The properties of the two-dimensional Fourier spectra of the most significant impairments occurring in cable television transmission systems are studied. These are snow noise, composite triple beats, picture carrier beats impairments, and power line interference. Features of these impairments are found. These features are to be used in an automatic television picture impairment detection and classification system. It is shown that the impaired television pictures have different spectrum properties which enable design and implementation of a simple automatic television noise detection and classification system.<>

The performance of a four-state trellis-coded differential eight-phase shift keying (8-DPSK) technique in fast Rayleigh fading characterizing realistic mobile radio channels is studied. A combination of one-bit and two-bit differential detectors is used at the receiving end. The Viterbi decoder is used to determine the most likely coded signal sequence directly from the unquantized channel outputs. The four-state trellis-coded modulation (TCM) schemes using 8-DPSK can improve the bit error rate.<>

The authors implemented a causal probability network (CPN) model using the HUGIN shell to represent part of the overall effect of acid precipitation on lakes. A tool for entering raw data into the CPN model, based on earlier rule-based modeling efforts by the RAISON project at Canada Centre for Inland Waters, Environment Canada, was developed. The network editor developed allows the water chemistry and flow data to be directly applied to calculate marginal distributions ready for input to HUGIN. The authors used the RAISON experience to draw preliminary conclusions concerning environmental models which have representation and propagation of uncertainties in hypotheses and outcomes. The authors show the utilization of Bayesian inference to the watershed aggregates defined for the earlier, rule-based model developed for acid rain. Naturally occurring and industrial causes of aquatic acidity are incorporated in a network with probabilities generated from observations. A sample CPN with four nodes is illustrated. It represents the relationship between water chemistry, color, sulfate load, and the percent reduction of acid neutralizing capacity in a lake.<>

The authors propose a soft bounded policy for congestion control of a communication network. The resultant blocking by this policy is examined. The key point is that congestion is usually not a static resource allocation problem. The chief cause of congestion is the dynamic property of traffic. Dynamic traffic needs a dynamic scheme. The soft bounded policy aims to fulfill the dynamic control of the system with a simple mechanism. The Simon's (1962) proposition and A. Kuczura's (1973) model are used to guide the control and analysis of the network. This policy and the evaluation model have removed the obstacles in previous work. The advantages of the policy are discussed.<>

The evolution of a successful telecommunications monitoring device is described from its inception to its installation across Canada. This product, called the service discrimination unit (SDU), is a powerful and flexible platform for digital processing of signals on a T1 span. Signal processing is provided by Motorola DSP56001 digital signal processors and control functions are provided by Motorola 68HC11 processors. The SDU's first commercial application is to apply the DSP processing power to determine if the traffic being carried on a telephone line is voice, modem data, or facsimile data.<>

Block coded modulation (BCM) is a bandwidth efficient scheme that results from the combination of block coding and modulation. The concept of BCM is applied to frequency/phase modulation (FPM) schemes, and the coding gain over uncoded M-PSK, BCM M-PSK, and TCM FPM systems is demonstrated. It is found that block code configurations of low complexity yield coding gains on the order of 3 dB over uncoded modulation while higher complexity codes further improve the performance. A procedure is described for the construction of BCM trellis diagrams, and examples that demonstrate the applicability of the procedure are included.<>

The authors present the transform-domain forward-backward least-mean-squares (LMS) (TFBLMS) adaptive algorithm, its properties, and applications. The authors demonstrate that the TFBLMS adaptive line enhancer (ALE) gives significantly improved convergence speed for various applications with colored noise inputs and same level of reduced misadjustment as the forward-backward LMS (FBLMS) ALE for a given convergence factor (adaptive step size). The authors examine the impacts of the backward prediction error and forward prediction error individually on the total misadjustment in both the FBLMS and TFBLMS algorithms. The choice of a suitable transform is discussed as an implementation issue for the TFBLMS algorithm.<>

The signal processing principles utilized in sensory neural systems such as the retina and optic lobes of insects are studied with a view to deriving principles for design of analog integrated circuit peripheral (early) processing systems. The basic peripheral processing principles in biological visual systems are gain adaptation and lateral inhibition. The utility, both in biological and artificial neural networks, of nonlinear lateral inhibition is examined. Because lateral inhibition involves only near neighbor interactions between cells, optoelectronic implementations in the form of monolithically integrated photodetector arrays are particularly attractive. These have wide practical applicability for machine vision, optical scanning, and image enhancement purposes. Such implementations are completely analog and can be designed to require only one transistor per unilateral interconnection.<>

UWGSP4 (University of Washington Graphics System Processor) consists of four parts: a parallel vector processor, a shared-memory system, an interconnection network, and a graphics subsystem. The parallel vector processor was provided mainly for imaging and general-purpose computing, whereas the main functions of the graphics subsystem are to generate realistic three-dimensional images and to draw the display screen. Among the four parts, the shared memory and the interconnection network were designed to fully support the parallel vector processor and graphics subsystem so as to yield high sustained performance. A discussion is presented of the architecture of UWGSP4, simulated performance figures for several imaging and graphics algorithms, and applications areas.<>

Dynamic range controllers (DRCs) find wide application in the recording and reproduction of audio signals. With the advent of powerful, low-cost digital signal processing hardware, the potential for creating low-cost digital dynamic range controllers (DDRCs) has increased. Previous DDRC designs used expensive custom hardware and were typically reimplementations of traditional architectures. A description is presented of the design and real-time implementation of a single-channel DDRC. The design uses adaptive recovery and signal measurement to improve performance.<>
