Patent EP-2461588-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KONDO KENJI
IPC: H04N19/503
Filed: 2010-07-23
Abstract: The present invention relates to an image processing device and method whereby deterioration of effects of filter processing due to local control of filter processing when encoding or decoding can be suppressed. 
     A boundary control flag generating unit 132 of a control information generating unit 112 generates boundary control flags based on system specification information which a system specification managing unit 141 manages. A control unit 171 of a adaptive filter processing unit 113 determines a processing method for filter processing to be performed as to pixels nearby a slice boundary following the value of the boundary control flag. For example, selection is made to perform filter processing straddling slices or to perform filter processing closed at the present slice. 
     The present invention can be applied to an image processing device, for example.

Abstract: A method of finishing an optical element includes mounting the optical element in an optical mount having a plurality of fiducials overlapping with the optical element and obtaining a first metrology map for the optical element and the plurality of fiducials. The method also includes obtaining a second metrology map for the optical element without the plurality of fiducials, forming a difference map between the first metrology map and the second metrology map, and aligning the first metrology map and the second metrology map. The method further includes placing mathematical fiducials onto the second metrology map using the difference map to form a third metrology map and associating the third metrology map to the optical element. Moreover, the method includes mounting the optical element in the fixture in an MRF tool, positioning the optical element in the fixture; removing the plurality of fiducials, and finishing the optical element.

Abstract: During inline cleaning when filtering operation is suspended, a venting step is carried out in which the piping interior of a header piping system 3 is vented above the water surface FW, and the venting step is followed by a pressurized cleaning step wherein chemical solution is supplied to the header piping system 3 while removing gas from the piping interior, with continued supply of chemical solution to the header piping system 3 even after the piping interior has been sealed and the gas removal has been suspended, for pressurized cleaning of the membrane units 2. As a result, the supplied chemical solution ML spreads smoothly throughout the piping interior of the header piping system 3 so that it is equally supplied to each membrane unit 2 or hollow fiber membrane module 31.

Abstract: Un ensemble haut-parleur comporte un corps, un haut-parleur monté sur le corps et un réflecteur, espacé du haut-parleur et placé face à celui-ci. Le réflecteur est symétrique et comporte une région convexe centrale arquée pour réfléchir la pression vers le haut-parleur afin d'amplifier la pression retournée vers celui-ci. Le réflecteur comporte une région secondaire qui présente une section transversale arquée pour réfléchir les vibrations acoustiques se situant au-delà et à l'extérieur du corps. Le réflecteur est partiellement transparent, et une source lumineuse prévue de manière adjacente au réflecteur permet d'amener la lumière vers le réflecteur, au-delà et à l'extérieur du corps, pour éclairer une région recevant les vibrations acoustiques réfléchies par le réflecteur. Un ensemble multimédia est pourvu d'un ventilateur connecté exploitable à un générateur, de sorte que l'air entrant dans un corps par un orifice d'entrée et sortant par un orifice de sortie fait tourner le ventilateur de manière à fournir une source d'énergie électrique au dispositif multimédia.

Abstract: Disclosed are an SiC semiconductor element and manufacturing method for an SiC semiconductor element in which the interface state density of the interface of the insulating film and the SiC is reduced, and channel mobility is improved. Phosphorus (30) is added to an insulating film (20) formed on an SiC semiconductor (10) substrate in a semiconductor element. The addition of phosphorous to the insulating film makes it possible to significantly reduce the defects (interface state density) in the interface (21) of the insulating film and the SiC, and to dramatically improve the channel mobility when compared with conventional SiC semiconductor elements. The addition of phosphorus to the insulating film is carried out by heat treatment. The use of heat treatment to add phosphorous to the insulating film makes it possible to maintain the reliability of the insulating film, and to avoid variation in channel mobility and threshold voltage.

Abstract: A feed horn (1) for transmitting and receiving signals comprises a throat section (110) for converting the TE 11  mode to the HE 11  mode, an aperture section (130) opposite to the throat section (110), and a multiple-corrugation transition section (120) connected to the throat section (110). The transition section (120) comprises a plurality of radial corrugations (121) that substantially widen the feed horn (1) from the throat section (110) toward the aperture section (130) wherein the throat section (110), the aperture section (130) and the transition section (120) have a same axis of symmetry. The profile of horn corrugations (111, 121) is specially designed or tuned to maximize the amount of power captured by an illuminated reflector or lens and avoid excitation of bound states of electromagnetic energy in the horn (1) over the operating frequency band(s) of the horn. As a result of the increased captured power, for a given reflector- or lens-edge illumination taper, thereby also sidelobe-suppression level, the peak power gain of the reflector or lens increases while the peak power gain of the illuminating horn itself decreases. The present radially-corrugated horn may be used in wide- or multi-band reflector or lens antennas that would benefit from reduced frequency dependence of radiation patterns of the conventional radially-corrugated horn.
