Abstract: The invention relates to a method for representing echo signals that are obtained with the aid of an ultrasonic test apparatus used for non-destructively testing a test piece. Said ultrasonic test apparatus comprises a probe, especially an angled probe, a monitor with a display device for representing the received echo signals in an cross-sectional image such that at least one front face and a back wall of the test piece can be recognized. A flaw is detected from different arrangements of the angular probe, represented, and an error signal is determined. The test images are stored and then represented in a superimposed manner in an evaluation image such that the first and the second error signal can be recognized.

Title: Methods for encoding or decoding in a videoconference system in presence of noisy image acquisition
Inventor: SHAH MOHAMMAD A
IPC: H04N7/50
Filed: 2004-07-30
Granted: 2008-10-15
Abstract: Disclosed herein in one embodiment is an adaptive coding threshold algorithm for a videoconference system which alleviates problems due to the erroneous recoding of stationary areas of images caused by image noise. The algorithm, which is preferably implementable on a videoconference encoder, assesses the coding parameters for a current macroblock and the coding parameters for that same macroblock the last time it was coded. If for both macroblocks the coding was non-intra, with a Ä0,0Ü motion vector, and with a low quantization parameter, a determination is made that the current macroblock depicts a stationary image. Accordingly, the algorithm increases the coding threshold (T1) for the blocks within that macroblock, so that it becomes more difficult for those particular blocks to be recoded. This renders the block with stationary content less susceptible to erroneous recoding, while preserving system bandwidth and improving image quality. Additionally, related noise assessment techniques can be employed at the encoder or decoder without the adjustment of the coding threshold (T1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a high-density recording medium and a method and apparatus for controlling data playback thereof. Playback control information, such as channel bit length information, is recorded in a burst cutting area (BCA) of a high-density optical disc in a wobble type. When the high-density optical disc is reproduced, the playback control information is detected in a push-pull signal detection mode and the optimum data playback operation corresponding to the recording capacity of the optical disc is performed on the basis of the detected playback control information. Alternatively, bit error rates (BERs) are calculated while a plurality of predetermined bit detection modes are sequentially performed, one of the bit detection modes corresponding to the smallest one of the calculated BERs is selected and the data playback operation is performed in the selected bit detection mode. Therefore, it is possible to perform a data playback operation optimal to the recording capacity of a BD-ROM (Blu-ray Disc-ROM) even through disc information (DI) is recorded in a PIC (Permanent Information & Control data) zone of the BD-ROM in a recording format necessitating a decoding process and the recording capacity is any of different values such as 23 Gbytes, 25 Gbytes, 27 Gbytes, etc.

Abstract: A cryogenic detector device includes a sensor based on a low-temperature effect and measures the temperature increase produced by the introduction of energy, such as an X-ray quantum. The smaller the thermal capacity of the sensor, the greater the temperature increase resulting from the introduction of energy and the higher the energy resolution of the sensor. Because the thermal capacity is temperature dependent, the sensor is operated in the range of comparatively small thermal capacities, i.e., in a range between 50 and 400 mK. Contrary to conventional assumptions, it was found that by keeping the three-dimensional size of the individual sensors sufficiently small and by increasing the effective sensor area, acceptable measurement results were achieved even at higher operating temperatures of the sensors in a range between 2.4 and 4.2 degrees Kelvin.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for reading a magneto-optical recording medium comprising a first storage layer and a second storage layer and a read-out layer, wherein an expanded domain leading to a read-out pulse is generated in the read-out layer by copying a mark region from the first or second storage layer to the read-out layer through heating by a radiation power and with the help of an external magnetic field. The radiation power is set to a first value for reading from the first storage layer and to a second value for reading from the second storage layer. A parameter indicating crosstalk between the first and second storage layers is determined during a reading operation, and the radiation power is then controlled on the basis of the determined parameter. Hence, crosstalk between the first and second storage layers can be reduced by keeping the read-out temperature close to the compensation temperature of the other storage layer which is not read. The invention further relates to a recording medium for use in said method and apparatus.

Abstract: A steering device for a vehicle using a steer-by-wire system, in which the front wheels are controlled and steered by computer program processing. A displacement-torque converting section (51) converts a steering angle θ into a steering torque Td in an exponential relation. A torque-lateral acceleration (52) converting section converts steering torque Td into an expected lateral acceleration Gd (or expected yaw rate Ϝd, expected turning curvature ρd) as the quantity of state of motion of the vehicle, the lateral acceleration Gd being in a power law relation and being capable of being sensed by the human. A steering angle converting section (53) calculates a target steering angle δd required for the vehicle to move at the expected lateral acceleration Gd (or expected yaw rate Ϝd, expected turning curvature ρd). A steering control section (60) controls the steering wheel to the target steering angle δd. Since a driver performs steering operation while feeling lateral acceleration, operation of a vehicle is facilitated.
