Abstract: A method for providing an optimized audio quality communication session between a near end and at least a far end telecommunications terminals requires that at least the codec of the near end telecommunications terminal being able to apply two alternative encoding techniques belonging to the same audio compression protocol. When the near end telecommunications terminal will receive a data packet from the far end telecommunications terminal after a setup of the communication session during which the audio compression protocol will be set, it will determine out of said received data packet the encoding technique used by the far end telecommunications terminal. This is performed by analyzing the content of the header of the received packet. In case the determined encoding technique is based on a different alternative encoding technique of the audio compression protocol used initially by the near end telecommunications terminal, then an adaptation will be performed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for manufacturing compound material wafers, comprising the steps: providing an initial donor substrate (1), forming a predetermined splitting area (4) in the initial donor substrate (1), attaching the initial donor substrate (1) to a handle substrate (2), and detaching the donor substrate (1) at the predetermined splitting area (4), thereby transferring a layer (6) of the initial donor substrate (1) onto the handle substrate (2) to form a compound material wafer (10). To improve the cost effectiveness of the method the method further comprises depositing a layer (12) onto the remainder (9) of the donor substrate after the detaching step to recover at least partially the thickness of the initial donor substrate (1) and reusing the donor substrate (1) with the deposited layer (12) as initial donor substrate (1) in step a). The invention also relates to electronic, opto-electranic or optical components comprising at least a part of the compound material wafer fabricated according to the method.

Abstract: A device is described for actuating the charge-cycling valves (V) in reciprocating internal combustion engines, consisting of a housing (G); a cam (N) mounted in the housing (G) in a revolute joint (ng) so as to be able to rotate, the rotational movement of which cam is derived from a crankshaft; an intermediate member (Z) activated by this cam (N) by way of a first cam joint (zn); and a power take-off member (A) that transfers the movement to the valve (V), and is connected to act with the intermediate member (Z), directly or via other transfer elements, and at least one other cam joint (za) is provided within the active connection from the first cam joint (zn) to the power take-off member (A), whereby this other cam joint (za) is formed by a cam (Kz or Ka, respectively) on one of the two gear mechanism members (Z, A) that form the cam joint (za), in and of themselves, the shape of which cam has at least one point of inflection (W) in the contact region in which a valve lift is produced, whereby the point of inflection (W) is disposed in the region of the cam (Kz or Ka, respectively) that describes the greatest possible valve lift. In order to minimize the forces, i.e. moments between the gear mechanism members, and thus to keep the reactive forces in the system as low as possible, it is proposed that the point of inflection (W) be disposed in such a manner that the surface normal in the contact point, at which the greatest valve lift is achieved, is approximately equal to the surface normal in the contact point, at which the highest valve acceleration occurs.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for testing a static random access memory (SRAM) array for the presence of weak defects. A 0/1 ratio is first written to the memory array (step 100 ), following which the bit lines BL and BLB are pre-charged and equalized to a threshold detection voltage (step 102 ). The threshold detection voltage is programmed according to the 0/1 ratio of cells, so as to take into account specific cell criterion and/or characteristics. Next, the word lines associated with all of the cells in the array are enabled substantially simultaneously (step 104 ), the bit lines are then shorted together (step 106 ), the word lines are disabled (step 108 ) and the bit lines are released (step 110 ). Following these steps, the contents of the SRAM array are read and compared against the original 0/1 ratio (step 112 ). 10 Any cells whose contents do not match the original 0/1 ratio (i.e. those whose contents have flipped) are marked or otherwise identified as "weak" (step 114 ).

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for embedding a watermark into an input media signal. A plurality of sub-band signals of a sub-band encoded input signal is obtained; preferably by de-multiplexing of the corresponding bitstream. A set of sub-band signals is filtered by a sub-band filter ( 507 ) which has a response associated with the watermark. The sub-band filter ( 507 ) thereby generates a set of filtered sub-band signals which are combined into an output signal having the desired watermark. The output signal is preferably a compressed sub-band bitstream signal. A low complexity approach for embedding a watermark into a media signal by filtering in the sub-band domain is thus achieved obviating the requirement for decoding and re-encoding of the media signal.
