  • Patent number: 6393051
    Abstract: A digital subscriber line communicating system and a transceiver therein are disclosed. The system or the transceiver comprises: a unit for calculating a bitmap which defines the number of transmissible bits for each carrier signal in each of periodical noise durations and a rate converter for converting a constant rate of an input transmitting data into a rate determined by the bitmap, and for adding, in a predetermined number of the periodical noise durations, dummy bits to the data having the converted rate. The bitmap calculating unit includes: a line quality measuring unit for measuring the quality of the communication line in each of the periodical noise durations, a transmission bit number converter for calculating the number of transmissible bits to be allocated to each carrier to form the bitmap, and a bitmap optimizing unit for minimizing the dummy bits by decreasing the number of the transmissible bits allocated to each carrier signal of the symbols.

  • Publication number: 20010024454
    Abstract: A subscriber communication machine is provided with an off-synchronous detector detecting off-synchronization of communication with an office communication machine, a correlation processor correlatively processing received data received over a communication line and held data having been transmitted from the office communication machine when the off-synchronization is detected by the off-synchronous detector, and a resychronous controller specifying a synchronous timing by the correlation process in the correlation processor to establish resynchronization in the communication with the office communication machine. When subscriber communication machine cannot keep synchronization with a transmission cycle in a predetermined transmission system such as TCM or the like in steady communication, it is possible to promptly resume the communication without necessity for initializing all over again.

  • Patent number: 5841809
    Abstract: A post-cursor tap coefficient of a decision feedback equalizer is used as a coefficient of an echo canceler during a cold-start echo canceler training period in which a communication start-up training is carried out in an initial state and during a cold-start received signal detection period, so that an echo cancellation characteristic can be improved without increasing the circuit scale of the echo canceler and a high-speed, error-free received signal detection can be attained.

  • Patent number: 5659609
    Abstract: An echo canceller is disclosed which generates an echo replica based on a transmit signal to cancel an echo. The echo canceller includes a linear echo canceller circuit for generating an echo replica of the transmit signal in the absence of distortion. The echo canceller further includes a waveform-distortion compensation circuit, coupled with the linear echo canceller circuit, for generating an echo replica for compensating waveform distortion occurred in an echo response when the transmit signal is distorted. In the echo canceller, the echo is canceled by use of the echo replica generated in the linear echo canceller circuit in the absence of distortion in the transmit signal, and is canceled by use of the echo replica generated in the waveform-distortion compensation circuit when the transmit signal is distorted.

  • Patent number: 5638409
    Abstract: A data receiving device for reproducing a received symbol from a received data signal, includes a timing recovery circuit for controlling a phase of sampling the received data signal, by using pre-cursor information, the timing recovery circuit produces sampling phase control information by eliminating a high frequency component for the pre-cursor information, accumulating eliminated output, comparing accumulated output with a positive or a negative threshold value and subtracting the threshold value from compared output. The data receiving device further includes a masking circuit for masking the sampling phase control information when no-signal data or frame is detected in the received data signal.

  • Patent number: 5617450
    Abstract: A digital subscriber loop interface unit, connected to a digital subscriber loop, includes an echo canceler for carrying out a echo canceling operation, a decision feedback equalizer for carrying out an equalizing operation, and a transversal filter, provided in at least one of the echo canceler and the decision feedback equalizer, in which a plurality of taps among all taps are grouped into groups, each group including a predetermined number of taps continuously arranged, a single tap coefficient being assigned to the taps in each group. A digital subscriber loop interface unit may include an echo canceler for carrying out a echo canceling operation by using a value obtained by adding +1 to a symbol value represented by a 2B1Q code.

  • Patent number: 5399985
    Abstract: The invention provides a digital PLL circuit wherein the integration time constant of a random walk filter can be varied adaptively in response to a frequency error. A master clock signal having a frequency equal to N (integral number) times that of an input clock signal is normally divided by N by a divider, and the division output of the divider and the input clock signal are compared in phase with each other by a phase comparator. The dividing ratio of the divider is temporarily varied in accordance with a result of the comparison so as to make the phases of the division output and the input clock signal coincide with each other to establish synchronism between them.

  • Patent number: 5375147
    Abstract: An impulse response of a litter may change in the output of a filter unit immediately after the generation of a litter according to a sampling timing signal from a timing regenerating unit if a filter unit is provided between an A/D converting unit and an echo canceler. In this case, a selecting unit in a jitter compensating unit compensates an uncanceled echo through each of the outputs sequentially selected by a plurality of adaptive filter unit. Plural sets of tap coefficients are stored in a tap coefficient storage unit, from which the selecting unit sequentially reads them to operate one adaptive filter unit, thereby reducing the size of a jitter compensating circuit.

  • Patent number: 5367540
    Abstract: A transversal filter has a transfer function for which a zero point occurs outside a unit circle on z plane and thus the output waveform has a ringing characteristic having a change from negative to positive around a precursor and before a main cursor and is associated and integrated with another transversal filter, thereby forming a waveform shaping decimation filter or a pulse shaping high-pass filter. The waveform decimation filter can eliminate a high frequency noise, changes a high frequency input data to a low frequency output data, and performs a waveform shaping operation. Therefore it cannot require a pulse shaping filter separated from the decimation filter. The pulse shaping high-pass filter includes a pulse shaping filter whose number of the taps is decreased and performs high-pass filter function. A pulse shaping filter whose number of the taps is decreased can be used separately from the high-pass filter.
