Abstract: A coding method comprises a hierarchical coding step of performing hierarchical coding for data to be coded to generate first and second code sequences, each comprising a plurality of code layers; a storage control step of storing the first and second code sequences in a storage region of a code storage means having successive addresses, respectively from opposed ends of the storage region, according to priority given to the code layers; and a priority judge step of storing a code layer in either of the first and second code sequences, which code layer has the highest priority at present, prior to the other code sequence, when an overlap occurs in the storage control step. Therefore, the code layers are stored in the storage element having limited capacity with high efficiency, whereby the utilization efficiency of the storage capacity is improved.

Title: Apparatus for laser-discharge imaging and focusing elements for use therewith
Inventor: SOUSA JOHN G
IPC: B41C1/10
Filed: 1997-02-14
Abstract: A focusing assembly includes features that allow numerical aperture to be reduced and optimized by reducing aberrations and ghost reflections and easily controlling stop size, thereby increasing depth-of-focus. The assembly includes a single, bi-aspheric focusing lens that optimizes image quality at a specific off-axis field point. Passage of excessively divergent radiation is prevented by a baffle having a sharp, flared edge that minimizes reflection. A second aperture or baffle can be included to restrict high-divergence radiation emerging from the bi-aspheric focusing lens. All interior surfaces of the focusing assembly are preferably blackened, once again to minimize internal reflections.
