Latest Patents
Irvine's latest patents include an "Apparatus and method for decoding and computing a discrete cosine transform using a butterfly processor." This invention focuses on determining the inverse transform of a block of encoded data, which consists of multiple compressed frequency domain data elements. The apparatus features an input register that receives a predetermined quantity of data elements, and at least one butterfly processor that performs mathematical operations on selected pairs of data elements to produce processed data. Additionally, an intermediate register temporarily stores the processed data, while a feedback loop enables further mathematical operations or transfers processed data to a holding register.
Another significant patent is for "Sub-optimal variable length coding," which aims to minimize the code length of an input address for variable length encoded data. This invention involves reading a block of variable length encoded data and converting it into sub-optimally encoded data. The variable length encoded data is structured with a prefix portion that signifies the look-up table and a suffix portion that serves as an input address for the look-up table.
