Patent EP-0785683-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SUGA KAZUYUKI
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 1997-01-17
Abstract: When a scan line is interpolated, pixels on scan lines
above and below the scan line which are referenced is
interpolated in the horizontal direction. These pixels on
the upper and lower scan lines are divided into blocks.
Correlations between the upper and lower blocks with respect
to a target pixel to be interpolated are calculated. Based
on an evaluating function which is formed based on the
correlations but is corrected with reference to the distance
(or the direction) from the target pixel to each of the
blocks, an optimal interpolating direction is selected. In
addition, the difference in the pixel data between the
interpolated pixel and each of the pixels around the
interpolated pixel is checked in order to find interpolation
errors. When an interpolating pixel data is determined to
be erroneous, the pixel is interpolated using the pixels of
data above and below the pixel.

Title: Switching power supply apparatus
Inventor: TSUJI HITOSHI
IPC: H02J1/00
Filed: 1997-08-28
Abstract: A switching power supply apparatus designed for suitably controlled
stabilisation of its output. The apparatus has a charge control circuit (20). If the
voltage across an input capacitor (2) is lower than a set voltage (V CTL ) when a
main power supply switching element (4) turns on, a control circuit switching
element (11) turns on and energy is transferred from an input power source (1) by
conduction through the control circuit switching element (11) and an inductance
(12), and the inductance (12) stores transferred energy. When the main switching
element (4) turns off, the charge control circuit (20) turns off the control circuit
switching element (11) to supply the stored energy in the inductance (12) to the
input capacitor (2). If the voltage across the input capacitor (2) is equal to or
higher than the set voltage (V CTL ) when the main switching element turns on, the
control circuit switching element (11) is maintained in the off state and the
inductance (12) cannot store energy. The voltage across the input capacitor (2) is
thereby limited. In this manner, the voltage across the input capacitor is controlled
so as to be stabilized at the set voltage (V CTL ). This stabilises the output voltage of
the apparatus and improves its circuit efficiency.

Abstract: In the transferring of a digital data signal from a transmitter
to a receiver using the spread spectrum technique, the data
signal is modulo-2 added with a PN code sequence, the bit rate of
which is very much higher than the bit rate of the data signal. A
carrier is then modulated and transmitted with the-thereby
resulting spread data signal. In the receiver, the modulated
carrier is demodulated and the demodulated signal, to obtain the
digital data signal, is multiplied with a PN code sequence
produced in the receiver, coinciding and synchronised with the PN
code sequence of the transmitter. In the transmitter, the carrier
is modulated by FSK- or BPSK-modulation with the spread data
signal. In addition, modulation is carried out by means of the
respectively other of these two modulation types with a
synchronising signal representing the synchronising information
of the the PN code sequence. In the receiver the modulated
carrier is demodulated by means of a quadrature demodulator, from
the output signal of which then both the spread data signal and
also the synchronising signal can be derived by filtering.
