Patent EP-1253721-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TAEHTINEN ILKKA
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 2002-04-11
Abstract: The invention relates generally to a method and an
arrangement for receiving a radio frequency (RF) signal
and an RF receiver. Particularly the invention relates to
controlling and reducing power consumption in a radio
receiver. The invention can advantageously be applied in
receiving arrangements of radio systems, wherein
information is transferred in bursts, such as a receiver of
Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) system. According to
the invention, during the time between two bursts the power
supply is maintained in at least in some parts of the phase
locked loop PLL (240), while one or several other parts
(202, 204, 224, 225, 230, 262, 270) of the receiver are
turned off for a certain time period between the two bursts.
The present invention enables fast tuner lock-in time and
still offers a considerable saving in total power
consumption of the receiver.

Abstract: A low-noise directional microphone system includes a front microphone, a rear microphone, a low-noise phase-shifting circuit and a summation circuit. The front microphone generates a front microphone signal, and the rear microphone generates a rear microphone signal. The low-noise phase-shifting circuit implements a frequency-dependent phase difference between the front microphone signal and the rear microphone signal to create a controlled loss in directional gain and to maintain a maximum level of noise amplification over a pre-determined frequency band. The summation circuit combines the front and rear microphone signals to generate a directional microphone signal.

Abstract: A variable-frequency inverter microwave oven and a method for controlling the same. The inverter microwave oven comprises a magnetron for generating electromagnetic waves, a direct current (DC) voltage generator for rectifying and smoothing a commercial alternating current (AC) voltage, which is an inverter drive voltage, to generate a DC voltage, and a switching device for performing a switching operation based on the DC voltage from the DC voltage generator to generate an AC voltage for the driving of the magnetron. The switching device includes a plurality of switches turned on/off in response to the DC voltage from the DC voltage generator. The microwave oven further comprises a variable-frequency controller for varying a switching frequency of the switching device according to the level of the DC voltage from the DC voltage generator to maintain the AC voltage from the switching device at a constant level, and a magnetron drive voltage generator for converting the AC voltage from the switching device into a high-power DC voltage and transferring the converted DC voltage to the magnetron to drive it. The inverter operation is improved compared with a conventional one and a magnetron drive duration is lengthened, thereby improving heating efficiency and operational reliability of the microwave oven.

Abstract: An impact printer with a hammerbank having print hammers
retained by a permanent magnet (82) for impacting a print
ribbon, and a mechanical driver for moving the hammerbank
across print media. First and second coils (98, 100) for
each hammer are wrapped around first and second pole
pieces (84, 86), one of which is asymmetrical to the other
pole piece. One of the pole pieces (84) can have a
generally elongated longitudinal form with the coil (98)
wound around the longitudinal form. The other (86) can
have a generally arcuate form, with the coil (100) wrapped
on a portion between the ends thereof. The coil (100)
wrapped around the arcuately formed pole piece (86) is
thicker than the coil (98) wrapped along the longitudinal
pole piece (84). The result is to provide pole pieces and
coils for an impact printer having differing spatial
relationships that can be staggered, or formed
