Filed: 1999-04-26
Abstract: Patente de Invenção: <B>''MéTODO E APARELHO PARA A DETERMINAçãO DE QUALIDADE DE SEMENTE POR FLUORESCêNCIA''<D>. A presente invenção refere-se a um método e aparelho para a análise de sementes em pré-germinação, germinadas, em germinação e germinadas e a um aparelho para a classificação de tais sementes e para a determinação do estágio de (pré-)germinação e a qualidade das sementes por meio da medição da quantidade de fluorescência de clorofila. A presente invenção torna possível construir um aparelho classificador, no qual as sementes são selecionados com base na quantidade de clorofila. Uma vez que a intensidade de fluorescência de clorofila está diretamente relacionada à conversão da clorofila em clorofila, torna-se agora possível classificar as sementes quanto ao estágio de germinação e qualidade. é agora possível construir um aparelho de análise, no qual a fluorescência de clorofila é medida de sementes em pré-germinação, pré-germinadas, em germinação e germinadas, e faz-se uma distribuição destes sinais de fluorescência. São descritos testes com sementes de pimenta.

And a ME path deciding circuit (321, 323, 325) provides a zero vector if AV   &   TH1, AV being an activity value of the DB, provides the BL as a first BL if TH1 < AV   &   TH2 and divides the BL into sub BL's (SB's) if AV >TH2 and then provides the SB's as a set of second BL's (SBL's) if TH2 < AV   &   TH3 and the SB's as a set of third BL's (TBL's) if AV > TH3, wherein TH1, TH2 and TH3 are preset thresholds, respectively. A first ME circuit (350) performs a ME on a sample BL obtained by subsampling the first BL within a first predetermined search region (PSR) in a sample reference frame by using a first block matching method (BMM) employing a predetermined full search technique (PFST) to generate a first MV.

Title: Improved optical data compression apparatus
Inventor: MANSBRIDGE JOHN
IPC: H04B10/508
Filed: 2000-04-18
Abstract: Routers for trunk telecommunication systems currently operate at 2.5Gb/s. Next generation routers will be requires to switch 128 input data streams into 128 output data streams, each data stream being at a data rate of 10Gb/s. Current routers employ massively parallel electronic switches to route data at 1.25Gb/s. Such technology is reaching its limit and a new approach to high-speed switching is required. The present invention provides an apparatus and method for enabling such high-speed switching by providing a data compression apparatus which comprises a pulsed chirped laser (226) coupled to a modulator (218, 220), the modulator (218, 220) being coupled to a multiplexer (232) and a compressor (228). A chirped laser pulse having the duration of a data packet is modulated with data received on an input channel and then passed through the multiplexer (232) and the compressor (228) in order to generate a compressed modulated data pulse for high speed switching. Either the propagation time or the propagation speed through the compression medium (28) is linearly dependent upon the frequency of the electromagnetic radiation comprising each pulse. In this way the chirp is converted into compression.
