Currently, they are used mainly to enhance the multimedia capabilities of PCs. Shortly, we may also expect to see their application in consumer electronics products that require a high degree of flexibility or interactivity. A typical media processor like the new chip described here’ uses a mixture of concepts from function-specific implementations, DSPs and general purpose processors. It can fulfil a variety of purposes in a ‘multimedia-enhanced’ TV platform. INTRODUCTION Multimedia has been the ‘hottest’ subject in the computer market for the last few years. Graphics, sound, and still and moving pictures greatly enhance users’ appreciation of their PCs. With such multimedia applications, computers enter an area that was formerly the exclusive domain of consumer electronics. In addition to the multimedia experience, the traditional PC assets of interactivity and customization still hold a competitive edge over consumer electronics equipment. On the other hand, the priceperformance ratio of consumer electronics equipment, i.e. the audio and video quality per dollar, is an order of magnitude better than that of current computer-based multimedia solutions. In addition, the robustness and easeof-use of consumer equipment is high. We expect to see a growing number of products that mix typical PC and consumer functions. Examples are interactive set top boxes, cheap network computers, and televisions with Internet browsing capabilities. For these products to be successful, they must offer the best of both worlds, i.e. they should be able to run many different multimedia applications with high quality and at low cost. To achieve this apparently unrealistic goal, it is necessary to reconsider the traditional approaches to product implementation, i.e. for PC manufacturers the general purpose processor based implementations, for consumer 1. The IC is available commercially as TMlOOO (formerly known only as TM 1). electronics manufacturers the fixed function implementations. Media processors are an attractive alternative for this market: they offer a fully software-programmable, highperformance solution at affordable prices. In the full paper, we shall elaborate on the relationship between media processors, general purpose processors, programmable DSPs and function specific implementations. A NEW MEDIA PROCESSOR FAMILY The first of a new family of media processors has recently been released; derivative products are under development. The new chip [l, 21 consists of the following components: A very powerful VLIW DSP-CPU that runs most of the non-trivial parts of the multimedia application software, typically on top of a small real-time operating system DMA-driven multimedia input and output units that format the data V LD CO-PROCESSOR ’ VIDEO IN","PeriodicalId":127085,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Conference on Consumer Electronics","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1997-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115179923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to residual intersymbol interference (HI) levels at equalizer output, the proposed algorithm adopts a single-level radius or a multi-level radius to form the error signal to be minimized. Thus, it is possible to reduce the steady-state error and improve the convergence speed of conventional property restoral algorithms. Introduction The property restoral approach is a widely used blind equalization technique. Instead of using the training sequence the property restoral approach identifies an invariant property of the signal of interest and then uses it for adapting an equalizer. However, the performances for steady-state and blind convergence of conventional property restoral algorithms degrade when they are extended to high-order QAM constellations. In this paper, the problems of conventional property restoral algorithms are formulated, and a novel blind equalization technique based on property restoral approach is presented.","PeriodicalId":127085,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Conference on Consumer Electronics","volume":"453 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120939270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For instance, a single bit error in a coded video bitstream may cause severe degradations on picture quality. Therefore, error concealment is needed at the receiver for picture replenishment. Error concealment algorithms attempt to repair damaged portions of the picture by exploiting the spatial and temporal redundancies in the received and reconstructed video signals. In this paper, we utilize spatially correlated information for error concealment by performing spatial interpolation based on a large local neighborhood of surrounding pixels, and restore image edges that are continuous with those present in the neighborhood. Although other spatial interpolation techniques generate blurring effects, out proposed method has shown no blurring.","PeriodicalId":127085,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Conference on Consumer Electronics","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114238391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
