Publication number: 20090316580Abstract: An improved method and system for the determination of jitter buffers enables the generation of buffers having sizes and delays such that, as designed, the buffers capture a substantial majority of packets while not being resource intensive. The present methods and systems provide for improved jitter buffer management by deriving playout buffer adjustments from a plurality of variances, centered around a distribution peak, or mean average delay. The playout buffer monitor uses the buffer adjustments, in size and delay, to select, store and playout packets at their adjusted playout time. The present invention may be employed in a media gateway that enables data communications among heterogenous networks and may be specifically deployed to manage jitter experienced in the course of receiving packetized data and processing the data for further transmission through a packet-based or circuit-switched network.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 8, 2009Publication date: December 24, 2009Inventors: Jon Laurent Pang, Mohammad Usman, Shoab Ahmad Khan, Muhammad Mohsin Rahmatullah

Publication number: 20070036345Abstract: The present invention provides for adaptive filters that have improved computational and memory bandwidth proprieties. When applied to telecommunication applications, the present invention additionally provides for improved methods and systems of canceling echoes. In one embodiment of the adaptive filter of the present invention, a filter, preferably an adaptive finite impulse response (FIR) filter, of an appropriate length, N, is chosen. Once the filter is chosen, convergence is achieved and the filter is converted to an infinite impulse response (IIR) filter. In the course of operation, data is received from an input source and used to adapt the zeroes of the IIR filter using the least means square (LMS) approach, keeping the poles fixed. The adaptation process generates a set of converged filter coefficients that are then applied to the input signal to create a modified signal used to filter the data.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 27, 2006Publication date: February 15, 2007Inventors: Mohammad Usman, Jon Pang, Amjad Luna, Imtinan Elahi

When applied to telecommunication applications, the present invention additionally provides for improved methods and systems of canceling echoes. In one embodiment of the adaptive filter of the present invention, a filter, preferably an adaptive finite impulse response (FIR) filter, of an appropriate length, N, is chosen. Once the filter is chosen, convergence is achieved using a convergence process. With convergence complete, the total energy of the filter coefficients is computed and two energy thresholds, a first energy threshold and a second energy threshold, are set relative to the computed total energy. Using the set energy thresholds, new filter coefficients are determined by relating the starting filter coefficient with the first energy threshold and the end filter coefficient with the second energy threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2001Publication date: April 24, 2003Inventors: Mohammad Usman, Jon Laurent Pang, Amjad Luna, Imtinan Elahi

Publication number: 20030005009Abstract: An adaptive filter based on a recursive algorithm with an adaptive step size is described. The recursive algorithm provides relatively fast convergence without undue computational overhead. In one embodiment, the recursive algorithm has an update similar to LMS where a first gradient is used to compute new filter weights using an adaptation factor. The adaptation factor is computed at each step using one or more estimated gradients. In one embodiment, the gradients are estimated in a region near the current set of filter weights. In one embodiment, the adaptive filter algorithm is used in an echo canceller to reduce the effect of line echo in a modem.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2001Publication date: January 2, 2003Inventor: Mohammad Usman

Publication number: 20020056133Abstract: A communication system, such as a digital cable network, achieves synchronization using data rate synchronization, clock frequency synchronization, or clock recovery synchronization techniques. The communication system includes a conversion clock at a transmitter and a conversion clock at a receiver. The data rate synchronization techniques adjust data rates by resampling digital data sent from the transmitter to the receiver to compensate for frequency variations in the conversion clocks. The clock frequency synchronization techniques use time stamps to adjust the receiver conversion clock frequency to substantially match the transmitter conversion clock frequency. The clock recovery techniques use a reference clock to adjust the transmitter conversion clock frequency and the receiver conversion clock frequency to be approximately the same.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2001Publication date: May 9, 2002Inventors: Danny Fung, Mohammad Usman

Publication number: 20010055354Abstract: A communication system adjusts data rate to compensate for frequency variations in conversion clocks. The communication system includes a conversion clock at a transmitter and a conversion clock at a receiver that advance respective counters. A difference between the counters controls a resampling of digital data sent from the transmitter to the receiver. The conversion clocks run independently of each other. The difference between the counters incremented by respective conversion clocks provides an indication of the difference in frequencies between the conversion clocks. The difference is used to determine the ratio at which digitized information is resampled at the receiver before being converted to the analog domain.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2001Publication date: December 27, 2001Inventors: Danny Fung, Mohammad Usman, Sherjil Ahmed
