Abstract: A headset (1) comprises a body (3) and a boom (4), on which a microphone is located. The boom (4) is mounted so that the position of a microphone (5) relative to the body (3) can be adjusted. The headset 1 further comprises a controller (15) arranged to process an electrical signal generated by the microphone (5) by equalizing components corresponding to high and low audio frequencies in accordance with the detected position of the microphone (5). For instance, low frequencies may be preferentially attenuated if the microphone (5) is used when the boom (4) is in a retracted position. Optionally, the controller (15) may also adjust the gain of the microphone (5) in accordance with the position of the microphone (5). The headset (1) may be used to communicate with an external device (2) using a wired or wireless connection. For example, the headset (1) may convey signals to and from a mobile telephone using the Bluetooth® protocol and/or may be used for Push-to-Talk applications.

Abstract: It is a problem with telecommunication equipment, such as a telephone exchange, that the counters produce so much information that the processes, such as statistic, traffic management and charging, do not have the time to process them. The system according to the invention includes two main blocks: the first main block is formed by one or more report request service blocks (21) and the second main block (22) is formed by one or more counter service blocks, each of which monitors one or more counters (c1, . . . , cn). The report request service block relays a start-up message (23) to those counter service blocks (e.g. 24) from which it needs counter information. The conditions on which the counter information is desired are stated in the message. The condition may be exceeding/falling short of a given threshold value or the condition may be a timetable, e.g. a time slot, in accordance with which the counter value is to be stated.
