Title: Versatile error correction system
Inventor: ZOOK CHRISTOPHER P
IPC: G06F7/00
Filed: 1995-09-15
Abstract: An error correction system operates in two modes: (1) a two-phased mode for correcting computer data having pointers; and (2) a subcode mode for correcting subcode packs included with audio digital data. During the two-phased mode for correcting computer data with pointers, a generator (20), calculator (30), and corrector (60) are each operated during two phases. During a first phase (known as PTR-TIME) the generator (20) generates one or two multi-bit buffer-obtained pointers (αL0 = PO, αL1 = P1) for the most-recent codeword while the calculator (30) uses syndromes (S0, S1) generated by generator (20) for a previous codeword CWn-1 to generate one or two error patterns (E0, E1) for the previous codeword. During a second phase (shown as DATA-TIME), the generator (20) generates syndromes (S0, S1) for the most-recent codeword CWn while the calculator (30) performs mathematical operation(s) with respect to any multi-bit buffer-obtained pointers (i.e., P0, P1) for the most-recent codeword CWn. In the subcode mode, the error correction system attempts to perform correction with a subcode pack. In correcting subcodes, the system first generates differing sets of subcode syndromes with respect to differing portions of the pack. After generation of the subcode syndromes, the system controller (10) analyzes the subcode syndromes and applies differing correction strategies in accordance with the analysis. In view of the differing field lengths of the computer data and the subcodes, the syndrome generator (20) is selectively configurable for selection of differing feedback paths (e.g., feedback multipliers).

Abstract: An rms value of a sum signal series        x = en + νn          calculated by adding a noise series to an error signal series of a known signal series and an unknown signal series, is calculated by an rms calculator. By means of an amplitude controller, x is output as is when ¦x¦ is smaller than a threshold value A proportional to the rms value. When ¦x¦ is greater than the threshold value A, a product signal calculated by multiplying the polarity of x with the threshold value is output. Utilizing the output of the amplitude controller, respective tap weights of filter is corrected to generate be tap weights Ck (n) . By this, switching control between a probability gradient LMS algorithm (LA) and a probability gradient sign algorithm (SA) can be performed smoothly. Thus, an adaptively controlled filter having an advantage of small residual error and fast convergence of LA and an advantage of satisfactory strength against disturbance, such as burst noise or so forth of SA, can be obtained.

Abstract: When an electric current is supplied to an electrically heated catalyst (5) mounted on a vehicle, oxygen that is required is supplied by setting the air-to-fuel ratio to become lean, and the engine (1) during this period is prevented from losing stability. When the electrically heated catalyst is in a condition to be supplied with an electric current, the alternator (9) driven by the internal combustion engine is disconnected from the battery (8) and the current is supplied to the electrically heated catalyst. At the same time, the air-to-fuel ratio of the internal combustion engine is set to the lean region, and a deviation is found between the present engine running speed and the target running speed found from the operation conditions of the engine. The field current of the alternator is controlled toward a direction in which the deviation decreases and, at the same time, the amount of electric power supplied from the alternator to the electrically heated catalyst is monitored. When an average amount of electric power supplied within a predetermined period of time becomes smaller than a predetermined value, the running speed of the internal combustion engine is forcibly increased to promote the rise of temperature based upon the reaction of the catalyst with the fuel and, at the same time, the internal combustion engine is prevented from losing stability even under the lean conditions.

Abstract: A new technique for the determination of the masking effect of an audio signal is employed to provide transparent compression of an audio signal at greatly reduced bit rates. The new technique employs the results of recent research into the psycho-physics of noise masking in the human auditory system. This research suggests that noise masking is a function of the uncertainty in loudness as perceived by the brain. Measures of loudness uncertainty are employed to form noise masking thresholds for use in the compression of audio signals. These measures are employed in an illustrative subband, analysis-by-synthesis framework. In accordance with the illustrative embodiment, provisional encodings of the audio signal are performed to determine the encoding which achieves a loudness differential, between the original and coded audio signal, which is less than (but not too far below) the loudness uncertainty.

Abstract: In order to locate the position of a mobile station (MS) of a mobile radio system, the distance (D1) of the mobile station from a base transceiver station (BTS1) is determined, or the distances (D1, D2, D3) of the mobile station from at least two base transceiver stations (BTS1, BTS2, BTS3) are determined and the position (40) is found by triangulation. In a GSM-type system, there is a predetermined known response delay between a particular signal received by the mobile station from the base transceiver station and a particular response transmitted from the mobile station to the base transceiver station; the distances (D1, D2, D3) can therefore be determined from the response delay and a measured period between transmission of the particular signal and reception of the particular response. In a GSM-type system, the mobile station transmits messages indicating the signal strengths of the base transceiver stations it is receiving, and on that basis the system allocates one of the base transceiver stations to the mobile station; in order to measure the distance between the mobile station and at least one other base transceiver station, the messages are modified in order to force a handover from one base transceiver station to another. In a CDMA-type system, the "soft hand-off" feature can be used to determine the distance to two or more BTSs at the same time.

Abstract: A selected kaolin crude or crude fraction is purified by physical or physical/chemical means, such as froth flotation and/or selective flocculation, to remove discrete particles of TiO2 and in some cases, discrete iron minerals. The pure (or purified clay) must then be agitated in the presence of water with a particulate grinding media such as, for example, sand, alumina or zirconia beads, to increase the 2 micron content of the kaolin. An intermediate ground product that contains a substantial weight percentage of particles finer than 1 micron is generated as a result of grinding. The particles finer than 1 micron in the ground kaolin also include those particles in the previously pure or purified kaolin that were present in the naturally occurring clay. A pulp of the ground clay is then fractionated to remove particles larger than 2 microns, e.g., to remove at least 95%, preferably at 100% by weight, of the particles larger than 2 microns, while minimizing the removal of particles finer than 1 micron. The resulting fine particles size fraction is then treated by conventional series of steps, i.e., optional bleaching, drying, pulverization, calcination and repulverization to produce a low abrasion, ultrahigh brightness (typically 96%) calcined kaolin pigment.
