The present application discloses a media interaction method in a Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) network cluster. Communication with a DECT host is established through a DECT network cluster constructed in advance, to obtain first account information allocated by the DECT host, and information of a first call request to call a second account is sent to the DECT host, so as to make a call to the second account in a first communication manner. If no Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) from the second account is received, information of a second call request to call the second account is sent to the DECT host, so as to make a call to the second account in a second communication manner. Embodiments of the present disclosure can solve the technical problem of a communication failure and reduce a waiting time for communication, thereby achieving optimal Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) call experience.

The invention relates to, among others, a network device (10, 11, 12) for an intercom network (13) for permitting an audio communication, in particular a duplex audio communication with other users (14a, 14b, 14c, 14d, 14e, 14f) of the intercom network, comprising a housing (33) and a communication module (20a, 20b) arranged therein or thereon, with which a radio link can be established for the transmission of audio signals to another user, wherein the radio link is subject to the DECT protocol. The speciality, among others, consists in that the network device (10, 11, 12) comprises a means (21) for preventing or reducing multipath interferences.

A DECT network clustering system and method. Sending, by a DECT host to a router, a multicast command that declares joining a specified multicast group; sending, by a DECT device to the router, a multicast probe message sent to a target multicast group; receiving, by the router, the multicast command and the multicast probe message, and sending, to the DECT host according to the multicast command, the multicast probe message; receiving, by the DECT host, the multicast probe message, and sending status declaration information to the DECT device in a point-to-point manner according to the multicast probe message; receiving, by the DECT device, the status declaration information, and initiating a TCP connection request to the DECT host in a point-to-point manner according to the status declaration information; and receiving, by the DECT host, the connection request from the DECT device, and establishing a TCP channel with the DECT device.

Disclosed are a communication device having a base station function of a Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) cellular system, and a communication system. The communication device includes an IP phone and a DECT adapter. The IP phone is connected to the DECT adapter, to form a base station; and the DECT adapter is configured to wirelessly communicate with at least one cordless handset via DECT, so as to register information of the at least one cordless handset with the IP phone. The present application enables the IP phone to be externally connected to the DECT adapter to support a DECT mode, so that the IP phone possesses a base station function of a DECT cellular system. It is not required to deploy multiple different systems. Such an IP phone and other base stations can form a Multi-Cell DECT system, expanding the coverage of a DECT signal.

A DECT system and a method for communicating between a DECT fixed point and multiple DECT portable points. The method may include step (a) of communicating between a master communication processor of the DECT fixed point and one or more DECT portable points during master communication slots. The method may also include step (b) of communicating between a slave communication processor of the DECT fixed point and at least one of the DECT portable points during slave communication slots. step (a) and step (b) are executed according to an allocation of master communication slots and slave communication slots, wherein the allocation facilitates concurrent slave communication processor communications and master communication processor communications.

A method for receiving audio broadcasts during a digital enhanced cordless telecommunication (DECT) frame, the method may include (a) opening, during a DECT frame and by a portable point (PP) that is a potential recipient of the audio broadcasts from a fixed part (FP), multiple reception windows that are spaced apart from each other and are allocated to receive signals related to audio broadcast; (b) receiving received signals, by the PP and during the multiple spaced apart reception windows; and (c) processing, by the PP, the received signals.

A cordless telephone that establishes a call with a telephone of a destination via a base unit includes a controller and a radio unit. The controller modulates control data for controlling radio communication and voice data to be transmitted to the telephone, and stores a modulation control signal of the control data and a modulation voice signal of the voice data in a half slot of a Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) system. The radio unit transmits, by radio, the half slot to the base unit.

Disclosed are a Digital Enhanced Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) base station, a handset and a communication system. The DECT base station is installed with at least two different voice codecs and is configured to sequentially judge whether the voice codecs of the DECT base station match voice codecs of a handset according to a first codec information data packet sent by the handset, and when a matching is successful, send a response information to the handset to perform voice communication with the handset through a matched voice codec. By using the DECT base station can guarantee the normal voice communication between the DECT base station and the handset in the condition of installing voice codecs in the DECT base station.

A home monitoring and control system has a base unit, a monitoring system that has at least one monitoring device to output monitoring signals and a portable unit. The base unit has a base unit communications system. The portable unit has an infra red remote device controller, a human I/O interface, a portable unit communications system and a processor. The base unit communications system connects with a telecommunications landline and communicates wirelessly with the portable unit communications system. The processor processes monitoring signals provided by the monitoring system and provides notifications when that processing indicates a predefined event. The human I/O interface displays such notifications. The portable unit communications system communicates with the base unit communications system using a DECT communications protocol and with a Wi-Fi network.
