Abstract: A bit rate control mechanism for a digital image or video compression system estimates a complexity parameter for a current picture, or block of samples, of a video signal as a function of parameters for a prior picture of the video signal, which parameters include a bit rate. From the complexity parameter a quality factor for the current picture is determined and applied to a quantizer to compress the current picture. A complexity pre-processor may also be used to detect scene changes in the video signal prior to estimating the complexity parameter. If there is a scene change detected, then the rate control mechanism is reset prior to estimating the complexity parameter for the first picture in the new scene.

Abstract: The operational phase detector is for an engine having pairs of cylinders, the mixture in each pair of cylinders being ignited by means of sparking plugs (B1,B4) connected to the respective ends of the centre-tapped secondary winding (1) of an ignition coil (2). The primary winding (3) is connected to a power supply controlled by an engine operation calculator incorporating e.g. a bipolar transistor (4). The alternately positive and negative voltage (Vpm) at the centre tap is applied to a signal detector and shaper comprising a current-limiting resistor (5) and a Zener diode (6). The voltage (Vz) across the Zener represents a pulse for each spark generated in the cylinder concerned.

Abstract: A compression device for exerting pressure on an arm, shoulder, and/or trunk of a patient in need thereof (for example, a patient with hyperalgia or recovering from surgery in which the lymphatic system is affected), including an arm compression hose, a shoulder part for exerting pressure on the shoulder and trunk area, and a band-shaped fastening means for positioning the shoulder part and exerting pressure on the shoulder part. The arm compression hose exerts a pressure that decreases from a maximum pressure at the wrist or hand to a minimum pressure near the shoulder end of the arm, where the minimum pressure is approximately 70% of the maximum pressure. One or more lining pockets can be constructed on the inner lining of the compression device, where each lining pocket can hold one or more compression pads to increase tissue pressure in one or more body areas in need thereof. The compression pads each can have a shape that approximately conforms to the shape of the body part to which it is applied. The shoulder part can also have a shape that approximately conforms to the contour of the shoulder/trunk area to which it is applied. In addition, compression pants can be prepared with lining pockets for receiving compression pads. In one embodiment, compression pants include one or more donut-shaped pads or equivalents thereof that are placed in one or more lining pockets, each of which surrounds one or more osteoma openings.

Abstract: The method involves measuring the time between first and second tariff pulses when a first selection is made during telephone number entry. The time is automatically stored in the terminal with the day, time, area code or access number to a special service. If a second number is selected from a number with previously stored data the connection is broken shortly before the second tariff pulse, if the caller has no credits. The time between the first and second tariff pulses is monitored for all calls to telephone numbers with previously stored data and the stored data are overwritten if there is a change with respect to the stored data. For a telephone number for which no preselection number, area code or access number is stored, the first numeral of the telephone number is stored in addition to the other data in the memory.

Abstract: A collapsible plastics rule comprises jointed individual bars (1) made from two or more plastics components (A, B) of different hardness and/or elasticity. The softer and/or more elastic material (A) partially or completely surrounds the harder and/or less elastic material (b) which also forms raised areas extending up towards the broad surface of the rule. Also claimed is the production of the rule, in which the softer material component (A) is injected between the projections on the inner walls of opposing faces. A moveable slide between the tool projections is moved away leaving a hollow cavity into which the harder material (B) is injected. The tool halves are immediately separated to retract the projections and further pressure is applied to the harder material (B) to force the latter either completely or partially into the spaces (2) vacated by the projections.

Abstract: A parameter correlating with SOx storage capacity of catalyst (9) is determined, using sensors of the engine management unit (3). Should this undershoot a given value, de-sulfatization is initiated, by changeover from lean to rich burn. Controlled secondary air is introduced ahead of the  lambda  sensor (8), just after the engine. The exhaust : secondary air ratio is monitored by the sensor; and controlled (3) to a given value. A temperature sensor (10) is used to infer SOx storage catalyst temperature controlled to a given value. When the parameter reaches a satisfactory level, lean burn is resumed. An Independent claim is included for the corresponding equipment and instrumentation. Preferred Features: During desulfatization, exhaust air ratio is controlled by the secondary air addition and/or by combustion stoichiometry. A bypass (13) around the NOx storage catalyst (11) is activated during desulfatization only. Suitable branching, and remotely operated valves or dampers are provided. A similar procedure is used to regenerate the NOx storage catalyst, once the SOx catalyst has been restored. For desulfatization,  lambda  = 0.75 - 0.99. The temperature in the SOx storage catalyst exceeds 550 degrees C during this process. A remotely controlled engine choke effects lean to rich burn changeover. The control aims at constant engine torque or constant power.

Abstract: The electronic lock (3) has an associated electronic key (2), especially an ignition key, which is inserted into a holder (11) and at least one switch element actuated by movement of the key. The lock is released to trigger a connected operating unit (13), e.g. an engine controller or immobilizer, after a coded operating signal is exchanged between the key and lock and positively evaluated. The lock is first set into a ready state for actuating the operating unit. When the operation of the unit finishes the lock is switched to a sleep state with limited functionality and reduced power consumption. The switching element produces a wake-up signal on being activated by the key, which returns the lock to the ready state.
