Learning Database

RecordContent

Structures• Full-text of patent applications and patent specifications published in the United
Kingdom from 1782 onwards.
• Patent applications begin in 1982, when the British Intellectual Property Office started
to publish applications.
• Database records comprise all documents published for one application. Records ofthe database contain bibliographic data, including patent applicant and inventor
information, patent, application and priority application data, IPC, CPC (including CPC
combination sets), and EPC classification codes, plus the searchable text of thecomplete documents, comprising titles, abstracts, description and claims.
• Numeric values of 59 physical and chemical properties are searchable in about 5000
unit variants within in all full-text fields.
• Clipped images (mostly front-page images) from 1893 onwards are also included, if
available.
Text has been created by Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software. Therefore,characters may be misinterpreted, or portions of the text may be incomplete. A small
percentage of records are absent because they failed to scan.

File Size• More than 2.97 million family records with more than 3.88 million publications(10/2023)• More than 1.96 million front page images from 1893 to present (10/2023)

Search and Display Field Codes
If multiple search terms are linked with and AND-operator, all terms are searched in the complete databaserecord, i.e. in all publications referring to one application. For a search in a specific publication of the record,connect the search term and the patent kind code with the (L)-proximity operator, e.g.
S BOREHOLE/AB,TI,CLM (L) GBA/PK limits the search to British applications GBA.
Fields that allow left truncation are indicated by an asterisk (*).

GBFULL

Property Fields1)
In GBFULL a numeric search for a specific set of physical properties (/PHP) is available within the full-text
fields (TI, AB, DETD, CLM, BI). The numeric values are not displayed as single fields, but highlighted within
the hit displays.
Use EXPAND/PHP to search for all available physical properties. A search with the respective field codes will
be carried out in all database fields with English text. The /PHP index contains a complete list of codes andrelated text for all physical properties available for numeric search.

GBFULLInternational Patent Classification (/IPC) Thesaurus
The classifications, validity and catchwords for the main headings and subheadings from the current (8th)edition of the WIPO International Patent Classification (IPC) manual are available. The classifications from theprevious editions (1-7) are also available as separate thesauri. To EXPAND and SEARCH in the thesauri foreditions 1–7, use the field code followed by the edition number, e.g., /IPC2, for the 2nd edition. Catchwords
are included only in the thesauri for the 8th, 7th, 6th, and 5th editions.

DISPLAY and PRINT Formats
Any combination of formats may be used to display or print answers. Multiple codes must be separated by
spaces or commas, e.g., D L1 1-5 TI AU. The fields are displayed or printed in the order requested.
The information of the latest publication is displayed by default. To display the content for all levels of therecord you can combine all display fields and formats with the qualifier .M except FA, FAM, CFAM, LS, LS2,
SCAN, and TRIAL.
For displaying a particular publication of a database record, you can simply add for certain display field thekind code to the appropriate display format, e.g. ALL.A1. Fields that allow this are indicated by a number (3).
Hit-term highlighting is available for all fields. Highlighting must be ON during SEARCH to use the HIT, KWIC,
and OCC formats.

Field Code(1) HIT may be used to restrict terms extracted to terms that match the search expression used to create the answer set,e.g., SEL HIT TI.
(2) Selects or analyzes application numbers with /AP appended to the terms created by SELECT.
(3) Appends /BI to the terms created by SELECT.
(4) Appends /IPC to the terms created by SELECT.
(5) You can combine these display fields with the qualifier .PK (Patent Kind Code) to select the content for a certain publication level of arecord. The normal search field code without the .PK extension is appended to selected terms.

Equivalent from GB2418818A
A method and an arrangement to provide a common platform for the encoderand decoder of various CELP codecs used during data/speech transmission
within a communication network, wherein common portions (1 to 4) of said
codecs were extracted and implemented on the common platform
communicating with the remaining portions (5 to 10) of said codecs.

A method and an arrangement to provide a common platform for the encoderand decoder of various CELP codecs
DESCRIPTION.
The invention relates to a method an arrangement to provide a common
platform for the encoder and decoder of various CELP codecs used duringdata/speech transmission within a communication networks.
BACKROUND OF INVENTION.
The presented invention particularly concerns in the development of the
VoIP access and trunk gateways. The demands of the customer features are
increasing, wherein resources in the gates and memory in used DSP, FPGA
or ASIC is limited. Supporting all the features or increasing number offeatures leads - on the one hand - to more expensive ASIC, FPGA and DSP
or lower port density achievement.
On the other hand every Telecom company is looking for the IP
convergence, particularly a convergence of Voice, Data and Video in asingle piece of equipment. A further important issue for the telecom
companies is to save as much bandwidth as possible during the data/speechtransmission, but not with too much compromise of quality.

implemented on the common platform communicating with the remaining
portions ( 5 to 10; 16 to 22) of said codecs.
2. A method as claimed in the preceding claim, wherein the codecs could
be represented by AMR, by Enhanced Full Rate GSM, by G729 or by G723.
3. A platform comprising implemented common portions of various CELP
codecs communicating with the remaining portions of said codecs usedduring data/speech transmission within communication networks.
4. A platform as claimed in the preceding claim, wherein the codecs could
be represented by AMR, by Enhanced Full Rate GSM, by G729 or by G723.
