Control unit for multipoint multimedia/audio system
Abstract
The present invention is a system and a method for providing a control unit for a multipoint multimedia/audio conference that enables one or more participants (1-N+2) to take part in more than one conference (A-X) simultaneously. The control unit can operate in audio and/or video sections of an MCU and/or Management and Control System (MCS). The MCS, in an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, controls the participation of at least one participant in more than one conference simultaneously by using a Cross-Conference Database (200). The MCU performs connection changes affecting which participants are associated with one or more conferences based on the information that is stored in the CCDB.
