Abstract: Disclosed herein in one embodiment is an adaptive coding threshold algorithm for a
videoconference system which alleviates problems due to the erroneous recoding of
stationary areas of images caused by image noise. The algorithm, which is preferably
implementable on a videoconference encoder, assesses the coding parameters for a current
macroblock and the coding parameters for that same macroblock the last time it was coded.
If for both macroblocks the coding was non-intra, with a [0,0] motion vector, and with a low
quantization parameter, a determination is made that the current macroblock depicts a
stationary image. Accordingly, the algorithm increases the coding threshold (T 1 ) for the
blocks within that macroblock, so that it becomes more difficult for those particular blocks
to be recoded. This renders the block with stationary content less susceptible to erroneous
recoding, while preserving system bandwidth and improving image quality. Additionally,
related noise assessment techniques can be employed at the encoder or decoder without the
adjustment of the coding threshold (T 1 ).

IPC: G04R60/12
Filed: 2004-03-03
Abstract: The invention seeks to provide an electronic timepiece with wireless information
function that is small, has good reception performance, and can improve the freedom of
design. Antennae 5A and 5B are disposed inside a short tubularly-shaped metal case 1 of
which both ends along its cylindrical axis L 1  are open with the axes L 5A  and L 5B  of the
antennae 5A and 5B substantially parallel to the cylindrical axis L1 of the case 1. A magnetic-field-passing
part capable of passing the magnetic field of radio waves is disposed in an open
side of the case 1 along at least an extension of the antenna axis. Radio waves entering from
the open side of the case 1 can therefore be received by the antenna, and the material of the
case 1 does not affect the reception performance of the antennae 5A and 5B. The case 1 can
therefore be made from metal, increasing the freedom of design and making it possible to
improve the appearance.

IPC: H04W28/04
Filed: 2004-09-23
Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for reducing a transmission rate for retransmission of a current frame in a wireless communication system. The reduced transmission rate increases the probability that the current frame is correctly transmitted and acknowledged. The transmission rate is progressively reduced for the current frame to avoid the expiration of the frame's retry count, while not affecting the transmission rate of subsequent frames. The next frame should be transmitted at the highest rate permitted by the signal quality. A disclosed retry count expiry avoidance algorithm increases the reliability of a retransmission by lowering the transmission rate for the current frame when an acknowledgement is not received. When an acknowledgement is not received, the transmitting station proceeds to a retransmitting state where the transmitting station first attempts to retransmit the frame at the same rate. When the number of "equal rate attempts" is exceeded, the retry count expiry avoidance algorithm enters to a fallback state, where the transmission rate is decreased in a progressive manner.

Abstract: A motor (18), which drives a pair of front rollers (17) of a draft part (16), is controlled such that the rotation speed of the pair of front rollers is decreased from a reference speed (N0) to a decelerated speed (N1) and thereafter increased to the reference speed based on a designed thickness profile (DP) including a slub length (L). The yarn length (La) spun while the rotation speed of the pair of front rollers is increased from the decelerated speed to the reference speed is computed in advance. When the rotation speed of the pair of front rollers is decreased from the reference speed to the.decelerated speed, the motor is controlled such that the rotation speed of the pair of front rollers is increased at a point in time at which the yarn length spun from when the rotation speed of the pair of front rollers is started to be decreased reaches a value obtained by subtracting the yarn length computed in advance from the slub length of the designed thickness profile. Therefore, a special yarn that accurately conforms to the designed thickness profile is manufactured.
