20090252234 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MONITORING IMPULSE NOISE - Systems and methods for monitoring impulse noise are described. At least one embodiment is a method, which comprises detecting whether impulse noise is present and in response to detecting the presence of impulse noise, performing time domain analysis to determine whether one or more impulse noise sources are present based on minimum interarrival time and maximum impulse length. The method further includes performing frequency domain analysis to estimate frequencies associated with the one or more impulse noise sources and based on the time domain analysis and frequency domain analysis, providing a total number of impulse noise sources and frequencies associated with the impulse noise sources. In this regard, the embodiments described herein provide dual-speed monitoring of impulse noise in the form of short-term and long-term monitoring. The use of dual-speed monitoring ensures that dynamic changes in the impulse noise environment are quickly addressed and also ensures better characterization of multiple impulse noise sources in order to provide better impulse noise protection. | 10-08-2009 |
20100158137 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SUPPRESSING NOISE IN RECEIVER - A receiver suppresses noise simultaneously using a noise suppressor and an automatic gain controller (AGC). The receiver divides a received signal into an audio period and a non-audio period, analyzes whether the noise characteristic of the non-audio period corresponds to a non-static noise or a static noise, and if the noise characteristic corresponds to the static noise, analyzes whether the static noise is caused by a network or a transmitter side terminal. In accordance with the analyzed noise characteristic, the noise suppressor firstly suppresses the noise by determining the noise suppressing intensity, and sends a signal, from which the noise has been firstly suppressed, to the AGC. The AGC secondly suppresses the noise included in the signal. In this case, the threshold value of the AGC is controlled in real time in accordance with the noise characteristic. Also, since the noise level is lowered by the first noise suppressing, the threshold value of the AGC can be set to a lower value, and thus a swing phenomenon and a radiotelegraph phenomenon can be reduced. | 06-24-2010 |

20120183082 | Distortion and aliasing reduction for digital to analog conversion - Distortion and aliasing reduction for digital to analog conversion. Synthesis of one or more distortion terms made based on a digital signal (e.g., one or more digital codewords) is performed in accordance with digital to analog conversion. The one or more distortion terms may correspond to aliased higher-order harmonics, distortion, nonlinearities, clipping, etc. Such distortion terms may be known a priori, such as based upon particular characteristics of a given device, operational history, etc. Alternatively, such distortion terms may be determined based upon operation of a device and/or based upon an analog signal generated from the analog to conversion process. For example, frequency selective measurements made based on an analog signal generated from the digital to analog conversion may be used for determination of and/or adaptation of the one or more distortion terms. One or more DACs may be employed within various architectures operative to perform digital to analog conversion. | 07-19-2012 |
