Patent EP-0671029-A1 (EP)
Inventor: TOBEY CHRISTOPHER E
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 1993-11-24
Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé permettant de parcourir un programme d'application sur un ordinateur connecté à un écran d'affichage commandé par ordinateur. L'utilisateur peut commander la position du curseur sur l'écran d'affichage commandé par ordinateur à l'aide de simples commandes. L'invention peut utiliser une unité de commande portative pourvue d'un bouton de commande à quatre directions et d'un bouton de sélection de fonction. L'ordinateur accepte les informations d'entrée de directions et déplace le curseur ou 'marqueur focal' selon l'une des trois fonctions de parcours différentes. Les deux premières fonctions de parcours sont selectionnées par le programme d'application, et peuvent varier d'un parcours à l'autre dans différentes parties du programme ou sous la commande de l'utilisateur. Avec la première fonction de parcours, les boutons de direction de l'unité de commande déplacent 'le marqueur focal' d'un petit groupe d'instructions à un autre petit groupe d'instructions dans la direction sélectionnée à l'aide de critères prédéfinis. Avec la seconde fonction de parcours, le 'marqueur focal' est déplacé d'une position actuelle à une position adjacente dans la direction sélectionnée. Si le bouton de sélection de fonction est enfoncé alors que le 'marqueur focal' se trouve sur un petit groupe d'instructions, la fonction associée à ce petit groupe d'instructions particulier est validée. Une troisième fonction de parcours est validée si le bouton de sélection de fonction et le bouton de sélection de direction sont enfoncés en même temps. Avec la troisième fonction de parcours, le 'marqueur focal' se déplace de sa position actuelle dans n'importe quelle direction sélectionnée par le bouton de sélection de direction. Le déplacement du 'marqueur focal' peut avoir lieu simultanément en deux dimensions à l'aide de n'importe quelle fonction de parcours si l'utilisateur sélectionne des directions en deux dimensions sur le bouton de commande à quatre directions.

Abstract: Dans les systèmes de communication personnels, l'utilisateur d'un combiné sans fil ne connaît généralement pas la qualité de la liaison radiotéléphonique avec la station de base lorsqu'un appel est en cours. L'invention porte sur de nouveaux mécanismes au moyen desquels des informations à jour relatives aux paramètres de liaison radiotéléphonique sont données à l'utilisateur du combiné. Selon l'invention, la station de base analyse continuellement le signal reçu d'un combiné et renvoie à ce dernier un signal indiquant les paramètres de liaison. Dès réception du signal, le combiné informe l'utilisateur au moyen de l'effet local traité ou d'autres indications.

Abstract: An apparatus that automatically adjusts the adaptation block size for a least-mean square (LMS) adaptive filter depending on the input signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is disclosed. The apparatus monitors the instantaneous SNR and continually adjusts the block size to provide high noise immunity, thereby increasing the convergence speed of the filter and decreasing the asymptotic mean-square error. An exemplary embodiment of the present invention is presented in the context of acoustic echo cancellation, though it is noted that the adaptive filter of the present invention is useful in any environment in which the noise characteristics are subject to change.

Abstract: A method of producing seamless cans wherein a blank holder (2) is inserted in a metal cup (5) coated with an organic film (12), a punch (1) is advanced into a cavity (7) in a die (3) while pushing the bottom (5a) of the metal cup onto the flat surface portion (3a) of the die by the blank holder (2), so that the side wall (5b) of the metal cup (5) is brought into intimate contact with the flat surface portion (3a) of the die and with the working corner (3b) having a small radius of curvature, thereby to reduce the thickness of the side wall (5b) by bend-elongation. Moreover, the portion to be subjected to the necking is ironed at an ironing ratio of not smaller than 5% by the punch (1) in cooperation with the front end (3b₁) of the working corner (3b), or by the front end (3b₁) and an ironing portion of a short cylindrical portion in front thereof, or by the punch (1) in cooperation with the ironing portion (3g) of the die (3) by advancing the side wall (5b) slightly toward the inside in the cavity (7), thereby to obtain a seamless can (20) having a reduced thickness in the side wall (5b). This method makes it possible to control the thickness distribution in the side wall and, hence, to produce seamless cans having reduced thickness in the side wall permitting the organic film to be least whitened during the necking working.
