Abstract: There are provided a data transmitter for sequentially transmitting data to which error correcting codes are added, and a data receiver for returning a retransmission request signal if the received data has errors which cannot be corrected. The data transmitter does not confirm that the retransmission request signal related to the transmitted data is received and data are consecutively transmitted from a FIFO memory in a pipeline fashion while holding the transmitted data in a data latch. The data receiver sequentially stores the received data in the FIFO memory on a receiving end in a pipeline fashion. In the case where the retransmission request signal is transmitted from the data receiver, the data transmitter immediately transmits retransmission data which has been prepared in the data latch.

Abstract: A method for compressing video movie data to a specified target size using intraframe and interframe compression schemes. In intraframe compression, a frame of the movie is compressed by comparing adjacent pixels within the same frame. In contrast, interframe compression compresses by comparing similarly situated pixels of adjacent frames. The method begins by compressing the first frame of the video movie using intraframe compression. The first stage of the intraframe compression process does not degrade the quality of the original data,  e.g ., the method uses run length encoding based on the pixels' color values to compress the video data. However, in circumstances where lossless compression is not sufficient, the method utilizes a threshold value, or tolerance, to achieve further compression. In these cases, if the color variance between pixels is less than or equal to the tolerance, the method will encode the two pixels using a single color value -- otherwise, the method will encode the two pixels using different color values. The method increases or decreases the tolerance to achieve compression within the target range. In cases where compression within the target range results in an image of unacceptable quality, the method will split the raw data in half and compress each portion of data separately. Frames after the first frame are generally compressed using a combination of intraframe and interframe compression. Additionally, the method periodically encodes frames using intraframe compression only in order to enhance random frame access.

Abstract: In end stations (1) for wire telecommunication, network managers pose different requirements on the terminating impedance (Z s ) of the end station (1) for terminating the line to which the end station (1) is connected. 
     For satisfying these requirements there is proposed to provide that the terminating impedance (Z s ) of the end station (1) can be matched with a predetermined line impedance (Z₁) by means of a control arrangement (5). The control arrangement (5) thereto comprises an EEPROM (13) in which information for a control signal can be stored for biasing a line coupling arrangement (4) connected to the control arrangement (5), in which line coupling arrangement a variable terminating impedance (Z s ) which can be biased is realised, preferably in the form of a switched capacitor filter (23). As a result, when production is switched over to the production of end stations (1) for a specific network manager, the EEPROM (13) may be simply reprogrammed to have the end station (1) satisfy the network manager's requirements with respect to terminating impedance (Z s ).

Abstract: A method for modeling data traffic on a communication network according to a Client/Server paradigm is disclosed. The method includes the steps of extracting the model parameters from known or measured interactions between a client node running a particular application and a server node with no other activity on the network. The method is repeated for each nodal configuration and for each application until the traffic for each node-application combination has been modelled with no other load on the network. Scripts are created from the Paradigm parameters and are used in conjunction with a traffic generator to create discrete events simulating the traffic which would be generated from each node. The model will insure that the traffic generated by each traffic source will be adjusted as a function of the response of the network under the load created by all of the traffic loading the network.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of controlling an actuator of disk drive apparatus having an actuator controller arranged to move said actuator to seek a selected disk track. The control signals applied to the actuator controller are determined to cause the actuator to follow the desired velocity profile. Substantial coincidence with the desired profile can be achieved by utilising Fuzzy rules. Specifically, the control signals are determined for deceleration in dependence upon a deceleration constant, the actual velocity of the actuator, and a value determined by Fuzzy rules in dependence upon the difference between the actual velocity of the actuator and the desired velocity of the profile. This enables the track seeking time to be reduced with minimal overshoot at the target track. The said difference between actual and desired velocities is compared with a function of said actual velocity in order to initially cause a switch from acceleration to deceleration.

Abstract: A sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter (ADC) (80) includes first (81) and second (82) integrators, a quantizer (83) connected to an output of the second integrator (82), and a feedback circuit (84) connected to the output of the quantizer (83). In order to avoid the effects of delays through actual circuit elements, the feedback circuit (84) keeps the feedback signal to the first integrator (81) in a high-impedance state until the quantizer (83) resolves the output of the second integrator (82). Thus, the first integrator (81) avoids temporarily summing a possibly incorrect feedback signal. In addition, the feedback circuit (84) also keeps the first integrator (81) from integrating a sum of an input signal and the feedback signal until the feedback signal is driven to its correct state in response to the output of the quantizer (83). To accomplish these results, the feedback circuit (84) includes a compensation circuit (151) for continually determining when the quantizer (83) resolves.

On the lines, it is possible for high-frequency AC voltages to be influenced by external high-frequency electromagnetic fields, the amplitudes of which AC voltages are of similar order of magnitude and higher than the instantaneously applied line potential, as a result of which at least one (3) of the pn junctions, indirectly or directly connected to one line (01) and blocked in the working range, is forward-biased by the influenced high-frequency AC voltage in the negative half-cycle range, so that directional currents arise which inject minority currents into the semiconductor material surrounding the pn junction (3) in question, which minority currents are at least partly captured from at least one of the components of the monolithically integrated circuit and shift the working point thereof, which leads to destruction of the function of the electronic device. The instantaneous forward-biasing of the blocked pn junction (3) in the negative half-cycle range of the influenced high-frequency AC voltage is in this case prevented by means of a diode (5) in the line path. <IMAGE>
