Abstract: A method for fast training of equalizers in a DMT system begins by
normalizing the incoming receive signal (   y   ) via steps (108-116). By normalizing the
signal, the convergence rate of the training algorithm becomes relatively independent
of channel line length so that long line lengths may converge to optimal equalizer
coefficients in short time periods. The method also iteratively adjusts the filter
coefficients    w    over time by using an adaptive gain vector  µ  that is updated on a
component-by-component basis on each iteration via steps (114-146). By allowing
each component of the vector  µ  to iteratively adapt independent of all other
components in the vector  µ  based upon the binary sign bit of both real and imaginary
components of frequency domain gradient vectors    G   , a convergence to optimal
equalizer filter coefficients will occur in a short period of time.

Abstract: A polyurethane resin having a total
concentration of the urethane group and the urea group
of not less than 15% by weight is prepared by reacting
a diisocyanate component (e.g., an aromatic
diisocyanate) with a diol component (e.g., a C2-8alkylene
glycol). The repeating unit of the
polyurethane resin may contain a constitutive unit of
an aromatic or alicyclic compound. The polyurethane
resin may be shaped into a film for use as a gas barrier
film. The film may be a gas barrier composite film
composed of a base film layer and a resin layer at least
comprising the polyurethane resin. The present
invention provides a polyurethane resin excellent in
gas barrier properties against water vapor, oxygen,
aromatics, and others, and a film containing the same.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schaltungsanordnung mit zwei oder mehreren über eine Datenübertragungsvorrichtung kooperierenden Schaltungsteilen. Die Erfindung löst das Problem des doppelten Flächenaufwandes für je zwei Speichereinrichtungen für jeweils einen Empfänger dadurch, daß der Datenbus selbst die Rolle einer dieser Speichereinrichtungen, nämlich der als Master fungierenden Speichereinrichtung, übernimmt. Hierzu ist lediglich eine leichte Änderung der Ablaufsteuerung erforderlich sowie eine einzige Speichereinrichtung auf dem Datenbus zu integrieren, die die Rolle der nicht mehr benötigten Speichereinrichtung für jeden Datenempfänger übernimmt. Durch die Einsparung einer jedem Empfänger zugeordneten Speichereinrichtung kann der für die Kommunikationsbusse vorgesehene Bereich auf dem Halbleiterchip in der Fläche optimiert werden. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention comprises a whole body RF coil system for use with an open
magnetic resonance (MR) imaging system. The RF coil system comprises first and
second quadrature RF coil sets (38) positioned on opposing sides of an imaging
volume. Each RF coil set comprises similarly-structured, multiple RF coils. Each
quadrature RF coil comprises a first and second plurality of primary path conductor
segments (82,94), and first and second return path conductors (104,106),
symmetrically disposed about a centerline at specified distances. The first and second
plurality of primary path conductor segments are positioned in a first plane (84) that is
substantially spaced apart (Z 2 ) from a second plane (114), farther from the imaging
volume, containing the first and second return path conductors. The conductors
within each of the first and second set of primary path conductor segments are adapted
to have a predetermined current amplitude ratio. Upon energization of the first and
second RF coil sets in quadrature to generate a circular, polarized B 1  field, the
positioning of the conductors and the predetermined current amplitude ratio provide a
desired homogeneity within the imaging volume and a desired sensitivity drop-off
outside of the imaging volume.

Abstract: In a monitor camera system comprising a monitor camera making 360-degree
panning rotation and more-than 90-degree tilting rotation and a control unit for
controlling the monitor camera, for masking a privacy zone in a picture taken by the
monitor camera, the control unit sets mask data through the use of a contour
parameter of a configuration of a mask zone for covering the privacy zone, while the
monitor camera side holds the mask data to mask a portion of the picture with the
mask zone defined on the basis of the mask data. According to this monitor camera
system, since only a portion of the picture is masked with the mask zone, it is
possible to protect the privacy from the picture taken by the monitor camera without
impairing the monitoring function. In addition, since the monitor camera holds the
mask data, quick processing becomes feasible.

Abstract: Selon cette invention, un cytomètre en flux à ouverture numérique comprend une cuve à circulation et une entrée laser. L'entrée laser émet un faisceau de lumière orienté de façon sensiblement orthogonale par rapport au flux de globules traversant la cuve à circulation, de manière à ce que la lumière laser tombe sur les globules pendant qu'elles traversent la cuve à circulation. Une partie du faisceau provenant de l'entrée laser qui tombe sur les globules dans la cuve à circulation est diffusée sous un angle sensiblement droit par rapport à l'entrée laser ('diffusion à angle droit'). Une deuxième partie du faisceau provenant de l'entrée laser qui tombe sur les cellules dans la cuve à circulation est diffusée sous un angle sensiblement inférieur à 90°. Cette diffusion est appelée 'lumière de diffusion vers l'avant à faible angle d'ouverture', l'angle de diffusion étant compris entre 2° et 5° par rapport à l'orientation du faisceau d'origine provenant de l'entrée laser. Un détecteur de diffusion de lumière sous angle droit est orienté de manière à recevoir la lumière diffusée sous angle droit mentionné plus haut. Un détecteur de lumière diffusée à faible angle d'ouverture est orienté pour capter la lumière diffusée sous un angle à faible ouverture mentionné plus haut, diffusé vers l'avant et orienté avec un angle compris entre 2° et 5° par rapport à l'orientation du faisceau d'origine provenant de l'entrée laser.

A module having the earliest maximum beginning time is selected from those modules for which the minimum beginning time is equal or prior to a current time. A portion of the selected module is scheduled. After a portion of a module is scheduled, the information in the module list is updated, the modules in the list are re-prioritized, and another module is selected for scheduling. This is repeated until all of the modules have been scheduled.

Abstract: First and second field type detectors for first and second video
signals have outputs indicating whether the video signals have first
or second field types. The first video signal is synchronized with
the second video signal for a combined display by a synchronous
field memory and an asynchronous multiple line memory. The field
type of the second video signal is changed when necessary to match
the field type of the first video signal to maintain interlace
integrity in the combined display. A field type changing circuit,
which controls the synchronizing, has a first mode of operation
which delays writing a current field of the first field type by one
horizontal line period, a second mode of operation which advances
writing a current field of the second field type by one horizontal
line period and a third mode of operation which maintains a current
field type. A comparison of the field type of the second signal to the
field type of the first signal results in an output signal indicating
one of a plurality of comparison outcomes, wherein the first and
second video signals have the same field type, wherein the first
video signal has the first field type and the second video signal has
the second field type and wherein the first video signal has the
second field type and the second video signal ha the first field type.
A plurality of selectable interlace correction signals are generated,
each being appropriate for one of the plurality of comparison
outcomes.
