Abstract: When an OFDM radio system which uses a wide frequency band is interfered with by another narrow-band radio system, the interference can frequently be compensated but the transmission quality decreases drastically. Thus, narrow-band interferers in an OFDM radio system are determined according to the invention whereby none of the subscribers of the radio system transmits in a defined time slot or scan slot but all switch at the same time into the receiving mode. If there is interference (P1, P2), it is detected in this time slot. Countermeasures are taken individually in all the mobile devices, in particular the detection of the frequency and strength of the narrowband interference (P1, P2) and the configuration of a flexible notch filter (140) in the time range to the detected frequency and strength. The scanned received signal (RXS) is then filtered in the time range, i.e. before the FFT (120) and the OFDM channel estimation (130) by the correspondingly configured notch filter (140).

Abstract: Protection helmets may include integrated communication systems to allow the wearer to communicate with other persons. In a very loud environment, a reduction of ambient noise may be helpful, for example, for improving wireless communication. An improved protection helmet includes a helmet shell, a chin guard, a first microphone mounted on the inside of the chin guard and facing the mouth of the wearer, a second microphone mounted on the outside, the upper side or the lower side of the chin guard and not facing the mouth of the wearer, an electronic noise reduction unit generating a difference signal between signals of the first and the second microphone, and at least one interface for outputting the difference signal. Ambient noise in the signal of the first microphone can be reduced with the signal of the second microphone.

Abstract: A method of low-latency audio transmission in a mobile communications network utilizing first data frames or subframes encoded according to a first format and shorter second data frames encoded in another second format for audio data. An audio transmission system includes a terminal, a base station, and an audio receiver. The terminal transmits via an uplink audio data that are encoded in the second format and other data that are encoded in the first format. The audio receiver directly receives the audio data transmitted via the uplink. The encoding/decoding of the audio data of one of the second data frames is influenced by other audio data of the same second data frame but not by audio data of another second data frame. Audio transmission from the terminal to the audio receiver is effected in the allocated time slots and frequencies in a waveform in conformity with the mobile communications network.

Abstract: A wireless microphone and/or in-ear monitoring system having at least one first mobile device for wirelessly transmitting first audio signals. The system also has at least one base station for wirelessly receiving the first audio signals transmitted by the mobile device. The wireless transmission is based on an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing transmission (OFDM) during a time-division multiple access (TDMA) time slot. Each wireless microphone occupies at least one slot within 2 ms. Each of the TDMA frames has a plurality of slots which respectively have precisely one OFDM symbol. Accordingly, precisely one OFDM symbol is transmitted in each TDMA slot. During a time slot made available in accordance with the TDMA, a transmission is effected on the basis of an OFDM method. The TDMA frame length is so short as a latency of <4 ms is required for professional audio transmission, for example in the case of wireless microphone systems.
