Abstract: A radio communication system comprises a communication channel between a transmitter ( 108 ) having a plurality of antennas ( 110 ) and a receiver ( 114 ) having at least one antenna ( 110 ). In such a system the communication channel comprises a plurality of paths ( 112 ) having a range of characteristics. Data for transmission is generated by one or more applications ( 102 ) and has one or more categories assigned to it, for example by the addition of tags by a tagging block ( 204 ) indicating its importance or other requirements. Depending on the assigned categories and the characteristics of the paths ( 112 ), the data is mapped to one or more of the transmitter's antennas ( 110 ) to select a suitable transmission path ( 112 ).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for balancing the amount of two liquids and a disposable based thereon for balanced conveyance of a filtrate and a substituent for a medical treatment device, consisting of two volumetric conveying units (roller pumps), which are alternately crossflown by the media to be balanced in a time symmetrical manner by means of appropriate control elements. The cyclic time symmetry makes it possible to totally eliminate all flow differences in both conduits in the sum. Both conveyed amounts are equal. In order to supress systematic errors, the pressure in the inlets and outlets of the volumetric conveying units is kept constant. A special switching regime Umschaltregime (mirror method) makes it possible to also eliminate time parameter changes in pump output as a balance error.

Abstract: Mosaic-shaped block noise occurs when a compressed video signal is reproduced. This block noise is removed, but removing block noise from every block using a deblocking filter imposes a significant load on the deblocking filter. This load is therefore reduced by determining whether coding distortion removal (deblocking) is necessary, and applying a deblocking filter only when needed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for automatically packaging fish at high speeds into horizontally oriented cans. Speeds of approximately 600 cans per minute may be obtained with the preferred configuration of the present invention, wherein two incoming streams of fish are split into eight lanes, to achieve canning speeds of approximately twice the speed of prior art machines. Each incoming stream of fish is split into four separate processing streams or channels, primarily to reduce the operational speeds of the equipment components. Each incoming stream of fish is split by a first dividing knife into two forming chambers carried by an intermittently moving turning wheel. The fish is split again by knives located at second and third work stations of the rotating turning wheel. Four fish cakes are formed simultaneously at the second and third work stations and simultaneously discharged downwardly into horizontally oriented cans. The preferred configuration uses two symmetrical banks of equipment sharing a common drive so that two incoming streams of fish are split into eight lanes and eight fish cakes are formed and discharged into cans simultaneously.

Abstract: A system for reinforced concrete construction, which relates the bar mat (3) with the molding panels (4,5) so as to obtain a rigid assembly capable of resisting the pressure of the placed concrete. The system integrates concrete's reinforcement and formwork, thereby making a rigid reinforcement web permitting direct attachment of the molding panels (4,5) on it, holding them from the inside and avoiding the heavy external structure commonly used to stiffen the forms. This rigid assembly may be obtained by welded joints in the reinforcement web, and, or, using specially designed bar support devices such as tie and spacer units (14), intended to set in place both reinforcement and sheathing. Thus, the embodiment of the proposed system requires a method of assembly, which considers a combination of standard and invented elements. The latter are reinforcement welded mats (3) and joists, and elements as ties, spacers (14), washer plates (6) and sleeves for interlocking the bar mat and the molding panels together. The embodiment considers as well the use of standard elements, such as deformed reinforcement steel bars, and plywood or similar molding sheathing. The proposed system is intended for the construction of walls, columns, beams, slabs or any building member in cast-in-place reinforced concrete. <IMAGE>
