Abstract: FREQUENCY BAND EXTENDING DEVICE AND METHOD, ENCODING DEVICE AND 
METHOD, DECODING DEVICE AND METHOD, AND PROGRAM 
ABSTRACT 
The present invention relates to a decoding device and 
method, and a program, whereby music signals can be played 
with higher sound quality due to the extension of frequency 
bands.  
A bandpass filter 13 divides an input signal into multiple 
sub-band signals, a feature amount calculating circuit 14 
calculates feature amount using at least one of the multiple 
divided sub-band signals and the input signal, a high frequency 
sub-band power estimating circuit 15 calculates an estimated 
value of a high frequency sub-band power based on the 
calculated feature amount, a high frequency signal generating 
circuit 16 generates a high frequency signal component based on 
the multiple sub-band signals divided by the bandpass filter 
13, and the estimated value of the high frequency sub-band 
power calculated by the high frequency sub-band power 
estimating circuit 15. A frequency band extending device 10 
extends the frequency band of the input signal using a high 
frequency signal component. The present invention may be 
applied to a frequency band extending device, for example.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for the variable rate coding of a speech signal. An input speech signal is classified and an appropriate coding mode is selected based on this classification. For each classification, the coding mode that achieves the lowest bit rate with an acceptable quality of speech reproduction is selected. Low average bit rates arc achieved by only employing high fidelity modes (i.e., high bit rate, broadly applicable to different types of speech) during portions of the speech where this fidelity is required for acceptable output. Lower bit rate modes are used during portions of speech where these modes produce acceptable output. Input speech signal is classified into active and inactive regions. Active regions are further classified into voiced, unvoiced, and transient regions. Various coding modes are applied to active speech, depending upon the required level of fidelity. Coding modes may be utilized according to the strengths and weaknesses of each particular mode. The apparatus dynamically switches between these modes as the properties of the speech signal vary with time. And where appropriate, regions of speech arc modeled as pseudo-random noise, resulting in a significantly lower bit rate. This coding is used in a dynamic fashion whenever unvoiced speech or background noise is detected.

Abstract: A switching device comprising several input ports and several output ports, whereby each of the input ports is connectable to a corresponding switch adapter. At least one switch controller controls the routing of incoming data packets from the input ports to the output ports. For each output port a congestion controller is arranged which in operation, generates grant information which signals whether the switch adapters are allowed to send the data packet to the output port. For each of the input ports a data packet access controller marks a data packet as non-compliant if the packet was erroneously sent from said output port.

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved method for the biological production of 1,3-propanediol from a fermentable carbon source in a single microorganism. In one aspect of the present invention, an improved process for the conversion of glucose to 1,3-propanediol is achieved by the use of an E. coli transformed with the Klebsiella pneumoniae dha regulon genes dhaR, orfY, dhaT, orfX, orfW, dhaB1, dhaB2, dhaB3, and orfZ, all these genes arranged in the same genetic organization as found in wild type Klebsiella pneumoniae. In another aspect of the present invention, an improved process for the production of 1,3-propanediol from glucose using a recombinant E. coli containing genes encoding a G3PDH, a G3P phosphatase, a dehydratase, and a dehydratase reactivation factor compared to an identical process using a recombinant E. coli containing genes encoding a G3PDH, a G3P phosphatase, a dehydratase, a dehydratase reactivation factor and a 1,3-propanediol oxidoreductase (dhaT). The dramatically improved process relies on the presence in E. coli of a gene encoding a non-specific catalytic activity sufficient to convert 3-hydroxypropionaldehyde to 1,3-propanediol.

Abstract: A method of adjusting the N components of an N component color signal (such as the 3 components of an RGB color signal) with respect to color temperature of illuminating light when imaging a colored subject, comprising the step of computing the difference between each of the components of the color signal for different temperatures of illuminating light, using an algorithm based on the spectral sensitivity of the imaging means and Planck's equation defining black body illumination to obtain N components whose values are independent of the color temperature of the illuminating light. Normalisation of the adjusted values renders the values independent of intensity of illumination and can also reduce the processing time for further processing of the signals. A technique for compensating for gamma correction which is commonly built in cameras, is disclosed.

Abstract: A method for selectively maintaining a compression state and applying a compression technique after a PPP renegotiation on a U m  interface of a wireless communication network. A communication device (104) receives packetized data transmitted from a terminal device (102) which is coupled to the communication device via an R m  interface. The communication device determines (S315) whether the received packetized data comprises compressed or uncompressed data. Upon determining that the received packetized data comprises compressed data, the communication device determines (S340) whether connection information exceeds a highest numbered decompression slot from a plurality of decompression slots on said U m  interface. The communication device sets up (S330) a local decompression slot, in the communication device, which corresponds to the connection information in order to maintain said compressionsate, wherein the local decompression slot is set up in response to determining (S325) that the connection information exceeds the highest-numbered decompression slot. The communication device decompresses (S350) the compressed packetized data when it receives compressed packetized data containing said connection information.
