    摘要: An adaptive asymmetry control circuit is described. Such a circuit may be used in magnetic recording applications, for example. The adaptive asymmetry control circuit uses a peak detector which supplies at regular intervals positive or negative signal peak values of an equalized sampled data stream. An asymmetry learning function generates a summation of N pairs of positive and negative signal peak values divided by N as an average signal asymmetry value. The average signal asymmetry value is divided by 2 in an optimal threshold function producing an optimal threshold value. Then a threshold detector, that uses the optimal threshold value as a threshold, slices the sampled data stream at regular intervals.

    摘要: A scheme for stereo and multi-channel synthesis of inter-channel correlation (ICC) (normalized cross-correlation) cues for parametric stereo and multi-channel coding. The scheme synthesizes ICC cues such that they approximate those of the original. For that purpose, diffuse audio channels are generated and mixed with the transmitted combined (e.g., sum) signal(s). The diffuse audio channels are preferably generated using relatively long filters with exponentially decaying Gaussian impulse responses. Such impulse responses generate diffuse sound similar to late reverberation. An alternative implementation for reduced computational complexity is proposed, where inter-channel level difference (ICLD), inter-channel time difference (ICTD), and ICC synthesis are all carried out in the domain of a single short-time Fourier transform (STFT), including the filtering for diffuse sound generation.

    摘要: A set-associative architecture (IPStash) restricts routing table prefixes to a limited number of lengths using a controlled, prefix-expansion technique. Since this inflates the routing tables, skewed associativity can be used to increase the effective capacity of IPStash. In addition, pruning of redundant entries can be applied to decrease the size of the expanded tables. Compared to previous proposals, IPStash does not require any complicated routing table transformations but, more importantly, it makes incremental updates to the routing tables effortless. IPStash is also easily expandable. IPStash is both fast and power-efficient compared to TCAMs. Specifically, IPStash devices built in the same technology as TCAMs can run at speeds in excess of 600 MHz, offer more than twice the search throughput (>200 Msps), and consume up to 35 % less power (for the same throughput) than the best commercially available TCAMs when tested with real routing tables and IP traffic.

    摘要: Apparatus and method to allow retrieval of voice messages deleted from the voice message memory of a voice messaging system. A voice messaging system such as a telephone answering device includes a deleted voice message memory for storing voice messages deleted from the voice message memory. The deleted voice messages stored in the deleted voice message memory are retrievable by the user for review subject to rules for permanent deletion of the deleted voice messages (e.g., after a period of time, when the deleted voice message memory approaches capacity, periodically, etc.).

    摘要: A (e.g., hard-disk drive (HD)) system supports reader standby mode and/or writer standby mode. For reader standby mode, reader circuitry in the system's preamplifier is transitioned to a low-power mode during write operations. To provide quick transition from write mode to read mode, the reader circuitry is transitioned to pre-read mode before the end of the write operation. For writer standby mode, the preamplifier's writer circuitry is transitioned to a low-power mode during read operations. To provide quick transition from read mode to write mode, the writer circuitry is transitioned to a pre-write mode before the end of the read operation. The availability of a reader standby mode during write operations and a writer standby mode during read operations reduces power consumption as compared to HD systems that leave the reader circuitry in pre-read mode throughout each write operation and the writer circuitry in pre-write mode throughout each read operation.

    摘要: A microphone array-based audio system that supports representations of auditory scenes using second-order (or higher) harmonic expansions based on the audio signals generated by the microphone array. In one embodiment, a plurality of audio sensors are mounted on the surface of an acoustically rigid sphere. The number and location of the audio sensors on the sphere are designed to enable the audio signals generated by those sensors to be decomposed into a set of eigenbeams having at least one eigenbeam of order two (or higher). Beamforming (e.g., steering, weighting, and summing) can then be applied to the resulting eigenbeam outputs to generate one or more channels of audio signals that can be utilized to accurately render an auditory scene. Alternative embodiments include using shapes other than spheres, using acoustically soft spheres and/or positioning audio sensors in two or more concentric patterns.
