Apparatus for providing a connection to a wide area network for voice calls, a power management circuit, and a method for providing a connection to a wide area network for voice calls - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240114094 titled 'Apparatus for providing a connection to a wide area network for voice calls, a power management circuit, and a method for providing a connection to a wide area network for voice calls
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an apparatus for providing a connection to a wide area network for voice calls, with a power management circuit to switch off parts of the apparatus in a power down mode if the supply voltage drops below a threshold.
- Wide area network circuit transmits voice call data packets
- Phone connection circuit receives voice call signal from a phone
- Processor circuit generates voice call data packets based on received signal
- Power management circuit switches off parts of the apparatus in power down mode if supply voltage drops below threshold
Potential Applications
This technology could be used in:
- Mobile phones
- VoIP devices
- Telecommunication systems
Problems Solved
- Power consumption management
- Efficient use of resources
- Reliable voice call connections
Benefits
- Extended battery life
- Improved power efficiency
- Enhanced reliability of voice calls
Potential Commercial Applications
Optimized Power Management for Voice Call Devices
Possible Prior Art

Unanswered Questions
How does the apparatus determine when to switch off parts in power down mode?
The patent application does not provide specific details on the criteria used to determine when to switch off parts of the apparatus in power down mode.
What is the impact of switching off parts of the apparatus on the overall performance of voice calls?
The patent application does not discuss the potential impact on voice call quality or reliability when parts of the apparatus are switched off in power down mode.
Original Abstract Submitted
an apparatus for providing a connection to a wide area network for voice calls includes a wide area network circuit configured to transmit voice call data packets, a phone connection circuit configured to receive a voice call signal from a phone, a processor circuit configured to generate voice call data packets based on a voice call signal received by the phone connection circuit and a power management circuit configured to switch off at least a part of the apparatus to reach a power down mode of the apparatus, if a supply voltage drops below a supply voltage threshold.
