Title: Performance degradation analyzer and method of the same
Inventor: WATANABE NOBUO
IPC: H01M8/04
Filed: 2006-08-07
Abstract: An AC impedance meter 200 measures an AC impedance of fuel cells 100 against at least a specific frequency. A sensor group 300 detects at least one operating condition of the fuel cells 100. A detection unit 400 compares a degradation reference value corresponding to the detected operating condition with a resistance value led from the measured AC impedance and detects performance degradation in the fuel cells 100 based on a result of the comparison. This arrangement enables easy detection of performance degradation in the fuel cells, irrespective of a variation in operating condition of the fuel cells.

Title: Earth boring bit
Inventor: ENGSTROM ROBERT W
IPC: E21B10/42
Filed: 2007-10-11
Abstract: The earth boring bit 10 is designed to bore an angular non- vertical hole into underlying strata. The bit 10 includes a plurality of steeply inclined cutting faces or edges 22 that define a relatively narrow included angle A  therebetween. The bit's design ensures that the apex of the bit 10 will contact the surface S and/or other hard strata before the radially outwardly disposed gauge portion of the bit 10. This design reduces or obviates drill chattering or "walking" when the bit 10 is used to drill a hole at an angle that is not vertical relative to the surface or strata S. The bit 10 also includes an interchangeable flow control restrictor that optimizes the velocity of fluid pumped through the bit 10 and thus efficiently flushes debris from the hole as the hole is being drilled.

Title: System and method for providing error resilience, random access and rate control in scalable video communications
Inventor: WIEGAND THOMAS
IPC: H04B1/66
Filed: 2007-03-05
Abstract: Systems and methods for error resilient transmission, rate control, and random access in video communication systems that use scalable video coding are provided. Error resilience is obtained by using information from low resolution layers to conceal or compensate loss of high resolution layer information. The same mechanism is used for rate control by selectively eliminating high resolution layer information from transmitted signals, which elimination can be compensated at the receiver using information from low resolution layers. Further, random access or switching between low and high resolutions is also achieved by using information from low resolution layers to compensate for high resolution spatial layer packets that may have not been received prior to the switching time.
