Abstract: There is provided an encoding and decoding apparatus which can provide a high quality reproduction sound. There are provided an encoding section (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) and a decoding section (7, 8, and 9) . A block length determining section (1) of the encoding section time-sharingly divides an input signal into blocks having a block length corresponding to the degree of change of the input signal. A frequency band dividing section (2) divides the signal of each block into a plurality of frequency bands. A bit allocating section (3) obtains a masking threshold value-to-noise ratio of each frequency band from the magnitude of the power of each frequency band reflecting a psychoacoustic characteristic, and determines the amount of quantization bits to be allocated to each frequency band based on the magnitude of the masking threshold value-to-noise ratio. A quantizing section (4) generates a code string by quantizing the signal while allocating a specified amount of bits to each frequency band based on information from the bit allocating section (3). The bit allocating section (3) receives information representing the block length from the block length determining section (1), and adopts a varied psychoacoustic characteristic according to the block length. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The voice over data component of a personal communications system enables the operator to simultaneously transmit voice and data communication to a remote site. This voice over data function dynamically allocates data bandwidth over the telephone line depending on the demands of the voice grade digitized signal. The user may enter voice over data mode from a data transfer mode by lifting the handset of the telephone connected to the modem. The off-hook condition is sensed and software sends a supervisory packet to the remote site to invoke voice-over-data mode. The remote telephone will simulate a ring to alert the remote user, and the local telephone will simulate a ringback to inform the caller that the remote unit is responding.

Abstract: A system for spectroscopic imaging of bodily tissue in which a scintillation screen and a charged coupled device (CCD) are used to accurately image selected tissue. Applications include the imaging of radionuclide distributions within the human body or the use of a dual energy source to provide a dual photon bone densitometry apparatus that uses stationary or scanning acquisition techniques. An x-ray source generates x-rays which pass through a region of a subject's body, forming an x-ray image which reaches the scintillation screen. The scintillation screen reradiates a spatial intensity pattern corresponding to the image, the pattern being detected by a CCD sensor. The image is digitized by the sensor and processed by a controller before being stored as an electronic image. A dual energy x-ray source that delivers two different energy levels provides quantitative information regarding the object being imaged using dual photon absorptiometry techniques. Dual scintillation screens can be used to simultaneously generate images of low-energy and high-energy x-ray patterns. Each image is directed onto an associated respective CCD or amorphous silicon detector to generate individual electronic representations of the separate images.
