Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention may be used to implement a rate converter that includes: 6 channels in forward (audio) path, each channel having a 24-bit signal path per channel, an End-to-end SNR of 110 dB, all within the 20 Hz to 20 KHz bandwidth. Embodiment may also be used to implement a rate converter having: 2 channels in a reverse path, such as for voice signals, 16-bit signal path per channel, an End-to-end SNR of 93 dB, all within 20 Hz to 20 KHz bandwidth. The rate converter may include sample rates such as 8, 11.025, 12, 16, 22.05, 24, 32 44.1, 48, and 96 KHz. Further, rate converters according to embodiments may include a gated clock in low-power mode to conserve power.
Abstract:
A system that receives a line encoded data stream from a source. The system has a de-serializer for de-serializing a line encoded data stream to generate a raw parallel data stream. The system has a serializer for serializing the raw parallel data stream. The system has a parallel data generator configured to generate another raw parallel data stream. The system has reconfigurable circuitry for communicating the raw parallel data stream to the serializer in a configuration and communicating the other parallel data stream in another configuration.
Abstract:
This invention relates to a system, method and computer program product for encoding an input string of binary characters including: a cellular data structure definition including a starting empty cell; one or more path definitions defining paths through the data structure; a character reading and writing engine for writing a binary character to an empty cell with a predefined initial position; a next cell determination engine for determining a next empty cell by methodically checking cells along one of the paths in the data structure until an empty cell is located; a loop facilitator for looping back to the writing next character step and the determining next cell step until there are no more data characters or a next empty cell is not determined; and a serialization deserialization engine for methodically serializing the data structure into a one dimensional binary string of characters representing an encoded string of alphanumeric characters.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a computer program product for providing header protection in magnetic tape recording includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions readable by a processor to cause the processor to: calculate or obtain, by the processor, codeword interleave designation (CWID) parity for all CWIDs in a codeword interleave (CWI) set header, the CWID parity including error correction coding (ECC) parity, and store, by the processor, the CWID parity to a magnetic tape in one or more fields which are repeated for each CWI header in the CWI set header without using reserved bits in the CWI set header to store the CWID parity. Other systems and methods for providing header protection in magnetic tape recording are described in more embodiments.

Abstract:
An apparatus and method for encoding data are disclosed that may allow for different encoding levels of transmitted data. The apparatus may include an encoder unit and a plurality of transceiver units. The encoder unit may be configured to receive a plurality of data words, where each data word includes N data bits, wherein N is a positive integer greater than one, and encode a first data word of the plurality of data words. The encoded first data word may include M data bits, where M is a positive integer greater than N. Each transceiver unit may transmit a respective data bit of the encoded first data word. The encoder unit may be further configured to receive information indicative of a quality of transmission of the encoded first data word, and encode a second data word of the plurality of data words dependent upon the quality.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes a controller and a compression unit. The controller includes logic to receive an input line of data from a data producer and divide the input line of data into a plurality of segment. Each segment corresponds to a compression context and to a multi-line data tile. The controller also includes logic to write a first segment of the input line to a first multi-line data tile, and to write a second segment of the input line to a second multi-line data tile upon reaching a boundary of the first multi-line data tile. The compression unit includes logic to apply a first compression context to the first multi-line data tile and a second compression context to the second multi-line data tile.
Abstract:
A data processing apparatus that is capable of reducing the garbling of characters caused by the difference among the character codes when setting data are transferred to another apparatus by the import-export function. A storage unit stores setting data for the data processing apparatus. A receiving unit receives an instruction for exporting the setting data stored in the storage unit. A converting unit converts Unicode data included in the setting data into character code data of language, which is set to the data processing apparatus. An export unit exports the character code data converted by the converting unit and the Unicode data.
Abstract:
In one embodiment, a system for providing header protection in magnetic tape recording is adapted to write a codeword interleave (CWI) set on a magnetic tape including a plurality of CWIs equal to a number of tracks, wherein a data set includes a plurality of CWI sets, provide a CWI set header for the CWI set, the CWI set header including a CWI header for each CWI in the CWI set, each CWI header including at least a CWI Designation (CWID) which indicates a location of the CWI within the data set, calculate or obtain CWID parity for all CWIDs in the CWI set header, the CWID parity including error correction coding (ECC) parity, and store the CWID parity to one or more fields which are repeated for each CWI header in the CWI set header without using reserved bits in the CWI set header to store the CWID parity.
