Abstract: A method of manufacturing a splined member having a coating of a material applied thereto minimizes the amount of undesirable backlash and broken back when the splined member is assembled with another splined member, such as to form a slip joint. A first splined member, such as a male splined slip yoke shaft having a coating of a low friction material, is provided having splines that include major diameter portions and side portions. The first splined member is supported on an apparatus including a turning tool and a broaching tool. The turning tool is initially operated to engage and remove portions of the coating provided on the major diameter portions of the splines of the splined member. Then, the broaching tool is operated to engage and remove portions of the coating provided on the side portions of the splines of the splined member. As a result, when the first splined member is assembled with a corresponding second splined member to form a slip joint, the amount of broken back and backlash therebetween is minimized.

Abstract: Constant-bitrate (CBR) rate control is very useful for real-time video transmission. However, it is difficult to realise a good CBR rate control in an MPEG4-AVC video codec. According to the invention, an adapted ρ-domain rate control processing for real-time rate control is applied, whereby p is the percentage of zero amplitude transform coefficients following quantisation. A couple of tables are used for mapping between the quantisation parameters and p. A detailed analysis at transform level is carried out in order to get the slope of the relationship between the bitrate and p. The slope of the linear model is constrained by a look-ahead procedure with respect to the neighbour frames or blocks.

Abstract: A distributed synchronization method in a communication network is disclosed. A number of stations exchange messages between themselves. A synchronization pattern characteristic of the clock reference of the sender is inserted into each message transmitted by a sender. The clock reference of each station is updated with the clock reference that it receives from another station of the network if, and only if, the received time is leading the clock reference. The update is done by calculating the difference ΔX=T′a−Ta between the time of sending T′a of the message received by a station A and the time of reception Ta of the same message by the station B, and applying a correction 0<ΔY<=ΔX if the received time of sending is leading by a quantity of at least τ (ΔX>τ>0).
