Abstract

A method for Cellular Text Telephone Modem (CTM) signal transmission includes: converting a CTM transmitter signal carried in a first sampling rate to generate a transmission signal carried in a second sampling rate, wherein the second sampling rate is different from the first sampling rate; and outputting the transmission signal carried in the second sampling rate to a CTM receiver.

Claims

1. A method for Cellular Text Telephone Modem (CTM) signal transmission, comprising:

converting a CTM transmitter signal carried in a first sampling rate to generate a transmission signal carried in a second sampling rate, wherein the second sampling rate is different from the first sampling rate; and

outputting the transmission signal carried in the second sampling rate.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

converting an input signal carried in a third sampling rate to generate a converted signal carried in the first sampling rate, wherein the third sampling rate is different from the first sampling rate; and

processing the converted signal carried in the first sampling rate to generate the CTM transmitter signal carried in the first sampling rate.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein the third sampling rate is equal to the second sampling rate.

4. The method of claim 2, wherein the input signal is a speech signal or a text telephone signal.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the second sampling rate and the third sampling rate are determined by a base station.

6. A method for Cellular Text Telephone Modem (CTM) signal reception, comprising:

receiving a transmission signal carried in a second sampling rate frequency; and

converting the transmission signal carried in the second sampling rate to generate a CTM receiver signal carried in a first sampling rate, wherein the first sampling rate is different from the second sampling rate.

7. The method of claim 6, further comprising:

processing the CTM receiver signal carried in the first sampling rate to generate a processed signal carried in the first sampling rate; and

converting the processed signal carried in the second sampling rate to generate an output signal carried in a third sampling rate.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the third sampling rate is equal to the first sampling rate.

9. The method of claim 7, wherein the output signal is a speech signal or a text telephone signal.

10. The method of claim 6, wherein the second sampling rate and the third sampling rate are determined by a base station.

11. A non-transitory machine readable medium having a program code stored therein, wherein when executed by a processor, the program code instructs the processor to perform the following steps:

converting a Cellular Text Telephone Modem (CTM) transmitter signal carried in a first sampling rate to generate a transmission signal carried in a second sampling rate, wherein the second sampling rate is different from the first sampling rate; and

outputting the transmission signal carried in the second sampling rate.

12. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 11, wherein when the program code is executed by the processor, the program code instructs the processor to further perform the following steps:

converting an input signal carried in a third sampling rate to generate a converted signal carried in the first sampling rate, wherein the third sampling rate is different from the first sampling rate; and

processing the converted signal carried in the first sampling rate to generate the CTM transmitter signal carried in the first sampling rate.

13. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 12, wherein the third sampling rate is equal to the second sampling rate.

14. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 12, wherein the input signal is a speech signal or a text telephone signal.

15. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 11, wherein the second sampling rate and the third sampling rate are determined by a base station.

16. A non-transitory machine readable medium having a program code stored therein, wherein when executed by a processor, the program code instructs the processor to perform the following steps:

receiving a transmission signal carried in a second sampling rate frequency from a CTM transmitter; and

converting the transmission signal carried in the second sampling rate to generate a Cellular Text Telephone Modem (CTM) receiver signal carried in a first sampling rate, wherein the first sampling rate is different from the second sampling rate.

17. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 16, wherein when the program code is executed by the processor, the program code instructs the processor to further perform the following steps:

processing the CTM receiver signal carried in the first sampling rate to generate a processed signal carried in the second sampling rate; and

converting the processed signal carried in the second sampling rate to generate an output signal carried in a third sampling rate.

18. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 17, wherein the third sampling rate is equal to the second sampling rate.

19. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 17, wherein the input signal is a speech signal or a text telephone signal.

20. The non-transitory readable medium of claim 16, wherein the second sampling rate and the third sampling rate are determined by a base station.
