Abstract: In a technique for motion compensation encoding, a digital video signal is pre-filtered in a first filter and motion information derived from the same video signal pre-filtered in a second filter is used to encode the first-filtered video signal. More specifically, a received digital video signal is filtered in a first pre-filter (101), which has a controllable filter characteristic that varies in response to several characteristics of the received digital video signal. The originally received digital video signal also is filtered in a second pre-filter (102). A motion vector is derived (105) from motion that is detected in the second filtered signal, and the first filtered video signal is motion compensation encoded using the derived motion vector of the second filtered video signal.

Abstract: Electric motors (102) having controllable induced armature fields, such as induction motors and synchronous reluctance motors, are used in power assisted steering systems for motor vehicles. Power is conserved by tailoring induced armature fields or rotor flux in accordance with the speeds of motor vehicles including the power assisted steering system. In particular, one or more flux programs or maps are provided for the power assisted steering system with the flux map or program being accessed or addressed by means of the vehicle speed. During low speed operation of the motor vehicle, for example to perform parking manoeuvres where speeds are near zero and steering forces are near or at maximum, the rotor flux is programmed to maximum. For high speed operation, such as highway and rural motor vehicle operation, the rotor flux is programmed to a low value so that internal loss mechanisms in the power assist motor and motor controller are minimised yet provide sufficient rotor flux to meet steering needs such as lane changes, obstacle avoidance and the like. Various transition speeds and flux transition curves provide smooth transitions between high flux levels and low flux levels.

IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1996-01-16
Abstract: A data transmission method quickly and reliably transfers data (e.g., a computer file) from a source to recipients. While the frames are being transmitted, negative acknowledgments from recipients are received by the source. These acknowledgments indicate which frames require retransmission. After all frames have been transmitted out, a retransmission is performed by the source for only those frames which the acknowledgments indicate require retransmission. Additional retransmissions can occur. This multi-pass data transfer technique requires only negative acknowledgements to be sent by the recipients. Features include the ability to set the transmission rate and to define multicast groups. Also, it is possible to determine the capacity of links of unknown capacity using a "multicast network probe" feature of the invention, and to determine the frame error rates of known-capacity links by utilizing the same feature. A "multicast ping" feature of the invention can be used to determine the connectivity between a source and members of a multicast group. "Speed groups" can be set up after determining link capacities, or if they are already known, whereby the recipients connected to the source by the fastest links receive all of the data while slower-link recipients receive only a portion of the data, on the first pass. The number of recipients which can receive the data from the source can be greatly increased by using a "negative acknowledgement collection" scheme whereby "replication points" (preferably routers) collect individual negative acknowledgements and forward them as a unit to the next level. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Lors de la transmission d'un message (LU) émis par la station mobile (MS), un signal de reconnaissance de cellule (p.ex. CI2) qui permet d'identifier la cellule dans laquelle se situe la station mobile (MS), est également envoyé au réseau terrestre mobile public et est enregistré dans une base de données des abonnés (NVLR) du réseau terrestre mobile public. Le signal de reconnaissance de cellule (p.ex. CI2) mémorisé permet d'appeler la station mobile (MS) par un message de recherche de personne envoyé à la ou aux dernières cellules utilisées (p.ex. CI2) et éventuellement aussi aux cellules radio voisines. Cela permet de réduire la charge de signalisation lors de l'envoi du message de recherche de personne (radiomessagerie efficace) dans la zone de localisation où se trouvent des cellules radio. Il est possible de dériver des informations de localisation au niveau des cellules radio, ce qui consiste en la reconnaissance de la cellule afin d'identifier la dernière cellule radio utilisée par la station mobile, sans charge de signalisation supplémentaire.

Abstract: Methods and devices for generation of phase conjugate light and wavelength conversion, and systems each having the device. In a basic structure of the present invention, a signal light beam is first separated into first and second polarization components by a polarization beam splitter. The first and second polarization components are next converted into first and second phase conjugate light beams by a single DFB (distributed feed-back) laser diode or two DFB laser diodes. In the case that a single DFB laser diode is used, the first and second phase conjugate light beams are combined by the above-mentioned polarization beam splitter. In the case that two DFB laser diodes are used, the first and second phase conjugate light beams are combined by an another polarization beam splitter. Through the structure, it can be possible to provide a phase conjugate light generator having no polarization dependence of conversion efficiency.

Abstract: An introducer system for a lead, catheter, probe or the like, employing a dilator 42 and introducer sheath 40 assembly for dilating a body vessel in preparation for introducing the lead, etc., through the lumen 58 of the introducer sheath that is easily advanced into the body vessel while minimizing injury to the vessel wall. The elongated tubular dilator 42 is formed with a tapered distal end portion extending proximally of a reduced diameter distal tip end to a relatively uniform major diameter. The introducer sheath major lumen diameter is dimensioned to fit snugly over the major diameter and to have a reduced distal end opening diameter from the major lumen diameter. An annular recess 70 is formed in the dilator adjacent to the distal end portion for receiving the reduced distal end opening diameter, such that when so assembled, a smooth transition of the dilator and sheath outer surfaces are presented proximal to the tapered distal end portion. The introducer sheath wall thickness may also be tapered in a distal introducer sheath portion. The annular recess and/or the sheath distal end opening are shaped to provide a cam surface to allow retraction of the distal end portion of the dilator past the reduced diameter sheath distal end opening. The sheath preferably is constructed to readily tear in a longitudinal direction and thus permits the system to be removed from the venous system without having to withdraw the sheath over an end of the lead, etc.
