a control logic or controller. The software application code includes software instructions executed by the processor ιΐ6〇 or some other processor separate from the CPU of the computer 1100. Alternatively, the software can be executed by a processor, controller, or control logic on device 1010. In execution, the software application code will cause the processor 1160 to receive the first signal (e.g., the first signal 1030) and evaluate the first signal to determine if the first signal corresponds to an emergency call. The software application code can do this by, for example, evaluating a signal representative of the frequency of one or more of the signals corresponding to the key press in the DTMF embodiment. Therefore, if a button press corresponding to "9丨, "1," "^^^" "i" is associated with an emergency call, it should be determined whether the signal includes a frequency index corresponding to the key presses for identifying the emergency call. The software application code may also cause the processor to output a second nickname (such as the second signal 1050) to the first transceiver when determining that the first signal corresponds to an emergency call (eg, the first transceiver 119402.doc -25-200818853) 1030). The first transceiver is capable of receiving the second signal from the processor and transmitting the radio signal (eg, the radio signal 1065) after receiving the second signal to establish a two-way through-four (I) bi-directional communication channel corresponding to the emergency call, which may include a commercial mobile radio The service ("CMRS" can make an emergency call to an emergency operator. During execution, the software application code can also cause the processor 116 to determine whether the first signal corresponds to an outbound call other than an emergency call, processor ii6〇 When the first signal corresponds to an outbound call other than the emergency call, the third signal corresponding to the outbound call (such as the third signal 111〇) may be conveniently transmitted via one or more data networks 112. Is a digital signal.) This can be accomplished in a similar manner as described above in connection with emergency call detection in a DTMF based embodiment, but evaluating the signal to determine that it does not contain the frequency corresponding to these key presses associated with the emergency call. Indicator. As described above, the outbound call can be implemented as a VoIP call, and the third signal can include at least one data packet and corresponding to the data to be received. The address of the remote device of the packet 丨丨 5 。. Figure 11 illustrates a method for making a telephone call in green, which includes the step i2: evaluating the first signal in a computer or device (for use with a computer) (such as the first Signal 1030) to determine whether the first signal corresponds to an emergency call, such as an emergency "911" call. The first signal may be an analog or digital signal. The analog signal may be based on a dual tone multi-frequency signal D if the first signal is digital The signal is converted to the first signal from the analog signal using an analog to digital converter (such as analog to digital converter 1〇4〇). Thereafter, in step 1210, if the signal is corresponding to an emergency call, the transceiver transmits and receives A transceiver (such as transceiver 1030 'which may or may not be located in the computer 1 i) transmits wireless telecommunications 119402.doc -26-200818853 #u to establish a two-way communication channel corresponding to an emergency call. The two-way communication channel may include Business Mobile Radio Service ("CMRS"). The oral method may also include step 122: evaluating whether the first letter ", 疋 栺 对应 corresponds to an emergency call in a computer or device After the external dialing is performed, in step 1230, if it is determined that the first signal corresponds to the outgoing call of the emergency communication, if the first signal is generated outside the computer, it is provided to the computer. Thereafter, In step _, the second axe is transmitted via the data network (such as the poor network 1120), and the music is 1 port, and the brother is a bit (which may be a digital message corresponding to the outbound call via the data network). As described above, the outbound call can be implemented as a V°IP call' and the second signal can include at least one data packet and a bit corresponding to a known device (such as the remote device 1150) that will receive the data packet.
