Title: Procede et systeme permettant d'irriguer, de prelever et d'evacuer des tissus
Inventor: BARZELL WINSTON E
IPC: A61M1/00
Filed: 2004-09-09
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système et un procédé permettant d'irriguer et de collecter un tissu provenant d'une cavité corporelle d'un patient. Ledit système comprend un dispositif d'irrigation et de collecte permettant d'injecter un fluide dans la cavité corporelle.

Abstract: There is provided a vector conversion device for converting a reference vector used for quantization of an input vector so as to improve a signal quality including audio. In this vector conversion device, a vector quantization unit (902) acquires a number corresponding to a decoded LPC parameter of a narrow band from all the code vectors stored in a code book (903). A vector dequantization unit (904) references the number of the code vector obtained by the vector quantization unit (902) and selects a code vector from the code book (905). A conversion unit (906) performs calculation by using a sampling-adjusted decoded LPC parameter obtained from an up-sampling unit (901) and a code vector obtained from the vector dequantization unit (904), thereby obtaining a decoded LPC parameter of a wide band.
