Patent number: 8824667Abstract: In one embodiment, an acoustic echo control (AEC) module receives an outgoing signal and an incoming signal, which, at various times, contains acoustic echo corresponding to the outgoing signal. The AEC module has a delay estimation block that estimates, in the time domain, the echo delay using an adaptive filtering technique. This delay estimation is used to align samples of the incoming signal having acoustic echo with the corresponding samples of the outgoing signal from which the acoustic echo originated. The AEC module determines whether or not samples of the incoming signal contain acoustic echo based on the aligned outgoing signal, and the determinations are applied to a hangover counter. The AEC module then suppresses acoustic echo in the incoming signal and adds comfort noise to the incoming signal. The amount of echo suppression performed is gradually increased or decreased based on comparisons of the counter to a hangover threshold.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2011Date of Patent: September 2, 2014Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Ivan Leonidovich Mazurenko, Dmitry Nikolaevich Babin, Denis Vassilevich Parfenov, Alexander Alexandrovich Petyushko, Alexander Markovic

Patent number: 8780983Abstract: A video transcoder for converting an encoded input video bit-stream having one spatial resolution into an encoded output video bit-stream having a lower spatial resolution, wherein learned statistics of intra-mode transcoding are used to constrain the search of intra modes for the output video bit-stream. The statistics of intra-mode transcoding can be gathered, e.g., by applying brute-force downsizing to a training set of video frames and then analyzing the observed intra-mode transcoding patterns to determine a transition-probability matrix for use during normal operation of the transcoder. The transition-probability matrix enables the transcoder to select appropriate intra modes for the output video bit-stream without performing a corresponding exhaustive full search, which advantageously reduces the computational complexity and processor load compared to those of a comparably performing prior-art video transcoder.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2011Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Ivan Leonidovich Mazurenko, Aleksey Alexandrovich Letunovskiy, Alexander Markovic, Denis Vassilevich Parfenov, Alexander Alexandrovich Petyushko

Patent number: 8761916Abstract: In one embodiment, a DSP having four arithmetic logic units (ALUs) and able to have two read/write operations per clock cycle performs silence detection and tone detection for data frames containing samples of an audio signal. The ALUs are used together in parallel to process the samples in the data frames received by the DSP. A received data frame is filtered by the silence detection so that substantially silent frames are dropped and non-silent frames are further processed. In the tone detection, a filtered data frame is processed, four samples at a time, to determine the power of the signal at a given frequency, where the power determination is used to determine whether a given tone (i.e., a signal at a given frequency) is present in the data frame.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2009Date of Patent: June 24, 2014Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Aleksey Alexandrovich Letunovskiy, Ilya Viktorovich Lyalin, Alexander Markovic, Ivan Leonidovich Mazurenko, Andrey Anatolevich Nikitin

Patent number: 8731068Abstract: A video transcoder for converting a compressed input video bit-stream having one spatial resolution into a compressed output video bit-stream having a different spatial resolution in a manner that enables the transcoder to dynamically change the amount of computational resources allocated to the conversion process. In one embodiment, the video transcoder has a plurality of configurable processing paths whose configuration determines the amount of allocated computational resources. Exemplary processing-path configuration changes may include, but are not limited to engaging or disengaging a processing path, redirecting a data flow from flowing through one processing path to flowing through another processing path, and attaching or detaching one or more processing modules to an engaged processing path.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2011Date of Patent: May 20, 2014Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Denis Vassilevich Parfenov, Pavel Aleksandrovich Aliseychik, Aleksey Alexandrovich Letunovskiy, Alexander Markovic, Ivan Leonidovich Mazurenko, Denis Vladimirovich Parkhomenko

Patent number: 8711941Abstract: A video transcoder for converting an encoded input video bit-stream having one spatial resolution into an encoded output video bit-stream having a lower spatial resolution, wherein motion-vector dispersion observed at the higher spatial resolution is quantified and used to configure the motion-vector search at the lower spatial resolution. For example, for video-frame areas characterized by relatively low motion-vector dispersion values, the motion-vector search may be performed over a relatively small vector space and with the use of fewer search patterns and/or hierarchical search levels. These constraints enable the transcoder to find appropriate motion vectors for inter-prediction coding without having to perform an exhaustive motion-vector search for these video-frame areas, which advantageously reduces the computational complexity and processor load compared to those of a comparably performing prior-art video transcoder.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2011Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Aleksey Alexandrovich Letunovskiy, Alexander Markovic, Ivan Leonidovich Mazurenko, Denis Vassilevich Parfenov, Alexander Alexandrovich Petyushko

Patent number: 8452006Abstract: In one embodiment, a cryptography processor compatible with the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) for encrypting and decrypting has a memory storing each element of an AES State, normally 8-bit long, in a corresponding memory space that is at least 9 bits long. Using the larger memory spaces, the processor performs modified AES transformations on the State. A modified column-mixing transformation uses bit-shifting and XOR operations, thereby avoiding some multiplications and modulo reductions and resulting in some 9-bit State elements. A modified byte-substitution transformation uses a 512-element look-up table to accommodate 9-bit inputs. The modified byte-substitution transformation is combined with a modified row-shifting transformation. The memory has data registers each holding four State elements.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2010Date of Patent: May 28, 2013Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Dmitriy Vladimirovich Alekseev, Alexei Vladimirovich Galatenko, Aleksey Alexandrovich Letunovskiy, Alexander Markovic, Andrey Anatolevich Nikitin

Patent number: 8447988Abstract: In certain embodiments, a digital signal processor (DSP) has multiple arithmetic logic units and a register module. The DSP is adapted to generate a message digest H from a message M in accordance with the SHA-1 standard, where M includes N blocks M(i), i=1, . . . , N, and the processing of each block M(i) includes t iterations of processing words of message schedule {Wt}. In each iteration possible, the DSP uses free operations to precalculate Wt and working variable values for use in the next iteration. In addition, in each iteration possible, the DSP rotates the registers associated with particular working variables to reduce operations that merely copy unchanged values from one register to another.Type: GrantFiled: September 16, 2009Date of Patent: May 21, 2013Assignee: LSI CorporationInventors: Dmitriy Vladimirovich Alekseev, Alexei Vladimirovich Galatenko, Ilya Viktorovich Lyalin, Alexander Markovic, Denis Vassilevich Parfenov
