Title: Analogue transmission of video signals
IPC: H04N7/12
Filed: 1987-09-07
Abstract: A signal for transmission is compared 12 with a prediction signal to produce a prediction error signal which is amplitude limited 8 and compressed 14 before transmission in analogue form. The limiter output is added 26 to the production signal and the resultant applied to a prediction function circuit 24 to generate the prediction signal. At the receiver, the analogue signal is expanded 20 and applied to a similar adder 26 and prediction function circuit 24.

IPC: G01N15/08
Filed: 1981-07-09
Abstract: This invention concerns a method and an equipment to perform porosimetric analyses, in particular following known analyses performed by a so-called mercury methods, wherein volumetric variations of mercury placed in a vessel are recorded, said variations being due to a mercury penetration into the pores of a solid sample placed in the same vessel under mercury pressure variations. 
<??>According to the invention further analyses are carried-out by lowering mercury pressure from a maximum value substantially to ambient value, following a predetermined law in function of time, for instance and preferably a pressure reduction at constant speed, and by simultaneously detecting the volume variations of mercury which comes out of the sample pores when pressure decreases. Said detection, when performed in relation and/or in addition to the traditional one during pressure increase, allows to obtain a pressure-volume mercury curve which provides further data on the porosimetric characteristics of the sample, in particular related to the shape of the pores of same.
