Abstract: A test system emulates the analog processing portion of a communication device and adjusts input signals based on distortions specified by a user and control signals generated by a baseband processing portion of the communication device. The distortions can be specified in terms of the baseband. One or more of the control signals can be bypassed to investigate the effect of each of the control signals alone, or in various combinations. An operator interface can be provided that allows the user to set up and conduct the tests, and monitor the results. Facilities are also provided to allow the reference voltage at the baseband processing portion to be adjusted while maintaining the appropriate reference voltage for components in the test system.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are disclosed relating to communications. The systems and techniques involve a method of testing a number of wireless subscriber stations. The testing methodology involves generating a broadcast signal, digitally creating a plurality of independently faded signals from the broadcast signal, and providing at least one of the faded signals to each of the wireless subscriber stations under test.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method of analyzing speech signals in order to reduce the computational power required to perform both speech compression and voice recognition operations. Digital speech signals are provided to a speech analyzer which generates a linear predictive coded (LPC) speech analysis signal that is compatible for use in both the voice recognition circuit and the speech compression circuit. The speech analysis signal is then provided to the compression circuit, which further processes the signal into a form used by an encoder and then the encoder encodes the processed signal. The same speech analysis signal is also provided to a voice recognition circuit, which further processes the signal into a form used by a recognizer and then the recognizer performs recognition on the processed signal.
