Abstract

This method, instead of employing a number display, encodes acoustically the telephone number of the caller according to the multifrequency method as a sound sequence. This can then be heard over the loudspeaker of the telephone or the usual ringing unit.

Description

Bei modernen Telefonapparaten ist es möglich, die Telefonnummer des Anrufers auf einem Display darzustellen.With modern telephones it is possible to get the telephone number of the caller on a display.

Zur Identifizierung muß aber auf das Display geschaut und eine vielstellige Ziffernfolge analysiert werden.For identification, however, one must look at the display and one multi-digit sequence of digits can be analyzed.

Einfacher geht es, wenn zusätzlich zur optischen Anzeige (oder aus­ schließlich) anstatt des Läutesignals die Telefonnummer des Anru­ fers akustisch codiert, z. B. gemäß dem Mehrfrequenzwahlverfah­ ren, als Tonfolge über den Lautsprecher des Telefons wiedergege­ ben wird. Lautstärke, Tonfolgenhöhe und -schnelligkeit können vom Angerufenen an seinem Apparat reguliert werden.It is easier if in addition to the visual display (or off finally) instead of the ringing signal the phone number of the Anru fers acoustically coded, e.g. B. according to the multi-frequency voting method as a sequence of tones played through the loudspeaker of the telephone will. Volume, tone sequence height and speed can be regulated by the called party on his or her set.

  • 1. Nach kurzer Eingewöhnungszeit kann der Angerufene häufigere Gesprächspartner bereits am "Klingeln" erkennen.1. After a short period of familiarization, the called party can move more frequently Recognize the other party by the "ringing".
  • 2. Zur Anruferidentifizierung wird kein Display gebraucht.2. No display is needed for caller identification.

Diese Funktion sollte selbstverständlich alternativ zum neutralen Klingeln schaltbar gemacht werden.This function should of course be an alternative to the neutral one Ringing can be made switchable.
