<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and an apparatus for monitoring and remotely controlling a wireless audio source, especially via a communication network. <P>SOLUTION: In the method for remote control, the method and the apparatus for remotely controlling a set of functions for a wireless audio system from a remote controller are provided. The method includes steps of generating a digitally modulated pilot tone, and transmitting this pilot tone by a wireless communication to a wireless receiver. The digitally modulated pilot tone carries data about a plurality of functions related to the audio source and its associated transmitter. The method further includes a step of receiving the data at the wireless receiver, augmenting it with information related to the wireless receiver, and communicating the result data via the communication network to a remote central control 102. The method further includes a step of monitoring the result data at the remote central control 102, diagnosing detected problems associated with the wireless audio system, and sending appropriate remedial measures to the wireless audio system to alleviate the detected problems. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
