1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a method of communicating an audio/video data, and more particularly, to a method of communicating an audio/video data via a mobile communication apparatus under personal handyphone system (PHS).
2. Description of Related Art
In the present information era, communication between people via electronic communicative apparatuses is increasingly popular, especially via mobile apparatuses, for example mobile telephones or electronic apparatuses equipped with wireless communication function. Therefore, electronic communication has become a part of our daily life ever since. A mobile communication apparatus does not operate without a mobile communication system, and presently, two major mobile communication systems, namely Group Special Mobile (GSM) and Personal Handyphone System (PHS) are available.
Most communication apparatuses operated by GSM system manage to send messages, which may contain text, voice, image, and video files. However, those operated by PHS system is capable of sending regular text message, whereas audio/video files carrying voice, image and video files cannot be sent via the PHS system. For example, when a specific ringer signal of another users mobile communication apparatus is desired, the only way is to retrieve the ringer signal from another users apparatus is to re-input the code of the specific ring signal designated communicating apparatus, where the communication apparatuses are operated under PHS system.
Since a lot of PHS communication apparatuses are being desirably accepted among young customers, accordingly transmission of audio/video files via/between communication apparatuses are highly desired. However, since the current PHS and communication apparatuses thereof do not have the foregoing desirable functionality, those communication apparatuses operated under PHS are cannot be acceptable to young customers compared to those operated by GSM.
The present invention is directed to a method of transmitting an audio/video data using a mobile communication apparatus operated under the personal handyphone system (PHS).
The present invention is also directed to a method of receiving an audio/video data using a mobile communication apparatus operated under the personal handyphone system (PHS).
The present invention is also directed to a method of communication between mobile communication apparatuses operated under the personal handyphone system (PHS) using audio/video data.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, an audio/video data to be transmitted is selected. The audio/video data is then transformed into at least a data packet based on permitted data flow specified by the PHS system. Thereafter, the data packet is transmitted.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, after the communication apparatus receives a message, the message is determined whether or not it is a data packet. When the message is being identified as a data packet, is the message is then transformed into an audio/video data.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, in the audio/video data communication method between a first mobile communication apparatus and a second mobile communication apparatus using audio/video data, wherein the first and second mobile communication apparatuses with a PHS system. First, an audio/video data to be transmitted via the first mobile communicating apparatus is selected. The selected audio/video data is then transformed into at least a data packet based on a permitted data flow specified by the PHS system. The data packet is then transmitted. Afterwards, when the transmitted message is received by the second mobile communicating apparatus, and the data packet is transformed into the audio/video data.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, an audio/video data to be transmitted is first selected based upon a permitted data flow specified by PHS and the selected audio/video data is transformed into at least one data packet, and then the data packet is transmitted. The data packet is then received by another mobile communication apparatus operated under PHS and is rearranged before being examined for completeness thereof. In other words, an audio/video data can be freely transmitted, received, and the audio/video data can be used for communication between mobile communication apparatuses complying with PHS.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method of communication between a first and second mobile communication apparatuses using audio/video data utilizing the method the transmitting the audio/video data demonstrated in
In light of the above description, the method of communication using an audio/video data includes transforming an audio/video data to be transmitted into at least a data packet based on a permitted data flow specified by PHS system via a mobile communication apparatus, and then transmitting the data packet. Thereafter, the data packet is received by another mobile communication apparatus where the data packet is rearranged and verified for completeness before being transformed into the audio/video data. Therefore, an audio/video data can be freely transmitted, received, and transceived between mobile communication apparatuses complying with the PHS system, which greatly provide convenience to the mobile communication apparatus users.
Although the invention has been described with reference to a particular embodiment thereof, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that modifications to the described embodiment may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of the invention will be defined by the attached claims and not by the above detailed description.
