Abstract

The present disclosure proposes a solution to associate a device with a user by capturing a voice of a speaker by a microphone connected to the network device (e.g. a residential or home gateway), monitoring the IP traffic of the network device and detecting the device contributing to this IP traffic in order to establish a link between the speaker and his device(s) and associate the device with the speaker.
