Inventor: DOWNEY SIMON NICHOLAS
IPC: G10L17/02
Filed: 2000-02-25
Abstract: This invention relates to an improved method and apparatus for speaker recognition. In this invention, prior to comparing feature vectors derived from speech with a stored reference model the feature vectors are processed by applying a speaker dependent transform which matches the characteristics of a particular speaker's vocal tract. Features derived from speech which has very dissimilar characteristics to those of the speaker on which the transform is dependent may be severely distorted by the transform, whereas features from speech which has similar characteristics to those of the speaker on which the transform is dependent will be distorted far less.

Abstract: A plasma (13) is generated at a welding intended
position on a base material (2) by a laser (16) irradiated
to the base material (2). When a discharge electrode (12)
is at a minus potential, an arc discharge (4) takes place in
the direction of the plasma (13) and is induced at a
position irradiated with the laser (16). When the electrode
(12) is at a plus potential, arc electrons are generated
from a laser irradiated point and discharges to the
electrode (12). When a voltage applied between the
electrode (12) and the base material (2) is alternating, the
polarities of the electrode (12) and the base material (2)
alternately change so that the foregoing phenomena
alternately occur. When the base material (2) is at a minus
potential, an arc discharge (4) takes place from a laser
spot. Also, in regard to the arc discharge (4), since the
plasma (13) is generated by the laser (16), the stable arc
discharge (4) can be generated irrespective of the state of
the base material (2) or the state of the electrode (12).

Abstract: The invention relates to changing the characteristics of a signalling link in a communications system comprising at least two signalling points (A...D) and at least one signalling link through which signalling information is transmitted from a signalling point to an adjacent signalling point. In the method, the signalling traffic to be relayed is monitored at a signalling point and a modification procedure intended for modifying user connections is performed, in which a modification request message including an identifier value for identifying the object of modification is sent to an adjacent signalling point. In order for the system to be capable of flexibly adapting itself to a temporary increase in the signalling load, a set of identifier values that are used only for identifying the signalling links are allocated in advance to the signalling links between adjacent signalling points, and when the signalling traffic meets a given predetermined condition, said modification procedure is used for modifying a signalling link by inserting in the modification message to be sent an identifier value that belongs to said set.

Abstract: For a packet identification (PID) contained at a
variable possible location which comprises part only of a
32-bit packet header, a corresponding DES key value is
located. A table (10) stored in memory contains for each
DES key (12) (i) a packet header (14) comprising 32 bits
with a possible PID of e.g. 12, 9 or 8 bits contained at a
defined location and with zero values elsewhere, and (ii)
a mask value (16) also comprising 32 bits with ones
contained at the said defined location of the PID and
zeros elsewhere. The table is divided into regions (18)
for respective packet format types. An incoming packet
header at an input (22) is combined (26) with a first one
of the mask values from the table so as to provide a
combined value which consists of the value held in the
input packet header at the defined location and zeros
elsewhere. This combined value is compared (36) with the
corresponding packet header stored in the table. If they
are not equal, the combining and comparison is repeated
for the next row of the table. If they are equal, the
corresponding DES key value is read (32) from the table
and provided as an output (38). The system can cope with
variable PID formats within the packet header without
alteration to the hardware but merely with re-programming
of the table contents.

Abstract: The code space associated with the communication system is divided into at
least two subspaces where each subspace is assigned to a different mode
of operation. In one mode, such as voice mode, each user is given full
time access to a portion of the subspace associated with that mode of
operation. In a second mode, such as data mode, each user uses the
entire subspace associated with that mode on a time shared basis. It is
also possible to distribute the codes among the mode 1 and mode 2
subspaces on a dynamic basis. Unused codes in one of both subspaces may
be assigned to the other mode subspace. Additionally, in-sector handoffs
from one Walsh code to another are used to avoid unnecessary blockage of
user traffic caused by code space fragmentation.

Title: Linear bearing
Inventor: HIROSE KAZUYA
IPC: F16C29/04
Filed: 2001-05-08
Abstract: The present invention relates to a linear bearing, particularly a linear bearing that can
be used in applications requiring high rigidity, such as guide posts of presses and
molds. The present invention proposes a linear bearing (1), which comprises of a
guide shaft (2), and outer cylinder (3) capable of moving in the axial direction
relatively to the guide shaft outside the guide shaft, a plurality of rolling elements (4)
interposed between the guide shaft and the outer cylinder, and a cage (5) provided
between the guide shaft and the outer cylinder for retaining said rolling elements
disposed in the circumferential direction and in the axial direction of the shaft. Each
of the rolling elements is a roller having a convex circular arc surface of revolution
(8) formed on the cylindrical surface thereof. The inner surface (9) of the outer
cylinder is formed as a cylindrical surface, and the outer surface (10) of the guide
shaft is provided with axially extending guide grooves (12), each having a concave
cylindrical surface, corresponding to the respective rows of rollers disposed in the
axial direction. The radius (R) of curvature of the circular arc surface of revolution
(8) of each of the rollers is less than the radius (Ro) of the inner surface of the outer
cylinder and the radius of curvature (Ry) of the concave cylindrical surface of each
of the grooves formed in the guide shaft. The pitch (P) of the rollers disposed in the
circumferential direction is less than twice the width (B) of each roller. In this linear
bearing, it is preferred that the width of each of the rollers is kept smaller than the
outer diameter (⊘D) of the roller. The invention provides a linear bearing that has a
higher rigidity can be produced easily, is lower in production cost, and can be easily
assembled with a mating apparatus, compared with known types of linear bearings.
