DATA TRANSMISSION IN A TELECOMMUNICATION CONFERENCE
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A communication terminal comprising:
- an input device configured to input communication data needing to be sent in the course of a telecommunication conference into the communication terminal;
a memory configured to store the input communication data;
a reception device configured to receive from a conference control server unit a message signalling that at least one further communication terminal is ready to receive the communication data;
a transmission device configured to operate in a first mode, in which it sends data at a first data rate, and in a second mode, in which it sends data at a second data rate, the second data rate being higher than the first data rate; and
a control device, following receipt of the message, configured to control the transmission device such that the transmission device sends the communication data in the second mode.

Abstract
A communication terminal into which communication data can be input and which can receive a message signalling that at least one further communication terminal is ready to receive the communication data. Following receipt of the message, a transmission device configured to operate in a first mode, in which it sends data at a first data rate, and in a second mode, in which it sends data at a second data rate, which is higher than the first data rate, is used to send the communication data in the second mode.

9. A method for sending communication data, comprising:
-
inputting communication data needing to be sent in the course of a telecommunication conference into a communication terminal; storing the input communication data; receiving a message which signals that at least one further communication terminal is ready to receive the communication data; and controlling, following receipt of the message, a transmission device, which can be operated in a first mode, in which it sends data at a first data rate, and in a second mode, in which it sends data at a second data rate, the second data rate being higher than the first data rate, such that it sends the communication data in the second mode. - View Dependent Claims (10)

11. A conference server device comprising:
-
a message generation device configured to generate a message signalling that at least one further communication terminal is ready to receive communication data stored in a communication terminal; a transmission device configured to send the message to the communication terminal; a reception device configured to operate in a first mode, in which it receives data at a first data rate, and in a second mode, in which it receives data at a second data rate, the second data rate being higher than the first data rate; and a control device, when the message has been sent, configured to control the reception device such that the reception device receives the communication data in the second mode.
