Appeal No. 2005-2429 Page 2 Application No. 10/069,612 In contrast, the appellants' telecommunication system detects an indication signal (e.g., a telephone number, a key signal, or a vocal signal) originating from a user's terminal or elsewhere in a telecommunications network. Based on the detected signal, the invention adjusts a capacity parameter (e.g., a fixed bandwidth, a fixed sampling rate, or noise reduction always switched on or off) for vocal commanding. (Id.) A further understanding of the invention can be achieved by reading the following claim. 1. A telecommunication system comprising: a network; and a terminal communicably linked to said network, wherein said network comprises: a switch comprising a detector for detecting an indication signal generated by said terminal; and a speech recognizer [sic] for vocal commanding, said speech recognizer comprising an adjustor for adjusting a variable capacity parameter for said vocal commanding based on said indication signal detected by said detector. Claims 1-14 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103(a) as obvious over U.S. Patent No. 6,363,079 ("Barzegar").Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
