摘要:
A speech signal is sampled to form a sequence of speech data and segmented into segments. The envelope of each segment is detected to form an envelope segment. Each datum of the segment is divided by each datum of the envelope segment to form a de-envelope segment which is transformed into spectral components. Dominant frequencies are determined for the spectral components with greatest magnitudes. Envelope coefficients are generated by fitting a polynomial function to the segment. Phase parameters are generated representing a phase of each of the dominant spectral components. The dominant frequencies, the envelope coefficients and the phase parameters are generated as compressed speech data for each voiced segment. For each unvoiced segment, a carrier frequency, an amplitude and at least one sideband frequency of an amplitude modulation component are generated as the compressed speech data.

A method and system for an IIR filter are provided. A sequence of input signals is converted to a first sequence of log signals, while a sequence of feedback signals is converted to a second sequence of log signals. IIR filtering coefficients are then added to each sequence of log signals to generate a plurality of term signals. The term signals are then converted to inverse-log signals which are summed to produce an output signal. The log/inverse-log conversions of signals are based on estimating a log/inverse-log function using a second-order polynomial.

A converter, which may be used for implementing either logarithmic or inverse-logarithmic functions, includes a memory, a multiplier, and an adder. The memory stores a plurality of parameters which are derived using a least squares method to estimate a logarithmic or inverse-logarithmic function over a domain of input values.

A speech signal is sampled to form a sequence of speech data. The sequence of speech data is segmented into overlapping segments. Speech coefficients are generated by fitting each segment to a nonlinear predictive coding equation. The nonlinear predictive coding equation includes a linear predictive coding equation with linear terms, and additionally includes at least one cross term that is proportional to a product of two or more of the linear terms. If the segment is voiced, a sinusoidal term is included in the nonlinear predictive coding equation and sinusoidal parameters are generated. Otherwise, a noise term is included in the nonlinear predictive coding equation. The speech coefficients, a voiced bit, and, if the segment is voiced, the sinusoidal parameters are included as compressed speech data.

A digital log converter is provided which includes a comparator (10) and a log signal generator (20). Upon receiving a digital input signal (12), the comparator (10) determines whether an upper bit-slice of the input signal (12) equals zero. If the upper bit-slice is zero, the log signal generator (20) subtracts an offset from at least one parameter to generate a log signal (16); otherwise, the log signal generator (20) interpolates the at least one parameter and a lower bit-slice of the input signal (12) to generate the log signal (16).

A method and system for an L.sub.1 norm operation are provided. A sequence of input signals is distributed through a data pipeline to a programmable accumulator. The accumulator sums the input signals to generate an output signal. The L.sub.1 norm operation can be performed using the distance between two vectors.

A digital beam forming system includes an array of computing units (60-76) for weighting incoming signals and a plurality of summing processors (80-84) for generating output signals that represent weighted sums corresponding to rows within the array. The digital beam forming system can be incorporated in either a transmitter or receiver used in a radio frequency communications system.

A real-time video system which performs non-uniform interpolation between adjacent vertical scan lines is presented. The video system includes a converter, a memory, an enhanced-video circuit, and a sync generator. The video system decodes and digitizes an analog composite video signal, such as an NTSC, PAL, or SECAM signal, and generates a digital video signal having a greater number of horizontal scan lines than the analog video signal. The video system is programmable to allow a different number of scan lines in the output digital video signal.

The computer processor also includes a switch for providing processor outputs as feedback. An instruction, selected from a set of instructions, is decoded by the control unit to configure the computer processor to perform operations on a data stream.
摘要:
A video signal is converted into a coefficient signal of block coefficient signals for each frame in a video image. Each of the block coefficient signals represents the pixels in a pixel map block (420) with the coefficients in a hybrid polynomial. The hybrid polynomial contains discrete cosine terms, a constant term separated from the discrete cosine terms, and polynomial terms separated from the discrete cosine terms. Coefficient signals for selected frames only are transmitted to a receiving computer (130). The coefficient signals for the selected frames are converted to decompressed pixel map signals and the pixel map signals for unselected frames are interpolated using nonlinear interpolation. The decompressed pixel map signals and interpolated pixel map signals are ordered into an original frame sequence to produce a decompressed video signal.
