Abstract: A method for use by a speech decoder in handling bad frames received over a communications channel a method in which the effects of bad frames are concealed by replacing the values of the spectral parameters of the bad frames (a bad frame being either a corrupted frame or a lost frame) with values based on an at least partly adaptive mean of recently received good frames, but in case of a corrupted frame (as opposed to a lost frame), using the bad frame itself if the bad frame meets a predetermined criterion. The aim of concealment is to find the most suitable parameters for the bad frame so that subjective quality of the synthesized speech is as high as possible.

Abstract: Two or more layers, at least one in thermoplastic, are fed continuously to an ultrasonic welding station (6) where a rotary anvil (8) is turned relative to a sonotrode (7). Layers are united in a single stage by ultrasonic welding, simultaneously weakening the weld (28) into a location of intentional separation. An Independent claim is included for corresponding equipment. The multilayer product is also claimed. Preferred features: At the site of welding, tensile strength is less than that of the non-welded layers. Degree of weakening is controlled by varying the gap (14) between sonotrode and anvil. Speed of welding is 70-200 m/min, preferably 150-200 m/min. Anvil rotation speed corresponds approximately with that of sheet feed, during welding. It does not, between welding operations. During one complete turn of the anvil, separate welding operations are carried out. The weld seam meanders. The anvil is heated. Near the welding point, layers are detachably connected by ultrasonic welding, at an offset consolidation point. This takes place at the same time as welding. Such stations precede and follow the welding location. The consolidation seam meanders. Following ultrasonic welding, the material is parted into separate pieces, after which the welded layers remain connected to each other.

Abstract: Techniques to more efficiently control the transmit power for a data transmission that uses a number of formats (e.g., rates, transport formats). Different formats for a given data channel (e.g., transport channel) may require different target SNIRs to achieved a particular BLER. In one aspect, individual target BLER may be specified for each format of each data channel. In another aspect, various power control schemes are provided to achieve different target SNIRs for different formats. In a first power control scheme, multiple individual outer loops are maintained for multiple formats. For each format, its associated outer loop attempts to set the target SNIR such that the target BLER specified for that format is achieved. In a second power control scheme, multiple individual outer loops are maintained and the base station further applies different adjustments to the transmit power levels for different formats.
