Title: System and method for adaptive interference cancelling
Inventor: MARASH JOSEPH
IPC: H04B3/32
Filed: 1997-06-23
Abstract: An adaptive system and method for reducing interference in a signal received from an array of sensors. Adaptive filters are used to generate cancelling signals that closely approximate the interference present in the received signal. The adaptive filter weights are converted into the frequency domain where the frequency representation values in a selected frequency range are truncated to avoid signal leakage involving narrow band signals. Deodorizing filters are used to produce the cancelling signals having a flat frequency spectrum. Normalized power difference is used limit the operation of the adaptive filters to the case where there is some directional interference to be eliminated.

Abstract: A method of and an arrangement for obtaining quality indicators for an objective assessment of a degraded or output video signal (11) with respect to a reference or input video signal (10). The strength of edges or signal transitions (12; 13) in both the input and the output video signals (10; 11) are calculated (14) providing input and output edge signals (15; 16).

Title: Opening arrangement for liquids container
Inventor: CARLSSON LARS
IPC: B65D77/30
Filed: 1985-03-20
Abstract: Opening arrangements on packing containers are often of the type which comprises a prefabricated pouring opening. The cut edges appearing around the pouring opening must be protected, e.g. for reasons of hygiene, from the liquid contents present in the packing container, and this is generally done by a liquid-tight strip applied to the inside. A simpler manner of achieving this protection consists in ensuring that the thermplastic layers (3, 4), which in general are present on both sides of packing laminate, extend past the cut edge (12) and are sealed in a liquid-tight manner to each other. This can be achieved simplest if the hole- punching of the carrier layer of the material is done prior to the application of the thermoplastic layers.

Patent AU-4522601-A (AU)
Title: Technique for signal detection using adaptive filtering in mud pulse telemetry
Inventor: ABDALLAH ALI H
IPC: E21B47/18
Filed: 2000-12-08
Abstract: A mud pulse telemetry adaptive noise canceler (ANC) employs a primary transducer and a reference transducer downstream from a position of the primary transducer. The primary transducer receives a primary signal based on a combination of a transmitted pulse and a reflected pulse, and the reference transducer receives a reference signal based on the transmitted pulse. The ANC linearly relates the secondary signal to the primary signal by means of a fast recursive least squares algorithm and calculates a set of weighting coefficients. The finite impulse response (FIR) filter of the ANC uses the set of weighting coefficients to adaptively noise cancel correlated portions between the primary signal and the secondary signal to produce an ANC output signal based on uncorrelated portions between the primary signal and the secondary signal.

Title: Process for the purification and crystallisation of Iopamidol
Inventor: HEGGIE WILLIAM
IPC: C07C231/24
Filed: 1996-05-27
Abstract: The present invention describes a process for the purification and crystallisation of lopamidol, wherein 1-propanol, or 2-propanol, is added to an aqueous solution of lopamidol followed, if necessary, by azeotropic distillation to reduce the quantity of water in relation to the quantity of propanol, and thereby ensure an high yield. The aqueous solution can be prepared either by the dissolution of crude lopamidol in water or directly from the reaction in which the lopamidol is formed. The present invention presents advantages for the routine production of lopamidol since the crystallisation is straighfforward to perform, can be easily controlled and is reproducible at an industrial scale.
