    Abstract: An optical data storage device (10) adapted to act as a "host" or master on a peripheral interface (14) ( e.g. Universal Serial Bus) allows easy (automatic and single button activated) storage of data from a consumer electronic device (16) such as Digital Still Camera (DSC) directly connected to the device on a standard optical storage medium (13) such as CD-R without the need for a (10) personal computer. The images are decompressed and stored (11) within the drive memory (22), re-compressed into a standard format, MPEG-1 (transcoded). The transcoded images are recorded onto the optical medium (13) in a format where each still image is written as a separate image frame. The standard format is compatible with the Video CD (or VCD) standard. This invention also provides a device comprising two peripheral interfaces and adapted (18) to act as a host on both, so that the separate or other form of data storage device including HDD or flash memory can be used.

    Abstract: A color facsimile comprises a multilevel JPEG coding/decoding means (106) for coding color data, and a binary JBIG coding/decoding means (108). When the receiving side facsimile employs the same recording system as that of the transmitting side facsimile, color data read out by a color correcting section (119) are corrected with a correction value corresponding to the characteristics of a recording means of the transmitter, binarized and coded by the JBIG coding/decoding means (108) and transmitted. When the receiving side facsimile does not employ the same recording system as that of the transmitting side facsimile, the read out color data are coded by the JPEG coding/decoding means (106) and transmitted. Since the amount of data transmitted can be reduced without causing degradation of the image quality, the communication time can be shortened and low memory capacity can be avoided.

    Abstract: A Mobile Switching Center (MSC) includes a cellular modem pool (230) that comprises a number of pairs of modems in which the data terminal equipment (DTE) ports of each modem pair are cross-connected in a 'back-to-back' fashion. This allows the two modems of each pair to interchange data via their DTE ports and thereby isolate that portion of a cellular fax call over the cellular communications channel (200) from that portion of the cellular fax call through the PSTN. Fax information is transmitted over the PSTN-portion of the cellular fax call using a '1-D' fax compression scheme. However, fax information is transmitted over the cellular-portion of the cellular fax call using a '2-D' fax compression scheme and a data modulation as specified in AT & T Paradyne's 'Enhanced Throughput Cellular' (ETC) Protocol. The fax terminal equipment at the cellular end of the cellular fax call is configured to perform fax compression/decompression using the '2-D' fax compression scheme. The PSTN-side modem (300) of the cellular modem pool performs the translation between the '2-D' and '1-D' fax compression schemes transmitted on the cellular-side and PSTN-side, respectively.
