Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for sensing the feeding of individual sheets of paper
in which the feeding of two or more overlapping sheets can be detected in a sheet
feeding apparatus for continuously transferring sheets of paper one by one along a
predetermined paper traveling path. The apparatus employs a support plate (33) which
allows the sheets of paper to slide, and a contact arm (41) adapted to contact the support
plate and to be moved upward by a height corresponding to the thickness of the
sheet of paper when the sheet of paper passes between the support plate and the
contact arm, instead of using expensive rollers, bearings or the like as a means
for sensing the thickness of a sheet of paper being fed. Accordingly, the rotational
angle of the contact arm enables the thickness of a sheet of paper being fed to be
sensed, so that the feeding of two or more overlapping sheets of paper between a
driving roller and a driven roller is always detected correctly and reliably even when
foreign matter is stuck to the rollers. Further, the paper feed sensing apparatus has
a simple structure and malfunctions less.

Abstract: A filter controller processes a decoded speech (DS) signal. The DS
signal has a spectral envelope including a first plurality of formant peaks
having different respective amplitudes. The controller produces, from the DS
signal, a spectrally-flattened DS signal that is a time-domain signal. The
spectrally-flattened time-domain DS signal has a spectral envelope including a
second plurality of formant peaks. Each of the second plurality of formant
peaks approximately coincides in frequency with a respective one of the first
plurality of formant peaks. Also, the second plurality of formant peaks have
approximately equal respective amplitudes. Next, the controller derives, from
the spectrally-flattened time-domain DS signal, a set of filter coefficients
representative of a filter response that is to be used to filter the DS signal.

Abstract: An audio encoder and decoder use architectures and techniques that improve the efficiency of quantization (e.g., weighting) and inverse quantization (e.g., inverse weighting) in audio coding and decoding. The described strategies include various techniques and tools, which can be used in combination or independently. For example, an audio encoder quantizes audio data in multiple channels, applying multiple channel-specific quantizer step modifiers, which give the encoder more control over balancing reconstruction quality between channels. The encoder also applies multiple quantization matrices and varies the resolution of the quantization matrices, which allows the encoder to use more resolution if overall quality is good and use less resolution if overall quality is poor. Finally, the encoder compresses one or more quantization matrices using temporal prediction to reduce the bitrate associated with the quantization matrices. An audio decoder performs corresponding inverse processing and decoding.

from the signal portion. A band extracting section (12) extracts
a plurality of frequency bands from the frequency spectrum derived
by the frequency transforming section (11), and outputs band
spectra which are respective frequency spectra of the extracted
frequency bands. A feature quantity calculating section (13)
calculates respective prescribed feature quantities of the band
spectra, and obtains each of the calculated prescribed feature
quantities as a feature quantity of the audio signal.

Then a comparator receives: 1) the high order virtual address component of the data page; 2) the high order virtual address component read from the associative memory entry; 3) the multi-digit validity count read from the associative memory entry; and 4) the multi-digit current validity count in a multi-digit counter in the CPU. If there is a full match, a switch issues the real page address read from the associative memory entry. Else, a page table is consulted to obtain the real address of the requested page, the associative memory being updated accordingly.

Abstract: In the present invention, a cable network upstream
from base stations is constructed in MPLS, and when a
radio communication terminal moves from an area of a base
station currently communicating with the terminal to an
adjacent area of another base station and enters a
diversity areas of the two base stations, a communication
network control apparatus provides paths of MPLS to the
two base stations, and copies a packet to the radio
communication terminal to forward to the two base stations.
Then, when the radio communication terminal moves out
of the diversity area and enters an area of either of
the base stations, the apparatus disconnects the path
(LSP) to the base station whose area the terminal moves
out of. It is thereby possible to assure QoS to the radio
communication terminal, while eliminating the packet loss
due to handover.

Abstract: An adaptive equalizer is described, which is capable of reducing the amount of calculation necessary for signal processing, thereby reducing power consumption. When the transmission path is such that the influence of fading is small, a control signal changes the correlation window size, and prevents a matrix operator (103) from performing a calculation. As a result, it is possible to reduce the amount of calculation when the situation of the transmission path is relatively good.
