Abstract: A roll-forming apparatus (10) is disclosed
which forms individual rolls of material from
continuous or interleaved webs. The apparatus includes
a conveyor (16) which directs each web of material to
an associated intermittently indexed turret assembly
(18). The turret assembly includes a plurality of
rotatable spindles (20) thereon for respective
formation of rolls of material from the individual
webs. The apparatus includes various drive
arrangements so that the surface speed of each spindle
is matched to the speed of the apparatus conveyor
during transfer of each web to a respective one of the
spindles. Separate drive systems are preferably
provided for effecting driven rotation of each spindle
during winding of the rolls, and for effecting
intermittent, indexed movement of the turret assembly.
An additional drive mechanism desirably effects reverse
rotation of each spindle to facilitate removal of the
completed roll therefrom.

Abstract: A VCSEL [100] with a near planar top surface on which the top electrode [111] is deposited.
A VCSEL [100] according to the present invention includes a top electrode [111], a top
mirror [115] having a top surface, a light generation region [120], and a bottom mirror [116]
for reflecting light toward the top mirror [115]. At least one of the mirrors includes a plurality
of planar electrically conducting layers having different indices of refraction. In addition, at
least one of the layers includes an oxidizable material. To expose this layer to an oxidizing
agent (thereby converting the material to an electrical insulator), three or more holes [112] are
etched down from the top surface of the VCSEL [100] to the layer [118] containing the
oxidizable material. The oxidizing agent is then introduced into the top of these holes. The
partial oxidation of the layer converts the layer to one having a conducting region [121]
surrounded by an electrically insulating region, the conducting region being positioned under

Abstract: A speech coding method and system is provided which
can code a speech signal at a bit rate of 8 kb/s or less by
a comparatively small amount of calculation to obtain a good
sound quality. The system comprises an adaptive codebook
(450) which makes use of a long-term correlation of the
input speech signal, an excitation codebook (470)
representing an excitation signal of the input speech
signal, and a gain codebook (530) for quantizing a gain of
the adaptive codebook and a gain of the excitation codebook.
The gain codebook is searched for a codevector using a
normalization coefficient which is calculated from an
autocorrelation of a synthesis signal of an adaptive
codevector from the adaptive codebook, a cross-correlation
between a synthesis signal of the adaptive codevector and
the synthesis signal of the excitation codevector, an
autocorrelation of the synthesis signal of the excitation
codevector, and an autocorrelation of the input speech
signal or an estimated value of such autocorrelation of the
input speech signal between a signal obtained by subtraction
of the synthesis signal of the codevector of the adaptive
codebook (120) from the input speech signal and the
synthesis.

Abstract: When a received broadcast signal is received in a digital
broadcast signal receiving apparatus, an entitlement
management message EMM representing broadcast-watching
enabling information is extracted from the received digital
broadcast signal in an EMM extracting unit regardless of any
operation. An extracted digital broadcast signal already
descrambled in a preceding step is recorded in a recording
unit. When a user selects a reproducing operation in a current
step, particular digital broadcast information indicating a
particular television program is extracted from the extracted
digital broadcast signal in a packet extracting unit.
Therefore, the particular television program can be
reproduced. When a user selects a receiving operation in the
current step, pieces of digital broadcast information
indicating television programs are extracted from the received
digital broadcast signal in the packet extracting unit and are
descrambled according to the message EMM, and the pieces of
digital broadcast information are recorded as an extracted
digital broadcast signal of the current step in the recording
unit. Accordingly, because the message EMM is extracted
regardless of any operation, the pieces of digital broadcast
information indicating television programs can be reliably
extracted from the digital broadcast signal in the receiving
operation.
