Patent EP-1076421-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SHOJI YOZO
IPC: H04B1/3822
Filed: 2000-08-08
Abstract: In a radio communication apparatus 10 and method, on the transmitting side, an
input signal is modulated in an intermediate frequency band to produce a modulated
intermediate frequency band signal, a local oscillation signal is used to up-convert the
modulated intermediate frequency band signal to a modulated radio frequency band signal,
and the local oscillation signal and the modulated radio frequency band signal are
simultaneously transmitted as a radio signal, and, on the receiving side, the radio signal
from the transmitter 11 is received, the received signal is down-converted by multiplying
the local oscillation signal component and the modulated radio frequency band signal
component contained in the received signal to generate a multiplication component and
thereby produce a modulated intermediate frequency band signal, and the modulated
intermediate frequency band signal is demodulated.

IPC: H01L21/306
Filed: 2000-09-01
Abstract: A method of cleaning a contact area (17) of a
semiconductor or metal region (12) on a substrate of
an electronic device. First, the contact area is
cleaned by exposing the substrate to a plasma that
includes fluorine-containing species (102). Second,
the substrate is exposed to a second atmosphere that
scavenges fluorine (103) preferably formed by a plasma
decomposition of a hydrogen-containing gas. The
second atmosphere removes any fluorine residue
remaining on the contact area and overcomes any need
to include argon sputtering in the cleaning process.
Another aspect of the invention is a method of
depositing a refractory metal over a contact area of a
semiconductor region on a substrate. The contact area
is cleaned according to the two-step process. Then a
refractory metal (52) is deposited over the contact
area. The two-step cleaning process can reduce the
electrical resistance between the refractory metal and
the semiconductor region. Furthermore, if the
substrate is annealed (104) to interdiffuse atoms of
the semiconductor material and the refractory metal,
the two-step cleaning process can reduce the anneal
temperature required to achieve a desired low
electrical resistance.

Abstract: A bus arbitration scheme is implemented in a system where an
arbitrary assembly of nodes on a system bus have been resolved into an
acyclic directed graph. The hierarchical arrangement of nodes has one node
designated a root while all other nodes have established parent/child
relationships with the nodes to which they are linked. Each node may have a
plurality of connected child ports with a predetermined acknowledgement
priority scheme established. Fair bus access arbitration provides for bus
granting in a sequence corresponding to the predetermined port priorities
allowing all nodes a turn on the bus. The root node may always asserts its
priority access status to gain bus access which is useful for accommodating a
root node which requires isochronous data transfer. Alternatively, a token
passing arbitration scheme may be implemented where the token for bus
access is passed around the nodes according to the above-described
predetermined port priority scheme. Preemptive bus initilialization may be
triggered by any node upon detection of a necessitating error or addition or
removal of a connection to an existing node.

Abstract: Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Erzeugen einer Statistik von Phondauern und ein Verfahren zum Ermitteln der Dauer einzelner Phone für die Sprachsynthese. Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Primärstatistik vorgesehen, die beispielsweise auf Primärklustern (z.B. Triphonen) beruht und eine Sekundärstatistik, die auf Sekundärklustern (z.B. Phoneme von ganzen Wörtern) beruht. Beide Statistiken beinhalten mittlere Phondauern und beispielsweise die Standardabweichung der mittleren Phondauern. Bei der Ermittlung der Phondauern wird zunächst versucht, diese anhand der Sekundärstatistik, die sprachspezifischer ist, zu ermitteln. Falls dies nicht der Fall ist, wird auf die Primärstatistik zurückgegriffen, die immer anwendbar ist. Durch dieses zweistufige Verfahren wird eine Phondauer ermittelt, die einer natürlichen Sprache wesentlich besser entspricht, als dies mit dem bekannten einstufigen Verfahren möglich war. <IMAGE>
