MPEG portable sound reproducing system and a reproducing method thereof
First Claim
1. An MPEG portable sound reproducing system, comprising:
- power supply means for supplying operational power to the system, the power supply means being realized through a secondary battery;
power processing means for rectifying power supplied from the power supply means to stable voltage and current;
information display means for displaying numbers and combinations of letters related to operational states of the system;
control means for controlling all operations of converting and reproducing sound data compressed using the MPEG method;
data storage means for storing MPEG-compressed sound data in a designated address according to signals output from the control means;
information selecting means for selecting general operations to reproduce, download, and apply selected sound data stored in the data storage means;
sound reproducing means for converting sound data stored in the data storage means into a format audible to users according to signals output from the control means; and
transmitting/receiving means for transmitting and receiving sound data and program data from external devices.
