Abstract: A multipoint audio processing method for processing audio streams originating from a plurality of audio clients is executed in a multipoint audio processing node. The method includes the steps of receiving control information on how to preselect audio streams from received audio streams, receiving audio streams from audio clients connected to the distributed multipoint audio processing node and generating evaluated audio streams by analyzing packets of the received audio streams in terms of at least one audio communication characteristic, and attaching an analysis result information of said analysis to said packets, in each audio stream. Audio streams are selected by deciding on whether or not any evaluated audio stream is to be transmitted further, based on the received control information and/or the analysis result information contained in said evaluated audio streams.

Abstract: A method of operating a communication device comprises providing the communication device (T, T1-T5) with a first interface (I1) to connect to a first network (N1), which provides a first bandwidth and a first network idle power consumption at the communication device (T, T1-T5), when being connected to the first network (N1) and providing the communication device (T, T1-T5) with a second interface (I2) to connect to a second wireless network (N2), which provides a second bandwidth, which is smaller than the first bandwidth, and a second network idle power consumption, which is smaller than the first idle power consumption, at the communication device (T, T1-T5), when being connected to the second wireless network (N2).
