    摘要: An enhanced digital beamformer (EDBF) (210, FIG. 2) is provided for use in a transceiver subsystem (200, FIG. 2) for mitigating interference and increasing the frequency reuse factor in communication systems. The EDBF is used to produce wide nulls (520, FIG. 5) in at least one steerable antenna beam pattern. By directing wide nulls at undesired signals, the EDBF provides a more efficient processing of antenna beam patterns in communication systems. The EDBF is used in geostationary satellites, non-geostationary satellites, and terrestrial communication devices. The EDBF combines a unique algorithm, a special processor, and an array antenna to significantly improve the capacity of current and future communication systems, while remaining compatible with existing modulation techniques.

    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.

    摘要: 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.

An instruction, selected from a set of instructions, is decoded by a control unit (234) to configure the computer processor to perform operations on one or more data streams. Mathematical operations that can be performed by the processor include matrix multiplication, matrix-inversion, fast Fourier transforms (FFT), auto-correlation, cross-correlation, discrete cosine transforms (DCT), polynomial equations, and difference equations in general, such as those used to approximate infinite impulse response (IIR) and finite impulse response (FIR) filters.
