  • Patent number: 7441162
    Abstract: An output coding apparatus includes a coder for coding an inputted bitstream to an error correction and/or detection code composed of information bits and check bits; and a bitstream assembling section for assembling an outputted bitstream by inserting a synchronization code at any one of a plurality of synchronization code insertion positions previously determined in the outputted bitstream, arranging the information bits at any desired positions of the bitstream, and by arranging the check bits at positions other than the synchronization code insertion positions in the bitstream. Therefore, when the coding apparatus is combined with a resynchronization method using both an error correction and/or detection code and a synchronization code, it is possible to solve a problem caused by pseudo-synchronization or synchronization-loss pull-out or step-out due to erroneous detection of the synchronization code.

  • Patent number: 7428668
    Abstract: In a coding system wherein an error correction/detection coding is combined with a synchronization recovering technique using a synchronization code, the problems of a pseudo synchronization and a step out due to error detection are solved. There is provided a coding part for coding an input multiplexed code string to an error correcting/detecting code comprising an information bit and a check bit, and code string assembling part for inserting a synchronization code into any one of a plurality of periodically predetermined synchronization code inserting positions in the code string, for arranging the information bit at an optional position in the code string, and for arranging the check bit at a position other than the synchronization code inserting positions in the code string to assemble an output code string.

  • Patent number: 7397714
    Abstract: Fuse data is supplied to each of a plurality of function blocks through a transfer path using shift registers. When the reliability of fuse elements is low, there is a possibility that a part of the fuse data may have an error. Further, when the transfer path of the fuse data is long, there is a possibility that a value of the fuse data may be inverted due to an influence of noises. Thus, a decoder is arranged in the transfer path of the fuse data, and encoded data is stored in the fuse elements. By performing error detection/correction in the decoder, the high reliability is assured with respect to chip operations and the like.

  • Patent number: 7388914
    Abstract: A coding and/or decoding system includes: a code-word table for storing therein a plurality of code words, which are capable of being decoded both in forward and backward directions and which are formed so that delimiters of the code words are capable of being identified by a predetermined weight of the code words, so that the code words correspond to different source symbols; an encoder for selecting code words corresponding to inputted source symbols from the code-word table; and a synchronization interval setting part for preparing coded data every predetermined interval using the code words selected by the encoder and for inserting stuffing codes capable of being decoded in the backward direction. Thus, it is possible to decrease useless bit patterns to enhance the coding efficiency by smaller amounts of calculation and storage, and to decode variable length codes both in the forward and backward directions even if the synchronization interval is set every interval using the stuffing bits.

  • Publication number: 20080062968
    Abstract: Upon making a request for start of position registration for IP-telephone-terminal of an incoming-call-side, IP-telephone-terminal of an outgoing-call-side notifies the IP-telephone-terminal of identification information of the own terminal. If the user makes a request for terminal of the outgoing call before establishment of an IP-communication-link, the IP-telephone-terminal notifies the IP-telephone-terminal of the termination request indicating the termination of the outgoing call, together with the identification information of the IP-telephone-terminal of the outgoing call side.
