Method of Transmitting Data in a Communication System
First Claim
1. A method of transmitting image data from a first node to a second node during a communication event, wherein the second node comprises a display for displaying image data at the second node, said method comprising;
- receiving at the first node, information indicating at least one display characteristic with which image data received at the second node will be displayed on said display;
inputting image data at the first node;
determining a processing step to be applied to the inputted image data to generate adapted image data, such that at least one characteristic of the adapted image data is optimised for said at least one display characteristic;
applying the processing step to generate the adapted image data; and
transmitting the adapted image data to the second terminal.

Abstract
A method of transmitting image data from a first node to a second node during a communication event, wherein the second node comprises a display for displaying image data at the second node, said method comprising; receiving at the first node, information indicating at least one display characteristic with which image data received at the second node will be displayed on said display; inputting image data at the first node; determining a processing step to be applied to the inputted image data to generate adapted image data, such that at least one characteristic of the adapted image data is optimised for said at least one display characteristic; applying the processing step to generate the adapted image data; and transmitting the adapted image data to the second terminal.

11. A method of transmitting image data from a first node to a second node during a communication event, wherein the second node comprises a display for displaying image data at the second node, said method comprising;
-
receiving at the first node, information indicating at least one display characteristic with which image data received at the second node will be displayed on said display; inputting image data at the first node; determining a processing step to be applied to the inputted image data to generate adapted image data, such that an acceptable quality threshold is met when the adapted image data is displayed with the display characteristic; applying the processing step to generate the adapted image data; and transmitting the adapted image data to the second terminal. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13)

14. A transmitting terminal arranged to transmit image data to a receiving terminal during a communication event, wherein the receiving terminal comprises a display for displaying image data, said transmitting terminal comprising:
-
a receiver for receiving information indicating at least one display characteristic with which image data received at the receiving terminal will be displayed on said display; an image inputting system for inputting image data at the transmitting terminal; a control block for determining a processing step to be applied to the inputted image data to generate adapted image data, such that at least one characteristic of the adapted image data is optimised for said at least one display characteristic; a processing block for applying the processing step to generate the adapted image data; and a transmitter for transmitting the adapted image data to the second terminal. - View Dependent Claims (15)

16. A receiving terminal for receiving image data transmitted from a transmitting terminal during a communication event, said receiving terminal comprising:
-
a display for displaying image data received by the receiving terminal, a display reporter unit arranged to determine information indicating a display characteristic with which image data received at the second node will be displayed on said display; and a transmitter for transmitting said information indicating said display characteristic to the transmitting terminal, such that the transmitting terminal may adapt the image data to be transmitted to the receiving terminal in order to optimise at least one characteristic of the image for said at least one display characteristic.
