Cable Television System Using Transcoding Method

View page
US Patent:
6477706, Nov 5, 2002
Filed:
Apr 28, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/301077
Inventors:
Van T. Hua - San Jose CA
Pedro A. Assuncao - Leiria, PT
Assignee:
Cogent Technology, Inc. - Santa Cruz CA
International Classification:
H04N 7173
US Classification:
725 96, 725 95, 37524027
Abstract:
The present invention provides a telecommunication. The present provides a method for editing a first digital signal such as a constant bit rate digital signal in a cable head end. The present method uses a step of providing a first constant bit rate information stream (e. g. , multiple constant bit rate streams), where the first constant bit rate stream includes a plurality of variable bit rate streams. Each of the variable bit rate streams correspond to a program, e. g. , television program. The method removes one or more of the variable bit rate streams from the first constant bit rate stream, and converts the first constant bit rate stream without the one or more variable bit rate streams into a second constant bit rate stream. A step of transferring the second constant bit rate stream to a user location is included. The present invention uses a transcoding technique to edit the first constant bit rate stream without interfering with video picture quality at the user location.

US Patent:
20010039661, Nov 8, 2001
Filed:
Apr 28, 1999
Appl. No.:
09/301216
Inventors:
VAN T. HUA - SAN JOSE CA, US
PEDRO A. ASSUNCAO - LEIRIA, PT
International Classification:
G06F015/16
H04N007/173
US Classification:
725/086000, 709/217000
Abstract:
The present invention provides computer software or “codes” for editing a first digital signal such as a constant bit rate digital signal in a cable headend. The invention has memory for storing these codes. These codes include a first code directed to receiving a first constant bit rate information stream, where the first constant bit rate stream is made of at least a plurality of variable bit rate streams. Each of the variable bit rate streams corresponds to a program, e.g., television program. The invention also includes a code that removes one or more of the variable bit rate streams from the first constant bit rate stream, and a code that transfers the first constant bit rate stream, without the one or more variable bit rate streams, as a second constant bit rate stream, which may include an additional television channel, to a user location. These codes can be stored in computer memory including memory of integrated circuit devices.

Teleradiology System

US Patent:
47485116, May 31, 1988
Filed:
Jun 7, 1984
Appl. No.:
6/618346
Inventors:
John L. Nichols - Santa Clara CA
David Wang - Milpitas CA
Edward Kirkpatrick - Scotts Valley CA
Clark M. Viehweg - Los Gatos CA
Edwin S. Morton - Campbell CA
Van T. Hua - San Jose CA
William G. King - Los Gatos CA
Assignee:
Raytel Systems Corporation - San Jose CA
International Classification:
H04N 100
H04N 532
US Classification:
358256
Abstract:
A teleradiology system capable of scanning X-ray images and the like and transmitting the scanned images to various locations is disclosed. The images may be compressed for storage or transmission. Compressed images can be transmitted much more quickly and take up much less space than uncompressed images. Compressed images can be expanded for, among other things, viewing. The compressor/expander and input/output devices reside on a bus structure in such a manner that digital image data can be selectively passed between the compressor/expander and the various input/output devices.

High Speed Microcomputer In-Circuit Emulator

View page
US Patent:
53218280, Jun 14, 1994
Filed:
Jun 7, 1991
Appl. No.:
7/712917
Inventors:
Michael D. Phillips - Santa Clara CA
Darrell L. Wilburn - Saratoga CA
Van T. Hua - San Jose CA
Gordon A. Minami - Palo Alto CA
Robert J. Kresge - Cupertino CA
Charles Verhaegh - Arkata CA
Assignee:
Step Engineering - Sunnyvale CA
International Classification:
G06F 1130
US Classification:
395500
Abstract:
An in-circuit emulator (ICE) for hardware/software development and debugging microprocessors. Program execution reconstruction is extracted from an on-board cache memory. An external ICE enclosure interfaces to a target system microprocessor via a cable and a buffer/interface pod. A control program directs a non-intrusive emulation and a monitor program resides in a personal computer host and supports ICE commands. The monitor program allows a user to follow a target system's program flow, to capture related processor information, to make program modifications, and allows the user to restart programs. An on-line disassembler presents a display so as to allow the designer to examine memory, using instruction mnemonics rather than hexadecimal values, thus improving the designer's ability to read program memory. A bit trace buffer records the state of each the microprocessor's signals during each cycle of each instruction. Multiple breakpoints allow a system developer to control a program in ROM, as well as one resident in RAM.
