Abstract: Disclosed herein are techniques for determining a wearing position of a boomless headset. An earpiece of the boomless headset can include at least one local talker (LT) microphone and a reference microphone. The LT microphone(s) are disposed substantially in a first end of the earpiece closest to a mouth of a LT when the LT wears the earpiece. The reference microphone is disposed substantially in a second end of the earpiece, furthest from the mouth of the LT when the LT wears the earpiece. A signal strength measurement (SSM) for a local talker audio signal to the LT microphone(s) and a SSM for a signal to the reference microphone are obtained. Signal processing logic can determine whether the earpiece is worn at an incorrect ear based on whether a difference between the SSM for the LT microphone(s) and the SSM for the reference microphone is below a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A method and system for implementing Access Control Lists (ACLs) using a Balanced Hash Table of ACL Binary Comparison Trees (ABCTs), where the Balanced Hash Table of ABCTs encodes the replaced ACL. In one embodiment, the method includes but is not limited to receiving at least one packet, and disposing of the received at least one packet in response to a walk of a Balanced Hash Table of ABCTs, where the Balanced Hash Table of ABCTs encodes an Access Control List. In another embodiment, the method further includes converting the Access Control List to the Balanced Hash Table of ABCTs, the Balanced Hash Table of ABCTs encoding the Access Control List. In one embodiment, the system receives at least one packet, and disposing disposes of the received at least one packet in response to a walk of a Balanced Hash Table of ABCTs, where the Balanced Hash Table of ABCTs encodes an Access Control List.
