Abstract:
The invention provides a digital communication system that prevents receivers from making noise. In a transmitter, an analog input signal is converted to a digital signal, which is compared with a predetermined level by a power level detector (5). The transmitter transmits a signal, which contains the digital signal or its amplified version and a control bit representative of the result of comparison. A receiver produces an analog output converted from the digital signal or an analog signal converted from the amplified digital signal, depending on the control bit in the received digital signal.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a noise reduction processing method capable of suppressing noise generated by the difference of the processing speed between the transmitting side and the receiving side in the digital communication system for asynchronously transmitting and receiving streaming data. SOLUTION: The digital signal receiving device includes: a receiver 1 for receiving the streaming data transmitted from the transmitting device; and a digital-analog converter (hereinafter, to be referred to simply as DAC3) for converting the digital signal output from a data compensation part constituted of DSP2 and data compensation part to audio sound. Furthermore, specifically, the data compensation part includes a write pointer for writing the streaming data received from the receiver 1; three types of buffers, r_data_buf21, x_data_buf22, and p_data_buf23 for writing data of the data compensation part; and a read pointer for reading data of the buffer to transmit to the DAC3.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a communication system capable of securing a sufficient dynamic range. SOLUTION: Corresponding to the compared result of an analog signal and a prescribed level, a transmitter sends out a transmitting signal containing any one of a digital signal, with which the digital conversion of the analog signal is performed, and a digital signal, with which the digital conversion of the analog signal is performed after analog amplification, and a control bit C expressing the compared result. Corresponding to the control bit C contained in the received digital signal, a receiver outputs a signal, with which the received digital signal is converted into an analog signal, or signal, with which the analog amplification of the received digital signal is performed after conversion into the analog signal.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide, with reduced cost, a compact and simply formed drive device in which noise such as wind noise generating from an electric fan is canceled by the electric fan itself. SOLUTION: The noise such as wind noise generating from the electric fan 12 is detected by a microphone 24. Based on the result of detection by the microphone 24, a control circuit 26 generates a noise control signal to cancel the noise 22 and inputs it into a modulation circuit 16. The modulation circuit 16 modulates a drive signal to drive the electric fan 12 by the noise control signal. Therefore, the electric fan 12 rotates while changing the rotating speed according to the noise control signal and functions as so-called a pneumatic loudspeaker. Consequently, the noise 22 such as the wind noise naturally emitted from the electric fan 12 is canceled by the control noise 28 intentionally emitted from the electric fan 12 as the pneumatic loudspeaker.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To increase the number of participants in a conference without improving the capability of existing servers. SOLUTION: Servers are divided hierarchically into an upper layer server 2c and lower layer servers 2a, 2b, wherein the server 2a supplies sound signals from terminals 4a through 4d and the server 2b supplies sound signals from terminals 4e through 4g while mixing to the upper layer server 2c. The upper layer server 2c supplies a lower layer mixing sound signal from the lower layer server 2a as an upper layer mixing sound signal to the lower layer server 2b, and supplies a lower layer mixing sound signal from the lower layer server 2b as an upper layer mixing sound signal to the virtual server 2b. The server 2a supplies the mixing signal of an upper layer mixing sound signal from the upper layer server 2c and sound signals from the terminals 4a through 4d excepting its own terminal to the terminals 4a through 4d. It is also true for the server 2b. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
