Patent EP-1850176-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YAMAGUCHI NOBORU
IPC: G01N21/956
Filed: 2007-03-27
Abstract: A defect inspection method is adapted to inspect a defect generated in a main pattern (56) of a photomask (50). The main pattern (56) includes a repetitive pattern in which unit patterns are periodically arranged. The method forms, an auxiliary pattern (57) for inspection simultaneously with forming the main pattern (56). The auxiliary pattern (57) includes a repetitive pattern (51) having a period different from that of the main pattern (56). The method irradiates a light onto the auxiliary pattern (57) at a predetermined incident angle and receives diffracted light generated by the auxiliary pattern (57) by an observation apparatus to detect a defect of the auxiliary pattern (57), thereby determining the presence of a defect of the main pattern (56).

Abstract: A nonresponse-ratio determining unit (601b) determines, after starting a signal transmission to an electronic tag, whether a ratio of number of nonresponses from the electronic tag exceeded a predetermined value in a first predetermined period. A signal-transmission terminating unit (601f) terminates, when it is determined that the ratio of the number of nonresponses exceeded the predetermined value, the signal transmission for a second predetermined period. A radio-frequency-identification interrogator (601d) performs, after a lapse of the second predetermined period, a communication-channel selecting process for restarting the signal transmission to the electronic tag.

Abstract: A method of obtaining a quantisation value for macroblocks of a picture for video compression includes estimating 11, for a plurality of quantisation values, a size of the picture in terms of a sum of all quantised coded coefficients. A linear relationship between a size of a macroblock and Activity of the macroblocks is assumed 12, where the Activity of the macroblock is the number of coded coefficients in the macroblock before discarding any coefficients or quantising the remaining coefficients. The macroblocks are divided 13 into groups by their Activity level such that substantially a same number of pre-quantisation coefficients are in each group. An average Activity of each group is determined 14. A quantisation value for each group is determined 15 from the assumed linear relationship between a number of bits per macroblock and Activity of the macroblocks and the average Activity of the group, as imposed by a predetermined bit rate.
