Abstract: A noise suppression process (S_OUT) for a decoded signal comprising a first decoded signal portion (S_CELP) and a second decoded signal portion (S TDAC) has the following steps: determining a first energy envelope generating curve (ENV_CELP) and a second energy envelope generating curve (ENV_TDAC) of the first signal portion (S_CELP) and of the second decoded signal portion (S_TDAC); forming an identification number (R) depending on a comparison of the first and second energy envelope generating curves (ENV_CELP, ENV_TDAC);  deriving an amplification factor (G) which depends on the identification number (R); advantageously multiplying the second decoded signal portion by the amplification factor, which leads to the desired reduction of pre-echo and post-echo interference noises.

Title: Method to produce natural gas liquids (ngl's) at gas pressure reduction stations
Inventor: LOURENCO JOSE
IPC: B01D53/26
Filed: 2007-05-09
Granted: 2011-08-16
Abstract: A method to recover NGL's at gas Pressure Reducing Stations. A first step involve providing at least one heat exchanger having a flow path for passage of high pressure natural gas with a counter current depressurized lean cold gas. A second step involves passing the high pressure natural gas stream in a counter current flow with the lean cold gas and cooling it before de-pressurization. A third step involves the expansion of the high pressure cooled gas in a gas expander. The expansion of the gas generates shaft work which is converted into electrical power by the power generator and the expanded low pressure and cold gas enters a separator where NGL's are recovered. This process results in the recovery NGL's, electricity and the displacement of a slipstream of natural that is presently used to pre- heat gas at Pressure Reduction Stations.

Abstract: Partial pre-encryption with network-based packet sorting. A video-on-demand (VOD) delivery system for delivering encrypted transport streams to incumbent and overlay set-top boxes utilizes a packet picker/duplicator for sorting selected packets from non-selected packets, duplicating the selected packets, and encrypting one of the pair of duplicated selected packets according to an incumbent encryption scheme. A VOD file server stores the transport stream from the packet picker/duplicator. A network sorter sorts the unencrypted selected packet from the non-selected packets and the encrypted selected packet. The network sorter also sorts the encrypted selected packet from the non-selected packets and encrypts the unencrypted selected packets and the non-selected packets according to an overlay encryption scheme and then sends the transport stream to an overlay set-top box. The network sorter is also responsible for combining the non- selected packets and the incumbent encrypted packets and to send the transport stream to an incumbent set-top box.

Abstract: Molten metal is injected uniformly into a mold from a feed chamber in a horizontal or vertical direction at a controlled rate, directly on top of the metal already within the mold. A cooling medium is applied to the bottom surface of the substrate, with the type and flow rate of the cooling medium being varied to produce a controlled cooling rate throughout the casting process.  The rate of introduction of molten metal and the flow rate of the cooling medium are both controlled to produce a relatively uniform solidification rate within the mold, thereby producing a uniform microstructure throughout the casting, and low stresses throughout the casting. A multiple layer ingot product is also provided comprising a base alloy layer and at least a first additional alloy layer, the two layers having different alloy compositions, where the first additional alloy layer is bonded directly to the base alloy layer by applying the first additional alloy in the molten state to the surface of the base alloy while the surface temperature of the base alloy is lower than the liquidus temperature and greater than eutectic temperature of the base alloy - 50 degrees Celsuis.

Abstract: A coupling for connecting a ventilator tube to a tracheotomy tube has a latching mechanism which prevents the coupling from axially displacing a tapered tubular extension of the tracheotomy tube after they have been mated in a pneumatically discrete path. For use with known adult tracheotomy tubes which have inner and outer cannulas, the latching mechanism engages the coupling with the leading end of the outer cannula collar with the inner cannula collar sandwiched therebetween. For use with known one piece children's tracheotomy tubes, the latching mechanism is a clamshell contoured to concentrically grip the tapered tubular extension of the tracheotomy tube.  Interlocking the coupling and the tracheotomy tube prevents them from inadvertently axially displacing from each other. Non-axial force disengages the coupling from the tracheotomy tube so that the coupling can be axially displaced without exertion of excessive axial force on the system and the patient.
