Abstract: The invention provides a variable bit rate discrimination method and apparatus wherein a transmission bit rate of data received by a mobile station in a mobile communication which employs a spectrum spreading method can be discriminated readily to realize reduction in time required for decoding processing and miniaturization in circuit scale. A variable bit rate including four different transmission bit rates is used as a transmission rate of a traffic channel from a base station to a mobile station, and transmission data are encoded using convolutional encoder for error correction and transmitted. In the mobile station, received data are decoded for the four individual transmission bit rates using Viterbi decoders (302, 305, 308, 3011), and the decoded received data are compared with coded data sequences generated from the convolution codes to obtain path metric values which are sum totals of errors of the received data. Then, one of the transmission bit rates which exhibits a lowest one of the path metric values is selected as a bit rate used for transmission of the transmission data. Consequently, after Viterbi decoding, no further encoding is required.

Abstract: Excitation parameters for a digitized speech signal are determined by analysing the digitized speech signal. The digitized speech signal is divided into at least two frequency bands. A first preliminary excitation parameter is determined by performing a nonlinear operation on at least one of the frequency band signals to produce a modified frequency band signal and determining the first preliminary excitation parameter using the modified frequency band signal. A second preliminary excitation parameter is determined using a method different from the first method. The first and second preliminary excitation parameters are used to determine an excitation parameter for the digitized speech signal. The method is useful in encoding speech. Speech synthesized using the parameters estimated based on the invention generates high quality speech at various bit rates useful for applications such as satellite voice communication.

Abstract: A controller for a switched reluctance machine system and a method for reducing unwanted vibration and noise produced by a switched reluctance machine system. The energization of the voltage across a phase winding in the switched reluctance machine is controlled such that the voltage across the phase winding varies over time in a controlled manner from a first voltage level to a second voltage level following a predefined switching event. The control of the transition of the voltage across the phase winding from the first voltage level to the second voltage level is accomplished through application of a succession of timed voltage pulses to the phase winding at a predetermined point in time after the predefined switching event or through use of a capacitor smoothing circuit.

Abstract: A remote meter reading system uses transponders adapted to transmit a spread spectrum signal which is generated by frequency modulating data with a carrier signal. The resulting output signal is then spread by phase modulating with a pseudo-random code signal before transmission with the carrier suppressed. At the receiver, the original suppressed carrier is regenerated by squaring a first IF signal and then applying the output signal to a narrow band receiver from which the data can be recovered with a conventional FM discriminator.

Abstract: A method of simplifying the arithmetic operation in a global motion compensation process approximates the motion vector field of the whole image without using many parameters. Motion vectors in the global motion compensation are found by the interpolation and/or extrapolation of the motion vectors of a plurality of representative points 602, 603 and 604 having particular features in the spatial distance thereof. Since a shift operation can substitute the division for synthesizing a predicted image of global motion compensation, the processing using a computer or a dedicated hardware is simplified.

Abstract: An electrochemical process for hydrogenating an unsaturated fatty acid, mixtures of two or more fatty acids, or the unsaturated fatty acid constituents of an edible or non-edible oil's triglycerides is performed using a solid polymer electrolyte reactor. Membrane electrode assemblies consist of a cation exchange membrane onto which porous anode and cathode electrodes are attached. As the electrodes are permeable, reactant and products enter and leave the membrane/cathode and membrane/anode reaction zones via the back sides of the electrodes. Hydrogen is generated in situ by the electro-reduction of protons that are formed at the anode and which migrate through the ion exchange membrane for reaction with the fifty acids or fatty acid constituents. In the disclosed process, only protons (H+ ions) carry the current between the anode and the cathode. The need for a supporting electrolyte to conduct electricity has been circumvented. The disclosed process operates at a low to moderate temperature at atmospheric or moderate pressure without the use of a supporting electrolyte that will contaminate the oil. A novel partially hydrogenated oil product selected from the group consisting of a partially hydrogenated fatty acid, a partially hydrogenated triglyceride, and mixtures thereof is produced by the disclosed process. The product produced from the disclosed process has: a trans-isomer content lower than that of a similarly hydrogenated oil product formed in a high temperature chemical catalytic reaction process; a peroxide value of less than about 1.5%; free fatty acid content of less than about 0.02%; and, improved purity.
