ABSTRACT:
delete-start id="REI-00001" date="20111122" ?A communication system for sending a sequence of symbols on a communication link. The system includes a transmitter for placing information indicative of the sequence of symbols on the communication link and a receiver for receiving the information placed on the communication link by the transmitter. The transmitter includes a clock for defining successive frames, each of the frames including M time intervals, where M is an integer greater than 1. A modulator modulates each of M carrier signals with a signal related to the value of one of the symbols thereby generating a modulated carrier signal corresponding to each of the carrier signals. The modulated carriers are combined into a sum signal which is transmitted on the communication link. The carrier signals include first and second carriers, the first carrier having a different bandwidth than the second carrier. In one embodiment, the modulator includes a tree-structured array of filter banks having M leaf nodes, each of the values related to the symbols forming an input to a corresponding one of the leaf nodes. Each of the nodes includes one of the filter banks. Similarly, the receiver can be constructed of a tree-structured array of sub-band filter banks for converting M time-domain samples received on the communication link to M symbol values.delete-end id="REI-00001" ?insert-start id="REI-00002" date="20111122" ?A stereophonic audio signal decompression method that includes decoding, using a decoder, a compressed stereophonic audio signal. A de-quantizer de-quantizes the compressed stereophonic audio signal to generate sets of frequency components for synthesizing left and right audio signals. A controller switches to constructing a single set of frequency components by averaging corresponding frequency components in the left and right audio signals when a computational workload exceeds a capacity of a decompression system and a synthesizer synthesizes a monaural audio time domain signal.insert-end id="REI-00002" ?
