TELECOMMUNICATION DEVICE WITH ACOUSTICALLY PROGRAMMABLE RINGTONE GENERATING MEANS AND A METHOD FOR THE PROGRAMMING THEREOF

摘要

A telecommunication device, such as a mobile telephone, has an acoustically programmable ringtone generator (230, 240), a digital memory (220), and an audio receiver (250). The device also has means (200, 250) for producing tone-related digital parameters from sound received by the audio-receiver (250). These tone-related digital parameters are stored in the digital memory. A controller (200) is provided for controlling the ringtone generator (230, 240) to generate a ringtone pattern according to the tone-related parameters stored in the digital memory.
