Patent EP-1117324-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ADAIR EDWIN L

IPC: G10L17/00

Abstract: A system and method to identify a sound source among a group of sound sources. The invention matches the acoustic input to a number of signal models, one per source class, and produces a goodness-of-match number for each signal model. The sound source is declared to be of the same class as that of the signal model with the best goodness-of-match if that score is sufficiently high. The data are recorded with a microphone, digitized and transformed into the frequency domain. A signal detector is applied to the transient. A harmonic detection method can be used to determine if the sound source has harmonic characteristics. If at least some part of a transient contains signal of interest, the spectrum of the signal after rescaling is compared to a set of signal models, and the input signal's parameters are fitted to the data. The average distortion is calculated to compare patterns with those of sources that used in training the signal models. Before classification can occur, a source model is trained with signal data. Each signal model is built by creating templates from input signal spectrograms when they are significantly different from existing templates. If an existing template is found that resembles the input pattern, the template is averaged with the pattern in such a way that the resulting template is the average of all the spectra that matched that template in the past.

Abstract: Apparatus and a method for enhancing the interference resistance of so-called RFID systems, wherein identification messages delivered from an identification device are longer than the time for which an anticipated interference or disturbance is calculated to continue, and wherein the messages contain redundancy, such as a checksum. The messages are delivered from the identification device repetitively, and are redundancy checked. In the event of any discrepancy in the redundancy check, such as when the checksum is checked against the data content of the message and is found in disagreement, successive messages are checked bit for bit against each other. Any deviations between otherwise previously rejected messages are assumed to be due to external interference and are thus successively substituted until the redundancy check gives an accepted result, such as through the medium of a checksum check according to the so-called CRC method.

Abstract: In order to improve the adhesion of a circuit to a circuit forming board,
a separation film (4) comprising a base film and a coating layer formed on the base film
is joined to both the sides of the board (1). When a laser beam (5) is applied to form a
throughhole (6) in the board (1), a unified portion (7) of the board (1) and the separation
film (4) is formed around the throughhole (6). An energy beam is applied to the whole
or a part of the surface of a circuit formed at a circuit forming step to transfer a part
of the separation film. Thus, a high density board where the circuit strongly adheres to
the board can be realized in the manufacturing process of the circuit forming board.

Title: Method and apparatus for combustion of residual carbon in fly ash
Inventor: CRAFTON PAUL M
IPC: F23J15/02
Filed: 2000-11-02
Abstract: A system for combustion and removal of residual carbon within fly ash particles in which the fly ash particles are fed into a particulate bed within a reactor chamber. The fly ash particles are subjected to heat and motive air such that as the fly ash particles pass through the particulate bed, they are heated to a sufficient temperature to cause the combustion of the residual carbon within the particles. The fly ash particles thereafter are conveyed in a dilute phase for further combustion through the reactor chamber away from the particulate bed and exhausted to an ash capture. The fly ash is then separated from the exhaust air that conveys the ash in its dilute phase with the air being further exhausted and the captured fly ash particles being fed to a feed accumulator for re-injection to the reactor chamber or discharge for further processing.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur des tissus gonflables revêtus, plus particulièrement sur des airbags auxquels on a appliqué de très faibles quantités de revêtement, présentant une très faible perméabilité. Ces nouveaux tissus gonflables sont avant tout utilisés dans les coussins obstacles pour voitures qui nécessitent des propriétés de faible perméabilité (tels que les coussins airbags latéraux). Habituellement, des revêtements lourds, et par conséquent onéreux, de composés tels que le néoprène, les silicones et autres composés semblables, sont utilisés afin de fournir cette faible perméabilité requise. Ce nouveau tissu requiert un revêtement très fin et peu cher afin d'obtenir de tels niveaux de faible imperméabilité indispensable. Par conséquent, le nouvel airbag revêtu gonflable comporte un film laminé sur au moins une partie de la surface cible de tissu, ce film présentant une force de traction d'au moins 2000 et un allongement à la rupture d'au moins 180 %. Ce film permet d'obtenir un coussin airbag à faible perméabilité dont la durée de dégonflage est d'au moins 5 secondes et dont le volume d'emballage est peu élevé (ce qui permet un usage plus efficace de l'espace de stockage à l'intérieur d'un véhicule) pour le coussin airbag latéral cible.
