Patent EP-1415403-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KOLZE THOMAS J
IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 2002-06-10
Abstract: A filter settings generation operation includes sampling a communication channel to produce a sampled signal. The sampled signal is spectrally characterized across a frequency band of interest to produce a spectral characterization of the sampled signal. This spectral characterization may not include a signal of interest. The spectral characterization is then modified to produce a modified spectral characterization. Filter settings are then generated based upon the modified spectral characterization. Finally, the communication channel is filtered using the filter settings when the signal of interest is present on the communication channel. In modifying the spectral characterization, pluralities of spectral characteristics of the spectral characterization are independently modified to produce the modified spectral characterization. Modifications to the spectral characterization may be performed in the frequency domain and/or the time domain. One particular spectral modification that is performed is raising of the noise floor of the spectral characterization to meet a budgeted signal-to-noise ratio. Other spectral modifications include modifying spectral components corresponding to an extended interfering signal. In modifying these spectral characterizations, spectral components corresponding to a plurality of expected interfering signals may be modified.

Abstract: A method and device for marking golf balls that allows for the placement of a putting directional indicator (PDI) along the dynamic axis of a ball. While golfers could use the device to mark individual balls after they have been purchased (i.e. after they already have marks on them from the manufacturer), in preferred embodiments, the PDI is applied at the manufacturing stage and/or before the ball has other markings placed upon it. While the PDI could simply consist of one or more lines, in a preferred embodiment, the putting directional indicator may serve as an identifying mark for a manufacturer, distributor or consumer and may be designed to incorporate letters, words, symbols, short sentences, names, initials, numbers, images and photographs.
Patent EP-1405084-A2 (EP)
Inventor: PRECKEL HARTWIG
IPC: G01N35/10
Filed: 2002-07-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for monitoring the operational capability of a liquid transport device, such as a dispenser (10), whereby a response signal from a fluid transducer system, comprising a transducer (24) and a fluid-filled chamber (12), is compared with a reference value. The reference value is preferably recorded for a functioning, in other words, fault-free fluid transducer system. The response signal is different to the reference signal, for example, when air bubbles are located in the chamber (12). By means of comparing the response signal to the reference value, a corrective step, for example a cleaning cycle can be carried out on a threshold value being exceeded or not met.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for rapidly aging alcoholic beverages and to the beverages produced by the process. During the process, a consumable alcoholic feedstock is contacted with ultrasonic energy at a power of at least about 3 Watts/liter. If desired, a variety of flavorants can also be contacted with the alcohol and ultrasonic energy in order to flavor the beverage. The energy can push the maturation chemistry of the alcohol to completion quickly and produce a consumable product which is unique in characterization and can have flavor and smoothness surpassing that of consumable alcohols aged in slower, more traditional processes.

motor. The system further comprises a controller (100) for determining a desired value of an
assist torque, comprising a processor (101) and a memory (102). The controller (100) is configured to
obtain a moment due to gravity, acting on a joint of each human segment, based on

torque (τ a ) to be delivered to the joint to compensate for the moment due to gravitational
acceleration at the joint. 
     The method provides a natural subdivision between the voluntary actuators
which are responsible for forward progression of motion and the assist actuators which
are responsible for preserving static equilibrium. This subdivision may mitigate the
