Abstract: La présente invention concerne un traitement dépendant du type de trame (FTD) dans lequel le type de traitement (dont le changement d'échelle) varie en fonction des types (I, B, ou P) des images ou des trames à traiter. Le traitement FTD repose sur le principe que les erreurs présentes dans des images B ne se propagent pas à d'autres images du fait que des images B décodées ne servent pas d'ancrage pour d'autres types d'images. En d'autres termes, comme des images I ou P ne dépendent pas d'images B, toute erreur présente dans une image B ne se transmet pas à d'autres images. Ainsi, avec la présente invention, on dispose de davantage de mémoire et de puissance de traitement pour des images déterminantes pour la qualité vidéo globale.

Filed: 2001-01-17
Abstract: The process enables highly effective N-halogenation of a compound having one or more halogenatable amido or imido functional groups in the molecule. The process involves, for example, concurrently feeding into a reactor (i) water, inorganic base, and the compound to be N-halogenated, e.g., a hydantoin, and a feed of (ii) a brominating agent and/or a chlorinating agent. The proportions of these feeds are such that the pH is kept within the range of ca. 5.5-8.5 (preferably 6.5-8.5, and most preferably 6.8-7.2) and one or more of the amido or imido nitrogen atoms is substituted by a bromine or chlorine atom. A feature of the process is that it can be conducted at elevated temperatures as high as about 90° C. without appreciable thermal decomposition of reactants or product. The resultant product continuously precipitates in high yield and purity. Moreover, products can be produced that are very pale yellow to almost pure white in appearance. Further, the process has been found capable of producing 1,3-dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin with far larger particle sizes than previously produced on a commercial basis.

Abstract: A method and system for controlling a plurality of sub-pipes in a computer network is disclosed. The computer network includes at least one switch. The plurality of sub-pipes utilizes the switch for transmitting traffic through the network. The method and system include allowing a minimum flow to be set for each of the plurality of sub-pipes and determining whether congestion exists for the pipe. The method and system also include controlling a flow in a sub-pipe of the plurality of sub-pipes only if congestion exists. Once congestion is determined to exist, the time set to control of sub-pipes is set significantly longer than for control over individual decreases or increases of the flows in sub-pipes. The flow is controlled such that the flow for the sub-pipe may be linearly increased if the flow for the sub-pipe of the plurality of sub-pipes is less than the minimum flow. The flow is also controlled such that the flow for the sub-pipe of the plurality of sub-pipes is exponentially decreased if the flow is greater than the minimum flow. In determining whether to increase or decrease the flow in a sub-pipe, a second definition of congestion may be used. Thus the traffic through the switch is stable.

Abstract: A method for collecting and preserving semen of various animals including humans, canines, porcines, bovines, ovines and others involves collecting the semen into a collection vessel where the collection vessel is provided with an extender solution for the semen prior to its collection. Moreover, the extender is preferably maintained at a temperature close to normal body temperature of the species being collected over the time period of its collection. The extender is chosen to buffer the pH of the semen sample and to be isotonic with the semen. The volume of the extender in the collection vessel is preferably chosen such that the semen volume is initially diluted with twice its volume extender solution and some period thereafter the extended semen sample is diluted again at the same ratio. Collection into warmed extender media lessened the cold and pH shock to the spermatozoa, as shown by improved semen parameters. The extender solution is preferably rich in calcium ion. A collection vessel resembling an inverted Y is used for collecting distinct semen samples for comparative study.

Title: Procede et appareil de demodulation de signaux traites en mode diversite de transmission
Inventor: ROWITCH DOUGLAS NEAL
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 2001-06-14
Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à des architectures de démodulation conçues pour traiter un signal reçu dans un système de communication sans fil. Un démodulateur comporte un certain nombre de corrélateurs couplés à un coupleur d'émission. Chaque corrélateur reçoit généralement et effectue le désétalement d'échantillons d'entrée (qui sont générés à partir du signal reçu) avec une séquence de désétalement respective de manière à produire des échantillons désétalés. Chaque corrélateur supprime ensuite la couverture des échantillons désétalés de manière à fournir des 'demi-symboles' découverts puis module ces demi-symboles désétalés avec des estimations pilotes afin de générer des symboles corrélés. La suppression de couverture est effectuée avec un symbole de Walsh ayant une longueur (T) qui est égale à la moitié de la longueur (2T) d'un symbole de Walsh utilisé pour recouvrir les symboles de données dans le signal émis. Le coupleur d'émission combine sélectivement des symboles corrélés à partir des corrélateurs affectés de manière à délivrer des symboles démodulés. Un corrélateur au moins peut être affecté au traitement d'une ou de plusieurs instances de chaque signal émis. Les estimations pilotes utilisées dans chaque corrélateur affecté pour démoduler les demi-symboles découverts sont générés sur la base de l'instance du signal en cours de traitement par ce corrélateur.
