Patent EP-2597820-A1 (EP)
Inventor: RAPONI PIER GIORGIO
IPC: H04L47/21
Filed: 2010-03-25
Abstract: A node (260, 50) for a multi-token optical communications network has optical channels between the node and other nodes, each channel having a token (T1, T2, T3), passed between nodes, to indicate that a corresponding optical channel is available for transmission during a token holding time. The node has a transmitter (280) for transmitting packets over the optical channels, a buffer (170, 270) for queuing packets before transmission, and a transmit controller (170, 290) configured to control the buffer to forward an initial packet or packets from the buffer to the transmitter once a token has been received. The transmit controller determines how much of the token holding time remains after the transmission of the initial packet or packets, and then controls the buffer to forward a further packet according to the remaining token holding time. A maximum packet delay can be reduced where there is asymmetric traffic. A token holding time can be different for different nodes.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for generating a stream of digital packets by means of an apparatus. The apparatus receives data packets sequentially transmitted in an isochronous stream and containing a series of data samples, e.g. sound data. The apparatus transmits a predetermined number of samples in frames that encode a series of samples starting with a first sample. The apparatus determines the value of a number identifying each sample contained in the input stream. The value of the number of said first sample in each frame is a multiple, possibly zero, of the predetermined number of samples. In this manner, regardless of the encoder that produces the frames, the latter contain the same samples without any shift from one encoder to the next. The switching between the output streams transmitted by a plurality of encoders can be carried out without any artifacts due to the transmission of the same samples.

Abstract: The pertinence of digital image material is analysed in respect of matching a given reference. A color of said reference constitutes a reference record in a perceptual color space. Pixels of a piece of digital image material are converted into said perceptual color space, and labelled according to how their converted pixel values belong to environments of principal colors in said perceptual color space. A connected set of pixels is selected that have at least one common label. A subset of said connected set of pixels is determined, so that the pixel(s) of said subset are those for which a color similarity distance to said reference record is at an extremity. For the connected set of pixels, a representative color is selected among or derived from the color or colors of the pixels that belong to said subset.
