Abstract: An echo canceller and method for cancelling in a return channel
signal an echoed receive channel signal where the echoed receive channel
signal is combined by an echo channel with an input return channel
signal. The echo canceller has a first filter which generates first filter
coefficients, generates a first echo estimate signal with the first filter
coefficients, and updates the first filter coefficients in response to a first
filter control signal. A first summer subtracts the first echo estimate signal
from a combined return channel and echo receive channel signal to
generate a first echo residual signal. A second filter generates second filter
coefficients, generates a second echo estimate signal with the second filter
coefficients, and updates the second filter coefficients in response to a
second filter control signal. A second summer subtracts the second echo
estimate signal from the combined signal to generate a second echo
residual signal, and provides upon the return channel the second echo
residual signal. A control unit determines from the receive channel
signal, the combined signal, and the first and second echo residual signals,
one of a plurality of control states wherein a first control state is indicative
of a receive channel signal above a first predetermined energy level,
wherein when the control unit is in the first control state it generates the
first control signal and generates the second control signal when at least
one of a first energy ratio of the first echo residual signal and the combined
signal and a second energy ratio of the second echo residual signal and the
combined signal exceed a predetermined level.

Abstract: A process and apparatus for stopping a cutting operation of a plasma arc
torch is disclosed which minimizes the oxidation of the electrode to thereby extend
life of the electrode. A flow of oxidizing gas is directed through a plasma chamber

plasma arc. The flow of oxidizing gas is switched off a determinable time interval
before time  F , and a flow of non-oxidizing gas is switched on no later than time  F ,
whereby the non-oxidizing gas substantially completely purges the oxidizing gas
from the torch creating an inert environment, whereby the plasma arc extinguishes
in the inert environment.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for network management support of OAM functionality
in a communication network is presented. The network manager receives OAM
configuration information for a segment that includes a plurality of path points. For each
path point of the plurality of path points, the network manager determines, based on the
configuration of the network, if the path point is to serve as an OAM source or sink for
the desired OAM functional path. Based on this determination, the network manager
generates OAM configuration commands for the selected path points that are to serve as
OAM sources and sinks. These OAM configuration commands are then provided to the
corresponding path points such that the appropriate OAM sources and sinks are
established. Interaction with the network manager may be facilitated through the use of a
graphical user interface that accepts OAM configuration information as well as provides
detailed visual information as to current OAM sources, sinks, and intermediate path
points. If the network manager determines that a fault or other occurrence within the
network results in a reroute condition that affects a path over which OAM functionality
exists, the network manager can automatically reconfigure the various sources and sinks
established for the path to ensure that OAM functionality for the path is maintained.
Furthermore, the network manager can also generate additional source and sink points
that allow for isolation of the particular fault through the use of OAM continuity
checking.
