Patent EP-0683204-A3 (EP)
Title: Compositions based on ethylene/chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymers having high thermal stability.
Inventor: CHEN CHII-SHU
IPC: C08K5/34
Filed: 1995-05-12
Abstract: Polymeric compositions are described, which comprise:     (a) an ethylene/chlorotrifluoroethylene (CTFE) copolymer; (b) an ionomer comprising monomeric units containing anionic groups bound to metal ions.   The ionomer exerts on the fluorinated polymer both an action of thermal stabilization, so that during melt processing at high temperatures (higher than 250 DEG C) appearance of undesired discolorations is avoided and evolvement of HCl and HF is considerably reduced, and an action of processing aid, with an effect of surface lubrication during processing steps and thus a reduction of residence times.

Abstract: The trellis demapper, which is capable of demapping 8-PSK and 16,
32, 64, 128 and 256 QAM trellis codes, comprises respective I-channel, Q-channel
and remapper RAMs, an 8-PSK demapper logic means and a MUX
selects. Each of the RAMs includes a lookup table is selectively
programmed for each of the QAM codes. The I-channel RAM (400) and
the Q-channel RAM (402), each of which has a storage capacity of 768
bits, directly forwards their respective outputs through the MUX (408)
selects as the trellis demapper (406) output in response to a QAM trellis
code which is an even power of 2 (i.e., 16, 64 or 256) being selected. In
response to a QAM trellis code which is an odd power of 2 (i.e., 32 or 128)
being selected, the respective outputs of the I-channel RAM and the Q-channel
RAM are applied as inputs to the remapper RAM (404), which
has a storage capacity of 320 bits, and the output of the remapper RAM is
forwarded through the MUX selects as the trellis demapper output. In
response to an 8-PSK trellis code being selected, the output of the 8-PSK
demapper logic means is forwarded through the MUX selects as the trellis
demapper output. This configuration is structurally efficient and requires
minimum storage requirements compared to a trellis code demapper
employing ROM storage for the 16, 32, 64, 128 and 256 QAM and 8-PSK
trellis codes.

IPC: G10L25/93
Filed: 1996-01-12
Abstract: Excitation parameters for a digitized speech
signal are determined by analysing the digitized speech
signal. The digitized speech signal is divided into at
least two frequency bands. A first preliminary excitation
parameter is determined by performing a nonlinear
operation on at least one of the frequency band signals to
produce a modified frequency band signal and determining
the first preliminary excitation parameter using the
modified frequency band signal. A second preliminary
excitation parameter is determined using a method
different from the first method. The first and second
preliminary excitation parameters are used to determine an
excitation parameter for the digitized speech signal. The
method is useful in encoding speech. Speech synthesized
using the parameters estimated based on the invention
generates high quality speech at various bit rates useful
for applications such as satellite voice communication.

Abstract: A timing technique for a Quantization-Level-Sampling (QLS) modem puts timing
information in a downstream pulsed signal transmitted from the public switched
telephone network (PSTN) to the QLS modem. In response to this timing information,
the QLS modem synchronizes to the network sampling clock in the PSTN. In particular,
the pulsed signal includes data-bearing samples, which were provided by a far-end QLS
modem, and at least one non-user-data-bearing (NUDB) sample in which the level of this
NUDB sample periodically alternates. The QLS modem extracts timing information
from this periodic alternating signal level to synchronize the QLS modem to the network
sampling clock.

Abstract: A multilayer reagent test strip measures the concentration of analyte in a
liquid sample that is applied to it. The sample is guided to a number of assay
areas arrayed along the strip, where the analyte can react with a reagent to
cause a color change. Each assay area also includes an inhibitor for the color-change
reaction. The inhibitor concentration increases in successive assay
areas; thus, the number of areas that change color is a measure of the analyte
concentration. The test strip is particularly adapted for measuring glucose in a
whole blood sample. In a preferred embodiment, the sample is guided to the
assay areas along a path formed by crushing selected areas of a membrane, and
the assay areas are uncrushed areas of the membrane.

Abstract: A buffer memory 18 is formed with at least one buffer
area, each for storing one band's worth of print data. The
storage capacity of each buffer area is determined
dependently on both the resolution and the print mode. The
number of the buffer areas formed in the buffer memory is
also determined dependently on both the resolution and the
print mode. When the printer is supplied with successive
bands' worth of print data at 720dpi at a color print mode,
the buffer memory is formed with a single buffer area for
storing one band's worth of print data for four colors. The
buffer area has four storage regions for the four colors.
Each storage region is for storing one band's worth of print
data for a corresponding color. When the printer is
supplied with successive bands' worth of print data at the
same resolution in a monochromatic print mode, the buffer
memory is formed with four buffer areas capable of storing
four bands' worth of print data for a single color. Each
buffer area is for storing one band's worth of print data
for the single color.

Abstract: A keyless control system (10) is disclosed which may be
employed to gain entry to a motor vehicle and start an engine.
When using this system, a user activates a remote control (12) by
selecting a function for the motor vehicle to perform. In
response, a challenge number is exchanged and used in an
encryption algorithm by both the remote control (12) and a control
circuit (14) in the motor vehicle to produce independently of
each other separate algorithm answers. A first verification
indication is produced when the control circuit (14) finds both
answers to be the same. The remote control (12) also sends its
unique remote control identification and a designation of the
selected function to the control circuit (14). If the received
remote control identification matches is on an authorized
remote control list stored in the control circuit, a second
verification indication is produced. When both the first and
second verification indications are produced, the control
circuit issues a signal that causes the motor vehicle to
perform the selected function.

Abstract: An ink containment and dispensing device (10) for an ink-jet
printer is provided with a main reservoir in the form
of a flexible pouch (14), which is typically maintained at
ambient pressure. The main reservoir is coupled to a
variable volume chamber (36) via a one-way valve (42) which allows
the flow of ink from the reservoir to the chamber (36) and
prevents the flow of ink from the chamber (36) to the
reservoir. The chamber (36) is coupled to a fluid outlet (40),
which is normally closed to prevent the flow of outward
ink. However, when the ink supply is installed in a

The pump (18) has a linearly acting pumping member (46) and a
flexible diaphragm (44) that overlies the pumping member (46), the
diaphragm (44) being impervious to the transmission of oxygen
and moisture therethrough to prevent degradation of the
