    Abstract: A multiple coding apparatus comprises a first encoder for encoding a plurality of input sequences in parallel so as to generate a plurality of output coded sequences in parallel while adding an error-correcting bit sequence to each of the plurality of input sequences. An interleaving circuit interleaves the plurality of output coded sequences applied thereto in parallel from the first encoder without having to use any memory. The interleaving circuit permutes the plurality of input sequences on a bit-by-bit or symbol-by-symbol basis so as to generate a plurality of interleaved coded sequences in parallel. A second encoder then encodes the plurality of interleaved coded sequences applied thereto in parallel from the interleaving circuit so as to generate a plurality of output coded sequences in parallel while adding an error-correcting bit sequence to each of the plurality of interleaved coded sequences.

  • Publication number: 20010021203
    Abstract: The data transmission and reception system comprises a data transmitter and a data receiver. The data transmitter generates and transmits a high-speed serial signal through a transmission path and the data receiver receives the serial signal. The data transmitter, when forming the frame for every tributary signal, inserts into the frame a frame bit indicating a boundary of the frame and, after having formed the frame, performs only a bit synchronization with respect to every tributary signal. On the other hand, the data receiver, for a respective tributary signal, stores a data indicated by the tributary signal and, in a timing based on a detection of the frame bit of the tributary signal and a reference frame pulse commonly issued between tributary signals, outputs the stored data to thereby perform the tributary synchronization.

  • Patent number: 5507618
    Abstract: This invention provides a package-type oil-cooled air compressor in which the housing is divided into two chambers, in one of which, a first chamber, are located the compressor unit, motor used to drive the compressor unit, air intake filter and intake regulator valve connected to the compressor unit, and in the other of which, a second chamber, are located the oil cooler and sirocco fan. An air duct connects the two chambers. Air outlets are formed in each of the chambers and an air inlet is formed in the second chamber. Air is introduced through the rotation of the sirocco fan into the second chamber via the air inlet. A portion of this air is directed into the first chamber via the air duct where a part is used to supply the compressor unit and the remainder flows over the components located in the first chamber to cool them and leaves via the outlet formed in the first chamber.

  • Patent number: 5452305
    Abstract: A first frame counter generates a position signal for an input subframe address which is synchronized with an input clock signal based on an input frame phase signal. The first frame counter also generates a write address enabling signal. A subframe type detector generates a write/read control signal based on an input frame signal. Depending upon the position signal for the input subframe address, the write address enabling signal and the write/read control signal, a first subframe phase synchronization device and a second to nth subframe phase synchronization device control a buffer corresponding to 1/m of a frame data amount by a write address, where m (n>=m) is a multiplexing number. The first subframe phase synchronization device and the second to mth subframe phase synchronization device writes data corresponding to a first to mth input subframe signal based on the input frame signal into a buffer respectively. An input relative phase is synchronized with a standard relative phase.
