Patent number: 7061873Abstract: In this invention, wireless video telephone communication between mobile telephones MS1 and MS2 using the MPEG-2 standard is performed when the reception field strength falls below a threshold value of H continuously for a specific period of T3 or longer in the course of receiving the data at one mobile telephone MS2, the telephone MS2 monitors the restoration of the reception field strength. After detecting the restoration, mobile telephone MS2 transmits a request for the transmission of an I frame to mobile telephone MS1. Upon receipt of the request, mobile telephone MS1 creates an I frame in place of a P frame and transmits the I frame.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2001Date of Patent: June 13, 2006Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha ToshibaInventors: Koichi Ito, Kentoku Yamaguchi, Nobuhiro Inoue, Yuichi Sato, Kei Sakuma, Seiji Oura, Tomeo Oka, Yoshihiro Kataoka, Hiroshi Ogasawara
