Wireless Call Privacy Levels With Dynamic Audio and Display Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Calls and messages in wireless communication systems are vulnerable to security threats, necessitating enhanced privacy protection measures.
Innovation Solution
Electronic devices exchange privacy call request messages containing privacy level information, and when supported, perform calls based on configured privacy settings, including adjustments to audio, display, and call handling configurations.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If privacy protection measures are implemented for calls and messages, then security and privacy are improved, but device complexity and communication overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements privacy protection by changing parameters such as audio routing (speaker vs. earpiece), display visibility (locked vs. unlocked screen), and call handling modes based on privacy level settings. These parameter changes enable dynamic privacy control without requiring complex architectural modifications to the device.
2Reliability
If privacy configurations are applied during calls, then privacy protection is enhanced, but call quality and user experience may deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system dynamically adjusts privacy configurations based on real-time conditions such as call type (personal vs. work), environmental context, and user preferences. Audio routing, display behavior, and call handling are dynamically changed during calls without requiring manual intervention, maintaining both privacy and call quality.
3Adaptability or versatility
If multiple privacy levels are supported, then adaptability and privacy customization are improved, but device complexity and processing overhead increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments privacy protection into distinct levels (e.g., personal, work, public) with specific configurations for each level. This segmentation allows the device to handle different privacy scenarios using predefined templates, reducing processing overhead compared to creating custom privacy settings for every scenario.

AI summary
The present disclosure relates to a method, performed by a first electronic device, of performing communication in a wireless communication system, and a device for performing communication. The method of performing communication may include receiving, from a second electronic device, a privacy call request message containing information about a first privacy level, identifying whether a privacy configuration corresponding to the first privacy level is supported, and when the privacy configuration is supported, performing a call with the second electronic device based on the privacy configuration.
