Abstract: Presented herein are systems and methods for attenuating flow ripple generated by a hydraulic pump. In certain aspects, a method and system for operating a hydraulic positive displacement pump according to a stabilized command profile are disclosed, such that flow ripple generated by operation of the pump according to the stabilized command profile is attenuated as compared to operation of the pump according to a corresponding nominal command profile. In other aspects, a pressure-balanced active buffer is disclosed that allow for at least partially cancelling flow ripple in a hydraulic circuit comprising a pump. In another aspect, a method for generating ripple maps for a pump is disclosed. Such ripple maps may be used, for example, to determine the stabilized command profile used to operate the pump, or may be used by the pressure-balanced active buffer to counteract ripple in the hydraulic circuit.

Patent EP-0152535-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04N17/06
Filed: 1982-09-14
Abstract: Method and means for evaluating the quality of audio 
and/or video transfer characteristics of a device upon 
which, or through which, audio and/or video information is 
contained, or passes, respectively. Both method and appa­
ratus concern the evaluation of the quality of information 
transfer in the recording and playing back of a recording 
medium or in the transferring of audio and/or video informa­
tion through an information handling device referred to as 
a throughput device. Unit evaluation is accomplished by 
establishing an input signal of known content, measuring 
selected parameters of selected parts of the input signal, 
feeding the input signal to the unit under test, measuring the 
parameters of parts of the output signal from the unit under 
test corresponding to the same selected parts of the input 
signal, and comparing the selected parameters of the input 
signal with the corresponding parameters of the output 
signal. Whether monitoring the quality of the signal transfer 
characteristics of a throughput device, a magnetic tape 
containing program material, or a video disc, master disc 
or replica, a "signature" is created for the unit under test, 
and subsequent analysis of the unit as it progresses along 
a production line or of a copy made on the same or alternate 
recording medium results in a second "signature" which is 
compared against the first signature to make a determina­
tion as to the quality of the signal handling or transfer 
characteristics of the unit. In this manner, out-of-tolerance 
conditions can be automatically detected, thereby eliminat­
ing subjectivity and providing consistency in the quality 
level of device testing.

IPC: G03F3/08
Filed: 1985-07-04
Abstract: A color transform enables color-image information to 
be recorded, displayed and otherwise processed with exact­
ing control of color relative to a selected display. The trans­
form enables a single-exposure photographic print of image 
information produced in pre-press equipment to predict with 
accuracy an ink-on-paper print of that information. Color-­
image information is transformed with a technique that 
produces output information for each output color com­
ponent or other parameter at each point in response to up 
to all input parameters at that point. The output information 
may include approximate transform values and finalizing 
values. The technique can be implemented for real-time 
conversion with look-up tables storing approximate trans­
form values and storing interpolation factors for computing 
finalizing values.

Patent EP-0206463-A3 (EP)
Title: High-frequency sound generating apparatus
IPC: H04R25/00
Filed: 1986-04-17
Abstract: Sound generating apparatus, for example for use as an audiometer, comprises a series resonant circuit (12-17) having electrode terminals (10) for application to a patient so as to include the impedance of the patient in the resonant circuit. An oscillator (10-26) supplies to the resonant circuit a carrier signal at a high frequency determined by the resonant circuit. A modulator (22) amplitude-modulates the carrier signal at an audio frequency provided by an adjustable-frequency generator (27-29). An attenuator (23) is controllable to adjust the amplitude of the carrier signal to a selected value. An A/D converter (58, 31) generates a first digital representation of the actual amplitude of the carrier signal, and a manually-operable selector (32, 33) provides a second digital representation of a selected value of the carrier signal amplitude. A central processor (31), responsive to the first and second digital representations, controls the attenuator to maintain the amplitude of the carrier signal at the selected value. The audio modulation frequency is similarly controlled by comparing a digital representation of the desired frequency, as set up on a manually-operable selector (59, 60), with a digital representation of the actual frequency. The current and modulation frequency selectors are preset stepwise by manual rotation of rotors (40) having detents formed by cooperating magnetic elements (46, 47) which establish rest positions corresponding to steps to which the selector may be set. Each selector has spaced-apart segments (42) which cooperate with a pair of optointerruptors (43, 44) to feed signals to a logic circuit (48-57) which generates stepping pulses and pulses indicating the direction of adjustment of the selector.

Title: A clamping circuit for an analogue to digital converter
IPC: H03M1/00
Filed: 1986-10-17
Abstract: The clamping circuit clamps a threshold of an ADC to a signal level just below the black level of a television signal. 
<??>During the blanking period, a negative-going peak is superimposed on the input signal to produce the waveform 76. Each time this crosses the 0000,0001 threshold of the ADC, the polarity of the output of a comparator changes (see the middle waveform). The comparator compares the ADC output and a reference value. 
<??>The input signal is biased according to the integral of the comparator output. When signal levels are stable, the comparator output is symmetrical, its integral is zero and no change occurs in the biassing. 
<??>If signal levels drift, the negative going peak crosses the threshold for the second time relatively sooner or later. The comparator output becomes assymmetric and has a non-zero integral. Consequently, the biassing level changes to compensate for the drift.
