Abstract
A method, system and device for detecting a SILENCE period status 200A in a first device 101. The detection is performed by a second device 102 that is in communication with the first device, receiving transmissions of the first device.The SILENCE period status corresponds to a status wherein the first device has no speech samples to be transmitted towards the second apparatus.The second device receives, 413, transmissions from the first device and determines, 414A, 414B, 414C, the type of the received transmissions. The second device counts 415 the number of received transmissions of a first type, and times a time interval between the last received transmission of the first type and the last received transmission of a second determined type.At reception of a transmission of the first type, the second device detects 416 whether the first device is in the SILENCE period status 420 on an evaluation 416 of the counted number of transmissions of the first type and the time interval of the last received transmission of the first type and the last received transmission of the second type based on thresholds with a logical expression.
