Title: Innovations of Christopher A Otto
Introduction
Christopher A Otto is an accomplished inventor based in Madison, AL (US). He has made significant contributions to the field of telecommunications, holding a total of 2 patents. His work focuses on enhancing audio and data transmission technologies.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Full duplex voice path capture buffer with time stamp." This invention is designed for diagnostic and troubleshooting purposes. It features an audio/voice signal capture mechanism that interfaces with a time division multiplexed (TDM) transport path-cascaded echo canceler and compression arrangement for an integrated access device (IAD). The mechanism captures a 'snapshot' of audio/voice signals by storing a prescribed number of seconds of signals transmitted in both directions through the IAD. It also time stamps the captured audio/voice signals and associated signaling events of interest. This invention operates as a 'virtual' oscilloscope, capturing pertinent data for any voice call problem along with an associated time stamp event log.
Another notable patent is the "Mechanism for providing octet alignment in serial ATM data stream." This invention includes a byte boundary information recovery mechanism that locates the first bits of respective bytes of an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM)-based serial data stream. It is used by a frame synchronization mechanism to delineate respective cells of the ATM stream, enabling transceiver equipment to successfully receive and parse ATM traffic. The invention employs a counter offset-based scheme that generates an output signal in potential alignment with the boundary of a byte of the data stream, iteratively shifting the bit time as necessary until the output signal is aligned.
