Patent EP-1382038-B1 (EP)
Inventor: HERRE JUERGEN
IPC: G11B20/00

Abstract: Prior to embedding a watermark in an audio signal, a spectral representation of the audio signal and a spectral representation of the watermark signal are determined. The spectral representation of the watermark signal is then processed on the basis of a psychoacoustic masking threshold of the audio signal. The processed watermark signal is combined with the audio signal to obtain an audio signal bearing a watermark. The spectral representation of the watermark signal is processed iteratively as follows: first a predetermined watermark initial value is selected, then the interference introduced into the spectral representation of the audio signal after a quantization of the spectral representation of the audio signal is determined and then, if the interference introduced by the watermark initial value exceeds the predetermined interference threshold, the watermark initial value is modified progressively until the resulting interference introduced into the spectral representation of the audio signal after quantization is less than or equal to the predetermined interference threshold. The modified watermark initial value at the end of the iteration is used as the processed watermark signal to be combined with the audio signal. As a result it is no longer possible for a watermark to be quantized out. Instead, full control over the energy of the watermark is achieved. A watermark can therefore be embedded in an audio signal to provide either the best possible degree of watermark detectability or the best possible audio quality.

Abstract: A TETRA mobile communications system in which transmissions can be made using the TETRA  pi /4 DQPSK modulation scheme and using another, different modulation scheme. Signalling on a  pi /4-DQPSK modulated channel is used to give an indication that a channel using the different modulation scheme is available. The another, different modulation scheme is preferably one that can provide an enhanced data transmission rate. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An autonomous gas powered ram comprising a main body having an internal cavity and an actuator mounted in this internal cavity. The actuator is movable in the cavity from a first operative mode to a second operative mode. Movement of the actuator towards the second operative mode is caused by the detonation of an explosive charge located within the cavity. The explosive charge is detonated upon detection of an operation failure, a fire or a hazardous operation condition. The ram also comprises a lock for preventing the actuator from moving to the first operative mode once the explosive charge has detonated.

Granted: 2009-01-14
Abstract: A pump especially designed for pumping blood comprises a bladder, the interior surface area and volume of which is changeable, i.e., it stretches and expands during the filling phase, and elastically contracts to its normal relaxed size during the ejection phase. The bladder has a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet. A device, such as a vacuum pump, alternately expands and contracts the interior surface area and volume of the bladder. Most of the interior surface area of the bladder expands and contracts in each cycle. One or more check valves or other means for causing substantially one-way fluid flow through the bladder are also provided. The pump of the invention decreases the likelihood of blood clots forming in the pump, decreases the risk of damage to blood cells, improves the pumping characteristics of the device, and decreases or eliminates the chance of foreign fluids passing into the blood stream should a tear or break occur in the bladder.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for color image processing using gamut mapping reduces halo artifacts by correcting terms in a gamut mapping algorithm. The color image may be represented by f, the in gamut image by g, the target gamut by C, and the gamut constraint by c. The method for reducing halo artifacts includes two correction steps. First a color distance term L2 in the gamut mapping algorithm is corrected (110). Second, a distance measure of an image gradient in the gamut mapping algorithm is corrected (115). The first correcting step comprises computing a function u = projectC(f). The second correcting step comprises computing a scaled down function for f. Next, a function g(x,y) is determined (125) that minimizes a functional comprising the color distance term and the image gradient term. The solution may be determined by iteration (130, 135, 140, 145) using a gradient descent operation by first initializing g0 = projectC(f), and then performing one or more iteration steps to compute g(x,y).
