Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système d'erreur de paquet logiciel utilisé avec un récepteur (12) de télévision haute définition (TVHD). Un signal d'erreur de paquet de données (17) est transféré depuis un décodeur Reed-Solomon à correction d'erreur sans circuit de retour (44) vers un processeur de transport (60). En réponse à un signal de synchronisation de segment (20), le processeur de transport génère un signal d'erreur (31) qui apparaît sur une broche de sortie programmable (30). Le signal d'erreur de paquet logiciel (31) est synchronisé avec le signal de paquet de données sortant (32) de manière que chaque paquet de données (35) soit limité et encadré par son signal d'erreur de paquet associé (33). La précession du lancement des paquets de données transmis sur le bus (48) par rapport au lancement des paquets de données apparaissant à la sortie (45) du décodeur (44) se produit suite à la génération d'un paquet d'apprentissage tous les 312 paquets de données. La précession est réinitialisée au début de chaque champ et est prévisible au cours de la durée d'un champ avec suffisamment de précision pour rendre le mécanisme d'erreur de paquet logiciel possible.

Abstract: A technique is used for adjusting the valve timing of an internal combustion engine with a cam shaft and a cam lobe displaced at a rotational angle with respect to one another. Under interposition of a cam following element, such as, for example, a bucket tappet, the cam shaft and the cam lobe work together with intake or exhaust valves as well as the camshaft actuator present on the camshaft, through which the position and/or the attitude of rotation of the camshaft to the crankshaft can be changed. To decrease the valve opening time, the camshaft can be adjusted toward hate" during a valve stroke, while the camshaft is adjusted toward "early" during the immediately subsequent base circle phase of the affected camshaft. To increase the valve opening times the camshaft can be adjusted toward "early" during a valve stroke, while the camshaft is adjusted toward "late" during the immediately subsequent base circle phase of the affected camshaft. This technique permits adjustment of the angular attitude of the camshaft as well influence on the valve stroke curve.

Abstract: An introducer system for implantation of pacemaker leads into the venous system of the human heart through the coronary sinus is comprised of a flexible, elongate, outer elongate element having a first shape or bias along a portion. The first shape on the outer element may be prebiased or may be initially straight and subsequently biased once deployed in the body chamber. A flexible, elongate, telescopic inner elongate element has a second shape or bias on its distal portion and has the first shape or bias on a more proximal portion. The inner elongate element is telescopically disposed in the outer sheath. The outer and inner elongate elements are rotatable with respect to each other, such that when the inner elongate element is distally extended from the outer sheath, there exists an angular orientation between the inner and outer sheaths which is congruent, when there is at least partial alignment between the distal portion of the outer elongate element and the more proximal portion of the inner sheath, both having the first shape or bias. This results in the rotation of the distal second shape or curve of the inner elongate element into a predetermined three dimensional location.

Abstract: System and method of estimating radio channel bit error rate (BER) in a digital radio telecommunications system wherein the soft output of the turbo decoder is used as pointer or index to look-up-tables containing the bit-wise BER of a certain bit in the data field of the received frame. A quantizer quantizes the received data frame and the quantized bit operates on a switch which selects the appropriate look-up-table. By means of accumulation and scaling the average BER of a certain amount of bits are calculated. Decoding bit-errors may occur but as they are submitted to posterior probability estimation, systematic errors which normally happen at low SNR are avoided.
