Abstract

Embodiments of the invention may provide a method for implementing an adaptive multimode media queue. A mode of operation may be determined for a received media stream based on a sampling rate of the media stream. The mode of operation may be a wideband mode and/or a narrowband mode. Depending on the determined mode, the adaptive multimode media queue may be partitioned into a low band media queue and a high band media queue. A wideband media stream split into a high band and a low band is buffered into the adaptive multimode media queue wherein the high band is stored in the high band media queue, and the low band is stored in the low band media queue. The high band media queue and low band media queue may be a contiguous memory block within the adaptive multimode media queue. The received media stream, which may have different sampled data rates may be buffered within the partitioned adaptive multimode media queue.

Claims (26)

1. A system for implementing a queue, the system comprising:

a processor determining a mode of operation of a received media stream comprising determining a sampling rate of said received media stream;

said processor partitioning the queue into a first queue portion comprising a low band media queue and a second queue portion comprising a high band media queue depending on said determined mode of operation; and

buffering said received media stream in said first queue portion and said second queue portion.

2. The system according to claim 1 , wherein said sampling rate is at least one of a first sampling rate and a second sampling rate.

3. The system according to claim 2 , wherein said first sampling rate is approximately 8 KHz.

4. The system according to claim 2 , wherein said second sampling rate is approximately 16 KHz.

5. The system according to claim 1 , wherein said first queue portion and said second queue portion are a contiguous memory block within the queue.

6. The system according to claim 1 , wherein said received media stream comprises digitally encoded audio.

7. The system according to claim 1 , wherein said mode of operation is one of at least a wideband mode and a narrowband mode.

8. The system according to claim 1 , wherein said received media stream comprises at least a low band stream and a high band stream.

9. The system according to claim 1 , wherein said partitioning further comprises preserving said low band media queue if said mode of operation changes.

10. The system according to claim 1 , wherein said buffering further comprises buffering a low band stream within said low band media queue and a high band stream within said high band media queue.

11. A system having machine-readable storage having stored thereon a computer program having a plurality of code sections for implementing a queue, the code sections executable by the system, causing the system to perform the operations comprising:

determining a mode of operation of a received media stream, comprising determining a sampling rate of said received media stream;

partitioning the queue into a first queue portion comprising a low band media queue and a second queue portion comprising a high band media queue depending on said determined mode of operation; and

buffering said received media stream in said first queue portion and said second queue portion.

12. The system according to claim 11 , wherein said sampling rate is at least one of a first sampling rate and a second sampling rate.

13. The system according to claim 12 , wherein said first sampling rate is approximately 8 KHz.

14. The system according to claim 12 , wherein said second sampling rate is approximately 16 KHz.

15. The system according to claim 11 , wherein said first queue portion and said second queue portion are a contiguous memory block within the queue.

16. The system according to claim 11 , wherein said received media stream comprises digitally encoded audio.

17. The system according to claim 11 , wherein said mode of operation is one of at least a wideband mode and a narrowband mode.

18. The system according to claim 11 , wherein said received media stream comprises at least a low band stream and a high band stream.

19. The system according to claim 18 , wherein said partitioning further comprises preserving said low band media queue if said mode of operation changes.

20. The system according to claim 18 , wherein said buffering further comprises buffering said low band stream within said low band media queue and said high band stream within said high band media queue.
