  • Patent number: 5235670
    Abstract: The generation of multipulse excitation codes by digitizing an original speech, partitioning the digitized signal into a number of samples, pre-emphasizing the samples, producing linear predictive reflection coefficients from said samples, quantizing these reflection coefficients, converting the quantized reflection coefficients to spectral coefficients and subjecting the spectral coefficients to pitch analysis to obtain a spectral residual signal.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5134711
    Abstract: A programmable memory system that interfaces with a computer's control and data manipulation units, and is capable of performing the manipulation, bookkeeping, and checking that would normally be performed by the computer. The memory system comprises active structure modules that are interconnected in a network to form clusters. The clusters are interconnected to form an aggregate memory system. Each ASE contains a processor section and a conventional memory section.

  • Patent number: 5072308
    Abstract: A telecommunication system and method for communicating communication signals between various stations over a selected carrier medium. An improved encoder and method is provided for compressing a communication signal into a selectively formatted encoded signal to facilitate its transmission over the selected carrier medium. The method is particularly useful for encoding fax and modem data signals which do not exhibit the harmonics of a voice signal. A decoder and method for reconstruction of the encoded signal are also provided.

  • Patent number: 4804193
    Abstract: An electronic dartboard which includes a circuit board having a plurality of contacts and a dart-engaging target assembly mounted in front of the circuit board. The target assembly has a plurality of individual scoring blocks. Each block has at least one stem rearwardly protruding towards the circuit board. A conductor point and a buffer ring are provided at the back end of the stem. The buffer ring spaces the conductor point from the contact point. When a dart is thrown on the dartboard the buffer ring deforms engaging the conductor point with the contact point.

  • Patent number: 4797925
    Abstract: A method for coding speech at low bit rates is disclosed. As compared to the well known stochastic coding method, the method of the present invention requires substantially less computational resources. The reduction of required resources is achieved by utilizing a set of code sequences in which each code sequence is related to the previous code sequence. For example, each succeeding code sequence may be derived from the previous code sequence by removing one or more elements from the beginning of the previous sequence, and adding one or more elements to the end of the previous sequence.
