Patent AU-705194-B2 (AU)
Title: Multi-channel predictive subband coder using psychoacoustic adaptive bit allocation
Inventor: SMYTH STEPHEN M
IPC: H04B14/04
Filed: 1996-11-21
Granted: 1999-05-20
Abstract: A subband audio coder employs perfect/non-perfect reconstruction filters, predictive/non-predictive subband encoding, transient analysis, and psycho-acoustic/minimum mean-square-error (mmse) bit allocation over time, frequency and the multiple audio channels to encode/decode a data stream to generate high fidelity reconstructed audio. The audio coder windows the multi-channel audio signal such that the frame size, i.e. number of bytes, is constrained to lie in a desired range, and formats the encoded data so that the individual subframes can be played back as they are received thereby reducing latency. Furthermore, the audio coder processes the baseband portion (0-24 kHz) of the audio bandwidth for sampling frequencies of 48 kHz and higher with the same encoding/decoding algorithm so that audio coder architecture is future compatible.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/SE87/00612 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 2, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 2, 1989 PCT Filed Dec. 17, 1987 PCT Pub. No. WO88/04547 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 30, 1988.The present invention relates to a sanitary napkin consisting of an absorbent core (1) surrounded by a casing built up of two surface layers which are joined together around the absorbent core and of which surface layers the one facing the wearer's body is liquid permeable whereas the other one (2) is liquid impermeable. According to the invention, elastic means (5,6) are applied to the liquid impermeable surface layer (2). The resiliency afforded to the sanitary napkin in this manner will urge the napkin in its applied condition to press against the outer genitals of the wearer.

Title: Digital anti-counterfeiting software method and apparatus
Inventor: ALASIA ALFRED
IPC: G06K19/00
Filed: 1996-11-26
Granted: 1999-12-02
Abstract: This invention relates generally to a method and apparatus, as implemented by a software program on a computer system, for digitally producing counterfeit-deterring scrambled or coded indicia images, typically in a printed form. This method and system are capable of combining a source image with a latent image so the scrambled latent image is visible only when viewed through a special decoder lens. The digital processing allows different latent images to be encoded according to different parameters. Additionally, latent images might be encoded into single component colors of an original visible image, at various angles from each other.

Title: Coating glass
Inventor: ALBACH EBERHARD R
IPC: C23C16/54
Filed: 1988-02-08
Granted: 1989-09-14
Abstract: A gas distributor beam includes a plenum and distribution slot surrounded by a generally V-shaped cooling fluid chamber. The circulation of a suitable cooling fluid tends to maintain the plenum and distribution slot at a temperature below four hundred degrees Fahrenheit for the distribution of diborane gas to an upper surface of a heated glass ribbon. Carbon blocks are utilized to stabilize the glass temperature above nine hundred fifty degrees Fahrenheit for the proper deposition of boron on the surface of the glass. Insulation between the carbon blocks and the outer walls of the cooling fluid chamber minimize heat transfer and the shape of the cooling chamber minimizes the exposure of the glass to the lower temperatures of the cooling chamber.

Title: Child resistant closure with energy planes
Inventor: WILSON WOODROW S
IPC: B65D55/02
Filed: 1988-03-29
Granted: 1989-12-14
Abstract: A child resistant dispensing closure (10) of the type having a cap (12) and a spout (14) mounted thereon for rotation about a substantially horizontal axis. The upper surface of the cap (12) is provided with a pattern of ribs. The upper surface of the spout (14) is provided with a plurality of ribs (54, 56, 58), each of which has a distinct energy plane (60, 62, 64). All but one of the energy planes (62, 64) fails to allow sufficient purchase on their respective ribs (56, 58) and fails to produce the proper force vector required in order to initiate rotation of the spout (14) when a manual force is applied to the latter energy planes (62, 64). Only one of the energy planes (60) is adapted so as to allow sufficient purchase and to produce the proper force vector (c) required in order to initiate rotation of the spout (14) when a manual force is applied to said one plane (60). The plurality of ribs (54, 56, 58) provided on the spout (14), in conjunction with the pattern of ribs provided on the cap (12), blend together and serve to distract and confuse a child or other individual of reduced mental capacity, thereby effectively reducing to negligible the probability that the child or other individual would inadvertently discover the sole energy plane (60) capable of realizing rotation of the spout (14) while exploring the dispensing closure (10) with the fingers, fingernails, teeth or other objects. The spout (14) may be mounted on the cap (12) in such a manner as to require relatively little rotational torque for rotation, thereby making the dispensing closure (10) convenient and easy to utilize by adults, even those not possessing normal physical strengths.

Said tab has a hook (12) which can be folded over a wall (16) running perpendicular to the surface of the inside of the plate (7) and around a through-hole (2). When the label plate (5) has been inserted and the hook (12) of the tab (3) has been folded over the said peripheral wall (16), a key (4) having been fitted onto said hook, the two plates (6, 7) are folded together.

Date Sep. 28, 1995For implementing frequency-hopping in a base station, of a digital cellular radio system a first signal modulated by a base band data signal and transmitted on a first carrier frequency. The signal is divided in the time domain into several time slots, of which one time slot transmits the common control channel of the base station equipment and the other time slots transmit information regarding different connections. For an economical implementation of frequency-hopping in a base station having one transceiver unit, the base station further transmits a second signal modulated by the same base band data signal, on a second carrier frequency. The second signal is divided in the time domain into several time slots, each of which transmits the same information as the first signal, except the time slot that transmits the common control channel of the base station equipment. The second carrier frequency (27) is changed time-slot-specifically so that its frequency is the same as, or different from, the first carrier frequency.

Abstract: Methods for detecting glucagon antagonists through the use of recombinant DNA techniques are provided. Briefly, subsequent to the expression of glucagon analogs within suitable host cells, the analogs are exposed to a glucagon receptor coupled to a response pathway in the presence of native glucagon. A reduction in the stimulation of the response pathway resulting from the binding of the glucagon analog to the glucagon receptor relative to the stimulation of the response pathway by native glucagon alone indicates the presence of a glucagon antagonist. Glucagon antagonists identified and isolated through the methods are also provided.
