Patent EP-1679715-A1 (EP)
Inventor: RYU YOUNG SOO
IPC: G11B7/085
Filed: 2006-01-05
Abstract: A method for seeking a target position on a multi-layer disc is provided. When a target position seek operation requires a layer jump in an optical disc, a required horizontal movement direction for the optical pick-up is determined. If the optical pickup must move horizontally from the outer circumference to the inner circumference of the disc, the horizontal movement operation is performed first at the current layer, and then a layer jump operation is performed. Because the layer jump operation is performed at the inner circumference of the optical disc, where the optical pickup will not likely encounter a data area which includes location information, a target position seek operation which requires a jump between multiple layers of the disc can be precisely and rapidly performed.

Abstract: A block encoder flexibly encodes K codes to produce an encoded data block. The block encoder receives an unformatted block of 10 Gigabit Media Independent Interface (XGMII) data. The unformatted block of data includes data and/or K characters, both of which can be located in any position of the unformatted block. The block encoder inserts data characters into a first set of slots of the encoded data block. The block encoder encodes K characters to produce corresponding encoded K characters. Each encoded K character includes a link field, a position field and a recoded value field. The encoded K characters are inserted into a second set of slots of the encoded data block. A synchronization header is attached to the encoded data block to distinguish control blocks from pure data blocks. The header and encoded data block are subsequently scrambled in preparation for transmission.

Abstract: The application relates to voice processing cards and their application in systems where multiple cards supporting different protocols are operated. Each protocol type is provided by a card which requires its specific device driver. As a result an application manufacturer needs to handle multiple different device drivers. 
The problem is solved by a telephony card of the application which interfaces with a host based protocol stack. The protocol stack converts a new signalling protocol into an already supported signalling protocol and thereby avoids the need for a new device driver for the new protocol and limits thereby the number of device drivers an application manufacturer needs to handle. New signalling protocols in this respect are for example SS7, H.323 and SIP whereas an already supported signalling protocol is ITU-T Q.931.
