Abstract: Raised irregularities in a magnetic data storage disk are removed by contacting an MR
head with the relatively softer irregularity to abrasively erode the irregularity. The
MR head may be brought into contact with the irregularity, for example, by
selectively increasing read bias current of the head to expand the head toward the
disk. Advantageously, removal of such imperfections helps eliminate thermal
asperities created when the head inadvertently contacts raised irregularities during
reading of data.

Abstract: In a motion-vector detecting device for detecting
motion-vectors of images processed through a two-dimensional
filter by subsampling method, a filter
circuit must process pixel values at a block boundary
by delaying the pixel value in both horizontal and
vertical directions, complicating reading pixel data
from a memory and increasing the size of the filter
circuit. The present invention provides: A motion-vector
detecting device for detecting motion-vectors by
searching a match of a coding block of a coding image
with a prediction candidate-block in a searching area
of a reference image, which applies a one-dimensional
filter (3, 4) for a coding block and a prediction
candidate-block in a horizontal direction to restrict
frequency bands of the blocks, calculates a matching
error-value between a part of pixels in the bandlimited
coding block and a part of pixels in the bandlimited
prediction block to detect a motion-vector.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for determining the types of expansion cards connected
to the expansion slot connectors of a computer system. Detect signals are provided to
decode logic for determining the types of expansion cards connected to the computer
system. Ifthe expansion cards are compatible the decode logic produces an output power
supply signal that indicates what the voltage level should be for the power supply to the
cards. If the cards are incompatible, the decode logic may not provide power to any of
the cards or only provide power to some ofthe cards that are compatible. For computers
that allow expansion cards to connect to the computer while the computer is powered on,
hot-plug logic cooperates with the decode logic to establish power and communication
with newly connected interface cards. The connectors in the computer do not include
keys and thus interface cards without keys, as well as cards with different types of key
arrangements can be connected to and communicate with the computer. A removable
keyed adapter can be mated with the expansion slot connectors to effectively provide keys
to the expansion slot connectors to ensure reliable connections between the interface cards
and expansion slot connectors. The adapters can be keyed in variety of arrangements to
match whatever keying arrangements are included on the interface cards. In an alternative
embodiment, voltage drops are provided to quick switches to ensure signaling
compatibility between different card types. Further, all expansion slot connectors can be
keyed for only a subset of the possible card types available and thus reduce the logic
necessary to ensure compatibility.

Abstract: A set of individually gain adjusted subscriber channels (402, 404, 411, 415) are formed via the use of a set of orthogonal subchannel codes (Wc, Ws, Wf) having a small number of PN spreading chips per orthogonal waveform period. Data to be transmitted via one of the transmit channels is low code rate error correction encoded and sequence repeated before being modulated with one of the subchannel codes, gain adjusted, and summed with data modulated using the other subchannel codes. The resulting summed data (410, 420) is modulated using a user long code and a pseudorandom spreading code (PN code) and upconverted for transmission. The use of the short orthogonal codes provides interference suppression while still allowing extensive error correction coding and repetition for time diversity to overcome the Raleigh fading commonly experienced in terrestrial wireless systems. The set of sub-channel codes may comprise four Walsh codes, each orthogonal to the remaining codes of the set. The use of four sub-channels is preferred as it allows shorter orthogonal codes to be used, however, the use of a greater number of channels and therefore longer codes is acceptable. Preferably, pilot data is transmitted via a first one of the transmit channels and power control data transmitted via a second transmit channel. The length, or number of chips, in each channel code may be different to further reduce the peak-to-average transmit power for higher rate data transmission.

Abstract: A signal/vibration detecting technique employs a simple
structure to identify a target optical fiber among many and
carry out a bidirectional conversation through the target
optical fiber. 
     First ends of optical fibers (202A, 202B), one of which
is a target optical fiber, are connected to an optical
transceiver (201). Second ends of the optical fibers are
connected to each other to form a loop. A local unit (203) is
installed at the loop. The local unit vibrates the loop, and
the optical transceiver emits lights so that the lights are
oppositely propagated through the loop. The propagated lights
are coupled together so that they interfere with each other.
In the intensity of the interfering lights, a change
corresponding to the vibration is detected to identify the
target optical fiber. Once the target optical fiber is
identified, it is used to carry out a conversation between
the optical transceiver and the local unit.

Dadurch, daß die Einspritzung beim Hochdruckstart der Brennkraftmaschine erst freigegeben wird, wenn der Druck im Hochdruckspeicher einen vorgegebenen Schwellenwert überschreitet, wird der eingespritzte Kraftstoff besser aufbereitet. Die Einspritzung wird bei einem solchen Hochdruckstart durch die Einspritzmenge und dem Einspritzendewinkel vorgegeben. Durch Vorgabe des Einspritzendewinkels im Gegensatz zur Vorgabe des Einspritzbeginnwinkels bei einem herkömmlichen Niederdruckstart wird sichergestellt, daß sich an der Zündkerze ein zündfähiges Gemisch befindet und zwar unabhängig von der Spritzdauer. <IMAGE>

Title: Method of scanning photographic film images using selectively determined system response gain calibration
Inventor: BRYANT STEVEN M
IPC: H04N1/401
Filed: 1999-12-06
Abstract: Gain factors for correcting pixel to pixel variations in system
response in a multi-pixel scanner array are determined by calculating gain factors
for a so-called "open gate" condition (with no film present), by calculating gain
factors for a so-called "Dmin" condition (looking at the minimum density of the
film), and by selectively combining the "open gate" gains and "Dmin" gains to
create composite set of gain factors which overcome the shortcomings of using
either original set of gains alone. The composite gain factors can be a
proportional sum of the two original sets of gains with the proportionality
changing on a pixel-by-pixel basis to select more of one set of gains or the other
set of gains. A number of discriminating functions are disclosed which may be
used to calculate the proportionality based on some understanding of how the
presence of film changes the characteristics of the scanning system.
