Method and gateway for the conversion of voice and/or videodata between a circuit switched and a packet switched data network

摘要

The method involves converting voice and/or video data between circuit-switching and packet-oriented data networks in a gateway between the networks. Packet generation and echo suppression are carried out by channel and separately on separate processor units, especially digital signal processors (DSP) and a switching function is carried out across the channels on a further separate processor unit. AN Independent claim is also included for the following: a gateway for implementing the inventive method.
