Abstract
A device includes an audio processor. The audio processor is configured to, responsive to transitioning from a low-power state to an active state during a voice call, obtain a first audio component from a first audio source and a second audio component from a second audio source. The first audio component corresponds to a user's voice data of the voice call, and the second audio component corresponds to additional audio. The audio processor is configured to generate output audio for transmission during the voice call based on the first audio component and the second audio component. The audio processor is also configured to, after generating the output audio, transition from the active state to the low-power state.
Claims20
A device comprising:
- an audio processor configured to:
- transition, based on timing criteria associated with a voice call, from a low-power state to an active state concurrently with a corresponding transition of a modem;
- responsive to the transition from the low-power state to the active state during the voice call and during the active state:
- obtain, from a first audio source, a first audio component corresponding to a user's voice data of the voice call;
- obtain, from a second audio source, a second audio component corresponding to additional audio;
- and
- generate output audio for transmission during the voice call based on the first audio component and the second audio component;
- and
- after the generation of the output audio, transition from the active state to the low-power state.
A method comprising:
- transitioning, at an audio processor and based on timing criteria associated with a voice call, from a low-power state to an active state during the voice call, concurrently with a corresponding transition of a modem, and, responsive to transitioning to the active state and during the active state:
- obtaining, at the audio processor, a first audio component from a first audio source, the first audio component corresponding to a user's voice data of the voice call;
- obtaining, at the audio processor, a second audio component from a second audio source, the second audio component corresponding to additional audio;
- and
- generating, at the audio processor, output audio for transmission during the voice call based on the first audio component and the second audio component;
- and
- transitioning, at the audio processor, from the active state to the low-power state after generating the output audio.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by an audio processor, cause the audio processor to:
- transition, based on timing criteria associated with a voice call, from a low-power state to an active state concurrently with a corresponding transition of a modem;
- responsive to the transition from the low-power state to the active state during the voice call and during the active state:
- obtain, from a first audio source, a first audio component corresponding to a user's voice data of the voice call;
- obtain, from a second audio source, a second audio component corresponding to additional audio;
- and
- generate output audio for transmission during the voice call based on the first audio component and the second audio component;
- and
- after the generation of the output audio, transition from the active state to the low-power state.
