    Abstract: A channel bank speech synthesizer for reconstructing speech from externally-generated acoustic feature inforamtion without using externally-generated voicing or pitch information is disclosed. An N-channel pitch-excited channel bank synthesizer (340) is provided having a first low-frequency group of channel gain values (1 to M) and a second high-frequency group of channel gain values (M+1 to N). The first group control a first group of amplitude modualtors (950) excited by a periodic pitch pulse source (920), and the second group controls amplitude modulators excited by a noise source (930). Both groups of modulated excitation signals are applied to the bandpass filters (960) to reconstruct the speech channels, and then combined at the summation network (970) to form a reconstructed synthesized speech signal. Additionally, the pitch pulse source (920) varies the pitch pulse period such that the pitch pulse rate decreases over the length of the word.

    Abstract: The dual mode communication network comprises a first communication system having a frame structure and a first traffic channel protocol and a second communication system having the frame structure and a second traffic channel protocol. In the network, only one of the first and second traffic channel protocols supports forward error correction coding.

    Abstract: There is provided a method of and apparatus for Automatice Frequency Control (AFC) of pure sine waves (PSW). It is characterized by discriminating to detect frequency differences between a received pure sine wave and a reference frequency (20), integrating (30) the frequency differences to average the differences, and adjusting (40) the reference frequency (80) to eliminate the frequency difference. It is further characterized by digitizing, in quadrature, the received pure sine wave (70), mixing (50) the received pure sine wave with a complex sinusoid to translate the pure sine wave to baseband, quadrature filtering (60) the mixed sine wave, cross-product discrimination (20) to detect frequency differences between a received pure sine wave and a reference frequency, integration (30) the frequency differences to average the differences, selectively (100/110) calculating the mean/variance (90) between the pure sine wave and the reference frequency, and adjusting (40) the reference frequency of a Voltage Controlled Oscillator 80 to eliminate the frequency difference.

    Abstract: A receiver circuit (400, 500) receives a spread spectrum communication signal, such as a DS-CDMA signal, including a pilot channel and including a power control designator. The signal is despread and decoded. The pilot symbols on the pilot channel are provided to a channel estimator (408) for estimating the channel phase and channel gain of the communication channel. This estimate is provided to a demodulator (422) for demodulating the traffic channel symbols. The pilot symbols are provided to another channel estimator (410) for estimating channel phase and channel gain for the power control designator. This estimate is provided to a demodulator (424) for demodulating the power control designator. The traffic channel symbols are delayed a predetermined time in a delay element (420) before demodulating. The power control designator is delayed a short time or not at all in a short delay element (418) before demodulation.
