System and method for using speech recognition with a vehicle control system
First Claim
1. A control system for use in a vehicle and for accessing data files from a portable electronic device over a wireless communication link, the vehicle including a microphone for receiving an oral command from a vehicle occupant and an output display, the system comprising:
- a communication device for establishing the wireless communication link with the portable electronic device, the communication device being configured to receive a plurality of data files from the portable electronic device, wherein each of the data files includes text data;
a data processing device coupled to the communication device, the data processing device being configured to generate a phonemic representation of the text data of the data files, wherein the phonemic representation of the text data of each data file is configured to facilitate speech recognition relating to the files;
a speech recognition device configured to receive the oral command from the microphone, the speech recognition device being further configured to compare the received oral command to the phonemic representation of the data file generated by the data processing device; and
a display driver for coupling to the output display, the display driver being configured to provide an electronic signal to the output display, wherein the electronic signal comprises a representation of the text data.

Abstract
A method for accessing data files with an in-vehicle control system from a remote source over a communication link. The communication link is established between an in-vehicle control system and the remote source. The method includes: establishing the communication link between the in-vehicle control system and the remote source to facilitate retrieving the data files from the remote source to the in-vehicle control system; retrieving at least one of the data files from the remote source over the communication link, wherein each of the data files may include text and numeric data; identifying the text and numeric data of each of the data files; generating a phonemic representation of the text and numeric data of the data files; and storing the data file retrieved from a remote source in a memory device.

11. A method for recognizing speech received from a vehicle occupant at a microphone mounted in a vehicle using a control system for mounting in the vehicle, the speech relating to a data file stored in a portable electronic device, the method comprising:
-
establishing a wireless communication link between the control system and the portable electronic device; retrieving the data file from the portable electronic device over the wireless communication link, the data file including text data; identifying the text data; generating a phonemic representation of the text data; comparing the generated phonemic representation to a signal received from the microphone at the control system, the signal representing the speech; and causing the portable electronic device to establish a phone call based on a result of the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)
