Title: Method for testing the operation of transmission links for telecommunication signals
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1992-12-02
Abstract: A method is described for testing the operation of transmission links for telecommunications signals in a telephone network, with which the signals of an exchange are fed in as analog signals, are transmitted in a data stream as digital signals between a system unit of the exchange and at least one subscriber and are fed once more as analog signals at the subscriber end from a system unit of the subscriber to a terminal of the subscriber. A transformer with a hybrid circuit, and also A/D converters, a control block and a line codec are provided in both system units between the analog and digital interfaces. A transmitter and a receiver for digital signals are connected in the control block of at least one of the system units to the transmission link of one transmission direction. When the link is checked and an associated activation of the transmitter performed, the transmission link for the data stream of the digital signals is interrupted and at least the hybrid circuit of the system unit whose transmitter is activated is simultaneously disconnected from the analog interface.

Title: Image forming apparatus and developer for developing electrostatic images.
Inventor: OHNO MANABU
IPC: G03G15/08
Filed: 1990-07-27
Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a member to be charged for carrying an electrostatic image, a contact-charging means for charging the member to be charged in contact with the member to be charged, and a developing means for developing the electrostatic image carried on the member to be charged. The developing means includes a developer for developing the electrostatic image comprising a toner and hydrophobic inorganic fine powder. The hydrophobic inorganic fine powder not only improves the fluidity of the developer and adjusts the chargeability of the developer but also prevents difficulties due to interaction between the member to be charged and the contact charging means in the presence of residual developer, such as damages of the member to be charged and toner-sticking onto the member to be charged. <IMAGE>

Abstract: There is a high calculational need running processes for real
time decompression of coded picture-, video- and film
information. Known decoder require a central processor (CPU)
or specialised processors having a plurality of multiplier.
The disclosed decoder provides an efficient implementation of
the functions requiring an optimised processor comprising one
multiplier having a minimized chip area. 
In the invention the processes decoding, frame
reconstruction, block to raster conversion and color space
conversion are combined using concurrent processing and
resource sharing technics. This way the processes IQ, IDCT,
FR and optional CSC are able to use one specialised processor
comprising only one multiplier and further elements which are
no multiplier. The processor comprising process control means
independently each other controlling the processes for
decompression.

Abstract: In a speech encoder, a gain codebook switching
circuit is supplied with short-term prediction gains from
a short-term prediction gain calculator circuit and with
mode information through an input terminal and compares
the short-term prediction gains with a predetermined
threshold value when the mode information indicates a
predetermined mode. As a result of comparison, the gain
codebook switching circuit produces gain codebook
switching information which is delivered to a gain
quantizer circuit. The gain codebook quantizer circuit
is supplied with adaptive code vectors, excitation code
vectors, impulse response information, and the gain
codebook switching information, and gain code vectors
from a particular gain codebook connected to one of a
plurality of input terminals that is selected by the gain
codebook switching information. For the excitation code
vectors being selected, the gain quantizer circuit
selects combinations of the excitation code vectors and
the gain code vectors in the gain codebook selected by
the gain codebook switching information.

Abstract: A speech compression system called "Transform Predictive Coding", or TPC,
provides for encoding 7 kHz wideband speech (16 kHz sampling) at a target bit-rate range
of 16 to 32 kb/s (1 to 2 bits/sample). The system uses short-term and long-term
prediction to remove the redundancy in speech. A prediction residual is transformed and
coded in the frequency domain to take advantage of knowledge in human auditory
perception. The TPC coder uses only open-loop quantization and therefore has a fairly
low complexity. The speech quality of TPC is essentially transparent at 32 kb/s, very
good at 24 kb/s, and acceptable at 16 kb/s.

IPC: G06F3/06

Abstract: An apparatus (10,11,12,60,61,62,63) for generating parity
blocks in a RAID system includes a PRAM control unit (12,62),
two parity memories (10,11,60,61) each coupled to the PRAM control unit
(12,62), and in several alternative embodiments, a valid contents memory (63)
for tracking the contents of the parity memories (10,11,60,61). Parity blocks
are generated by performing an exclusive OR operation between all of the
corresponding data words in the data blocks of the stripe. The apparatus
(10,11,12,60,61,62,63) stores unmodified data words of the first data block
transferred into one of the parity memories (10,11,60,61). For subsequently
transferred data blocks, the apparatus (10,11,12,60,61,62,63) generates
parity blocks by performing successive exclusive OR operations between data
words in data blocks of the stripe and the corresponding parity generation data
words stored in one of the parity memories (10,11,60,61) as the data words
are transferred over a bus (4,51) internal to the RAID system. As successive
data blocks of the stripe are transferred over the bus (4, 51), the results of the
exclusive OR operations are alternately stored in the two parity memories
(10,11,60,61). Alternately dedicating one parity memory (10,11,60,61) for
storing the results of the exclusive OR operation which will be performed and
one parity memory (10,11,60,61) from which the results of the previous
exclusive OR operation are loaded allows computation of the parity block to be
performed at a higher rate than configurations which use a single parity
memory.
