    Abstract: An energy-based pattern recognition algorithm receives the input frames of an audio signal and a test frame sequence and returns a best match in the audio signal to the given test frame sequence. The energy of each input frame is computed and input frames for which the energy is both within a predetermined degree of closeness to the local maximum energy within the test frame sequence and a local maximum within a respective neighborhood of adjacent frames are identified as probable matches. The difference between overall energy for frames neighboring the remaining probable matches and the test frame sequence is computed as a percentage. The best match is selected based on a weighted combination of difference between local maximum energies and minimum percent deviation in overall energy. Local signal characteristic matching may be employed, with weighting, to refine matching.

    Abstract: A multi-tone synchronous collision resolution system permits communication nodes within a MANET to contend simultaneously for a plurality of available channels. The communication nodes contend for access using a synchronous signaling mechanism that utilizes multiple tones in a synchronous manner to resolve contentions. Contentions are arbitrated locally, and a surviving subset of communication nodes is selected. The communication nodes of the surviving subset then transmit data packets simultaneously across the available communication channels.

    Abstract: A protection layer is coated or otherwise formed over the interconnect structure. The interconnect structure includes a metal line (such as top and bottom metal layers connected by a metal via) and a low-K material. The protection layer includes a vertically aligned dielectric or other material dispersed with carbon nanotubes. The protection layer could include one or multiple layers of carbon nanotubes, and the carbon nanotubes could have any suitable dispersion, alignment, and pattern in each layer of the protection layer. Among other things, the carbon nanotubes help to reduce or prevent damage to the interconnect structure, such as by reducing or preventing the collapse of the low-K material or delamination between the metal line and the low-K material.
