Title: Regenerative rf bidirectional amplifier system
IPC: H04B3/38
Filed: 1991-01-08
Granted: 1992-12-17
Abstract: A regenerative RF bi-directional communications system (10) is provided for establishing RF coverage within a RF block tunnel area (12). The system uses a plurality of cascaded amplifier stages (18) for periodically regenerating signals which are transmitted and received along a series of radiating cable length (16) which link base station transceivers (14) to hand-held or like mobile communication units. An intermediate frequency distribution system is used so that the required level of amplification is achieved through the several cascaded amplifier stages (18) at the level of low-power IF signals generated from the original RF signals in conjunction with the appropriate oscillator and pilot signals. The IF distribution system restricts the cascading effect occurring due to the plurality of cascaded amplifier stages on the relatively low-power IF signals, thereby producing a negligible amount of intermodulation. <IMAGE>

Title: Computationally efficient adaptive bit allocation for encoding method and apparatus with allowance for decoder spectral distortions
Inventor: FIELDER LOUIS DUNN
IPC: G10L19/035
Filed: 1994-07-15
Granted: 1997-05-01
Abstract: The invention relates in general to low bit-rate encoding and decoding of information such as audio information. More particularly, the invention relates to computationally efficient adaptive bit allocation and quantization of encoded information useful in high-quality low bit-rate coding systems. In audio applications, a digital split-band encoder splits an input signal into frequency subband signals having bandwidths commensurate with the critical bandwidths of the human auditory system, quantizes the subband signals according to values established by an allocation function, and assembles the quantized subband signals into an encoded signal. The allocation function establishes allocation values in accordance with psychoacoustic principles with allowance for decoding synthesis filter bank spectral distortions. In one embodiment, an allocation function establishes allocation values using a psychoacoustic masking threshold generated by estimating the power spectral density (PSD) of the input signal, generating an excitation pattern by applying a basilar-membrane spreading function to the PSD, adjusting the excitation pattern by an amount equal to a sensitivity function which specifies a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) sufficient to achieve psychoacoustic masking, comparing the level of the adjusted pattern to the threshold of hearing and generating the psychoacoustic masking threshold which is equal to the larger of the two. An allocation function may allow for decoder synthesis filter bank spectral distortions in any of a number of ways such as by adapting the sensitivity function.

Abstract: An apparatus for crimping a continuous tow of textile material including a pair of molding rollers (20) for initial molding and pulling of the tow (12), a pair of crimping rollers (40) for molding and feeding the two to a stuffer box crimper (60) wherein the tow is crimped. The novel pair of molding rollers (20) includes the two spaced rotatable rollers (22,24) cooperating with a side plate (30,31) at each end of the nip between the rollers to define a rectangular space (26). Tow material (12) is passed through the space (26) wherein the tow is pressed and molded to the rectangular configuration. After the initial molding, the tow (12) is passed through the pair of crimping rollers (42,44) and fed into the stuffer box (60) wherein the tow is crimped. Using the novel apparatus to crimp the tow drastically improves the uniformity of the crimped tow and the processibility or the tow. Furthermore, the novel apparatus allows for a significant reduction in the forces applied to the molding rollers (40) and crimping rollers (20) resulting in the reduction of filament distortion in the tow material. <IMAGE>

Patent JP-H058426-B2 (JP)
IPC: G03G15/00
Filed: 1983-02-10
Abstract: PURPOSE:To prevent set copy magnification from being erased by inhibiting magnification setting operation in an interrupting copy mode. CONSTITUTION:When an interruption mode is entered with an interruption key pressed, a copying operation is stopped to set a stop flag, the current numbers in memories Q1-Q8 for the remaining number of copies, exposure level, and magnification are saved in memories respectively, and a numeric display part 72 performs blank display. Therefore, when the interruption key is pressed, the copying machine stops after completing the current copying operation, and enters a stand-by state. In this state, the set numeral of copy magnification can be accessed by operating a selection key, but inhibited from being updated. Thus, the set copy magnification is prevented from being erased.
