20080312917 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PREDICTIVELY QUANTIZING VOICED SPEECH - A method and apparatus for predictively quantizing voiced speech includes a parameter generator and a quantizer. The parameter generator is configured to extract parameters from frames of predictive speech such as voiced speech, and to transform the extracted information to a frequency-domain representation. The quantizer is configured to subtract a weighted sum of the parameters for previous frames from the parameter for the current frame. The quantizer is configured to quantize the difference value. A prototype extractor may be added to first extract a pitch period prototype to be processed by the parameter generator. | 12-18-2008 |
20090234644 | Low-complexity encoding/decoding of quantized MDCT spectrum in scalable speech and audio codecs - A scalable speech and audio codec is provided that implements combinatorial spectrum encoding. A residual signal is obtained from a Code Excited Linear Prediction (CELP)-based encoding layer, where the residual signal is a difference between an original audio signal and a reconstructed version of the original audio signal. The residual signal is transformed at a Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT)-type transform layer to obtain a corresponding transform spectrum having a plurality of spectral lines. The transform spectrum spectral lines are transformed using a combinatorial position coding technique. | 09-17-2009 |
20090304057 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF AN IN-BAND MODEM FOR DATA COMMUNICATIONS OVER DIGITAL WIRELESS COMMUNICATION NETWORKS - A system is provided for transmitting information through a speech codec (in-band) such as found in a wireless communication network. A modulator transforms the data into a spectrally noise-like signal based on the mapping of a shaped pulse to predetermined positions within a modulation frame, and the signal is efficiently encoded by a speech codec. A synchronization sequence provides modulation frame timing at the receiver and is detected based on analysis of a correlation peak pattern. A request/response protocol provides reliable transfer of data using message redundancy, retransmission, and/or robust modulation modes dependent on the communication channel conditions. | 12-10-2009 |

20100036668 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IMPROVED DETECTION OF RATE ERRORS IN VARIABLE RATE RECEIVERS - A system and method for detection of rate determination algorithm errors in variable rate communications system receivers. The disclosed embodiments prevent rate determination algorithm errors from causing audible artifacts such as screeches or beeps. The disclosed system and method detects frames with incorrectly determined data rates and performs frame erasure processing and/or memory state clean up to prevent propagation of distortion across multiple frames. Frames with incorrectly determined data rates are detected by checking illegal rate transitions, reserved bits, validating unused filter type bit combinations and analyzing relationships between fixed code-book gains and linear prediction coefficient gains. | 02-11-2010 |
20100174539 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR VECTOR QUANTIZATION CODEBOOK SEARCH - A vector quantization codebook search method and apparatus use support vector machines (“SVMs”) to compute a hyperplane, where the hyperplane is used to separate codebook elements into a plurality of bins. During execution, a controller determines which of the plurality of bins contains a desired codebook element, and then searches the determined bin. Codebook search complexity is reduced and an exhaustive codebook search is selectively avoided. | 07-08-2010 |
20150062434 | SYSTEMS, DEVICES AND METHODS FOR DISPLAYING PICTURES IN A PICTURE - Systems, devices, and methods of displaying and/or recording multiple pictures in a picture (PIP) on the same display of a digital display device are disclosed. The PIPs can show objects from the main field view of the display device, such as a front camera lens, as well as objects from a different field of view, such as a back camera lens. The PIPs can further track the objects that are being displayed. | 03-05-2015 |
