    • A video signal processing system includes a memory for holding digital data, input and output channel circuitry for reading data from and writing data to the memory and processing circuits for processing data read from the memory to produce data to be written to the memory. Each of the input and output channels produces two types of memory request signals, a normal request signal and an urgent request signal. The normal request signal is produced to gain access to the data in the memory for normal read and wire operations. The urgent request signal is produced to access the memory when the processing circuitry is in a paused state waiting either to obtain data from the input channel or to provide data to the output channel. The normal read and write request signals are handled with substantially equal priority by first scheduling circuitry. The urgent request signals are handled by second scheduling circuits according to a fixed priority scheme. The use of the second scheduling circuitry disables the first scheduling circuitry.
    • 视频信号处理系统包括用于保存数字数据的存储器,用于从存储器读取数据并将数据写入存储器的输入和输出通道电路,以及用于处理从存储器读取的数据的处理电路,以产生要写入存储器的数据。 每个输入和输出通道产生两种类型的存储器请求信号,一个正常请求信号和一个紧急请求信号。 产生正常请求信号以获得对存储器中的数据的访问以进行正常读取和有线操作。 当处理电路处于暂停状态等待从输入通道获取数据或向输出通道提供数据时,产生紧急请求信号以访问存储器。 正常的读写请求信号通过第一调度电路基本相同的优先级来处理。 紧急请求信号根据固定优先级方案由第二调度电路处理。 第二调度电路的使用禁用第一调度电路。

    • Digital image data is encoded using a variable-length code which is described by a group of parameter values. Each parameter value describes a set of code values; each code value corresponds to a possible value of the data which is to be encoded. When the data is encoded, the parameter values are appended to the encoded data. A decoder stores the parameter values into a memory and then combines data values derived from the encoded data with parameter values from the memory to generate decoded data values. Each code word includes a prefix which indicates a number of successive parameter values which are to be summed, and a population index which is to be added to the summed parameter values to produce a decoded data value.
    • 使用由一组参数值描述的可变长度代码对数字图像数据进行编码。 每个参数值描述一组代码值; 每个代码值对应于要被编码的数据的可能值。 当数据被编码时,参数值被附加到编码数据。 解码器将参数值存储到存储器中,然后将从编码数据导出的数据值与来自存储器的参数值组合以产生解码数据值。 每个代码字包括指示要被求和的连续参数值的数量的前缀以及将被加到相加的参数值以产生解码的数据值的总体索引。

    • A method for performing scaling of a video image uses a noninteger scale factor. The scaling using a series of images scaled according to integer powers of two. An integer scale factor is applied to the image to be scaled in order to provide a series of scaled images. A determination is made which scaled image is the closest image to the one corresponding to the fractional scale factor. The scaled image selected in this manner is then operated upon using an interpolation to obtain the value corresponding to the fractional scale factor. Alternatively, the two scaled images which are closest to the image corresponding to the fractional scale factor may be selected and an interpolation operation or an averaging operation of the two scaled images may be performed to obtain the factional scale image. The scaled images may be predetermined during off-line operations so that a plurality of image selections may be performed upon the same set of predetermined scaled images.
    • 用于执行视频图像缩放的方法使用非整数比例因子。 使用一系列图像进行缩放,该图像根据二的整数幂进行缩放。 整数比例因子被应用于要缩放的图像,以便提供一系列缩放的图像。 确定缩放图像是与分数比例因子相对应的图像的最接近的图像。 然后,使用插补来操作以这种方式选择的缩放图像,以获得与分数比例因子对应的值。 或者,可以选择最接近于分数比例因子的图像的两个缩放图像,并且可以执行两个缩放图像的内插操作或平均化操作以获得派系缩放图像。 缩放图像可以在离线操作期间被预先确定,使得可以在相同的一组预定缩放图像上执行多个图像选择。

    • A central controller, such as an RF distribution shelf (RFDS) of a hybrid fiber/coax (HFC) access system, keeps track of the different channels assigned to different remote units, such as the network interface units (NIUs) of the HFC system. Information about the different channel assignments (e.g., for upstream channels) is broadcast to the remote units as part of the overhead bits in each of the downstream channels. Each remote unit monitors the broadcast messages and, over time, updates its own version of the data structure containing the channel assignments, as appropriate. In one embodiment, the central controller also transmits a second type of broadcast message indicating when changes in the channel assignments occur. In this embodiment, the second type of broadcast message is transmitted more frequently than the entire data structure containing the channel assignments, and the remote units only update their copies of the data structure when the second type of broadcast message indicates a change in the data structure.

    • This application discloses a system for eliminating a busy line condition and completing a call over a virtual private line when the stations at each of the lines attempt to initiate a call simultaneously. The system is implemented in three phases. In a first phase, the busy line condition is detected by either the communication switching system which sets up the virtual private line or by two signal converters, each connected to a station set at each end of the line. In a second phase, the switching system or the converters send terminating supervisory signals towards each station to terminate the attempted initial calls while the stations are still off-hook. In a third phase, a predetermined signal converter or a selected switch in the communication switching system initiates a new call by emitting an originating supervisory signal while the stations are still off-hook.

    • A display processor for a computer with graphics capability includes color map memories addressed by portions of pixel codes during display line trace intervals. The read-outs from these color map memories provide the primary color component signals from which the drive signals for the display monitor kinescope are derived. The pixel codes, from which color map memory addresses are derived, are supplied at video rate to the display processor from the serial output port of dual-ported video random access memory. The color map memories are loaded with new color map data during display retrace intervals. By supplying this new color map data from the serial port of the dual-ported video random-access memory, the color map memories can be rapidly updated.
