Title: Restoration of correct cell sequence in atm system
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1990-12-10
Granted: 1993-08-12
Abstract: State of the art (not public): In order to load an ATM switching network as evenly as possible (even in the short term) and thereby minimise cost, the consecutive cells of one and the same connection are switched through to the exit via as many different paths as possible. 
<??>Technical problem: Reciprocal overtaking of consecutive cells must be avoided or corrected. 
<??>Fundamental principle: Each cell is held at the output until it is ensured that no preceding cell can still be temporarily stored in the switching network. Before the cell is forwarded, a check is carried out to ascertain whether, among the cells leaving the switching network at a later stage, a preceding cell is still present which is to be forwarded before it. 
<??>Implementation: Sequence numbers are assigned to the cells on the input side (either on an individual connection basis or not). On the output side, a buffer memory (1) is provided which is operated at least partially (1, ..., d) in the manner of a shift register and thereby produces a predefined delay. Before the output of a cell, at least the part of the buffer memory which is operated in the manner of a shift register is interrogated to ascertain whether a cell registered at a later stage is to be output earlier. If it is, the two cells are exchanged.

Abstract: The drive-shaft (2), supporting the rotor (5), within the stator (8), is carried on two bearings mounted, one (3) in a discoid end bracket (11), and another (4) in the center (12) of the motor end casing (17). One fan (24,25) is carried on the shaft end overhanging the latter bearing, and draws cooling air (F1) through a grill-covered (22) opening (18) in the end casing (17) into an air entry chamber (C). The outer (20) and inner (21) walls of the end casing form an annular chamber (V) leading directly into passages (31) traversing the stator (8). Air (F3) directed into these is discharged (F8) after cooling the stator iron core. The remainder (F2) of the total flow (F1) passes through apertures (26) in the inner end casing (21). Part of this (F4) traverses cooling passages (27) in the rotor core; the rest (F5) passes over the ends of the stator winding (9) then through the air-gap. The air-flow (F2) in this inner zone, assisted by a second fan (28,29) mounted on the drive-shaft next the rotor, is discharged (F7) alongside the outer zone discharge (F8). In a variant, outer and inner discharge orifices are kept well separated.

Title: Method for recognizing a spoken word in the presence of interfering speech
Inventor: SCHALK THOMAS B
IPC: G10L15/20
Filed: 1994-08-15
Granted: 1998-02-19
Abstract: A method for recognizing a spoken word in the presence of interfering speech, such as a system-generated voice prompt, begins by echo cancelling the voice prompt and any detected speech signal to produce a residual signal. Portions of the residual signal that have been most recently echo-cancelled are then continuously stored in a buffer. The energy in the residual signal is also continuously processed to determine onset of the spoken word. Upon detection of word onset, the portion of the residual signal then currently in the buffer is retained, the voice prompt is terminated, and the recognizer begins realtime recognition of subsequent portions of the residual signal. Upon detection of word completion, the method retrieves the portion of the residual signal that was retained in the buffer upon detection of word onset and performs recognition of that portion. The recognized portions of the word are then reconstructed to determine the spoken word.
