Title: Static electric discharge apparatus with active electrical circuit
Inventor: CUBBISON RICHARD JAMES JR
IPC: H05F3/04
Filed: 1989-10-30
Granted: 1991-01-10
Abstract: Apparatus for discharging static electricity from the human body by ionizing air and utilizing the flow of ions from the apparatus into the surrounding environment to discharge the body. The apparatus utilizes two power supplies (206, 207) to raise two embedded electrodes (201, 202) positioned in a horizontal plane different voltage potentials with respect to the body. The air is ionized by utilizing discharge electrodes (208, 209) of the opposite polarity positioned over each of the embedded electrodes which results in air ions being formed in a ion distribution above each embedded electrode. The embedded electrodes are positioned a predetermined distance from each other in the embedded plane. Within the region (214) between the embedded electrodes, the ions recombine to form air molecules. The ions in the distribution layers above each embedded electrode drift toward this region under attraction from each other. As the ions move, ions of the same polarity as the body are repelled into free air by virtue of the presence of the static charge on the body. In free air, they eventually drift to a grounding point within the environment. This expulsion of the ions of the same polarity as the body discharges the static electricity from the body.

Title: Method and apparatus for reproducing speech signals and method for transmitting the same
Inventor: NISHIGUCHI MASAYUKI
IPC: G10L19/087
Filed: 1996-06-19
Granted: 2000-07-06
Abstract: An encoding unit 2 divides speech signals entering an input terminal 10 in terms of frames as units and encodes the divided signals on the frame basis to output encoding parameters such as line spectral pair (LSP) parameters, pitch, voiced (V)/ unvoiced (UV) or spectral amplitude Am. The modified encoding parameter calculating unit 3 interpolates the encoding parameters for calculating modified encoding parameters associated with desired time points. A decoding unit 6 synthesizes sine waves and the noise based upon the modified encoding parameters and outputs the synthesized speech signals at an output terminal 37. Speed control can be achieved easily at an arbitrary rate over a wide range with high sound quality with the phoneme and the pitch remaining unchanged. <IMAGE>

Title: Dual processor error detection system
Inventor: CHANDRAN SRIKUMAR R
IPC: G06F11/18
Filed: 1986-05-07
Granted: 1988-01-14
Abstract: The present invention is an input/output controller for providing total data integrity for any single point failure. The I/O controller comprises a processor module having two microprocessors, an associated memory, a direct memory access module (<<DMA>>), and a processor support module (<<PSM>>); a device drive interface; and a channel interface. The two microprocessors are operated in lockstep as a dual modular redundant processor system. The processors provide true and complement, respectively, addresses, data and control strobes. The PSM compares the true and complement data to detect errors (i.e., corresponding data bits not being a true-complement pair) and generates parity protected data (and checks parity) on the data bus. The PSM also generates and checks dual railed control strobes and provides synchronization of all control strobes and interrupt signals to enable the true-complement pair of microprocessors to operate in lock-step. The DMA compares the redundant addresses from the processors to detect errors and to generate parity protected addresses (and check parity) on the address bus. The DMA also generates and checks bus arbitration signals and controls direct memory access. Self-checking checkers are used to check the various dual railed, true-complement pairs of signals to detect, locate and isolate faults. Miscompares between true-complement address, data and control signals and parity errors detected in reading program instructions from memory all are treated as fatal errors, which cause both processors to halt. Other types of errors are treated as nonfatal, which cause processor exceptions during which appropriate programming is executed to locate and isolate such errors.

Both the amplifier (102) and the voltage regulator (103) are isolated from the power conductor (108) by a FET switch (104) that is controlled by the microprocessor (105). The switch (104) is turned off, isolating the circuitry when the microprocessor (105) is transmitting. <IMAGE>
