Patent EP-1668913-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LEE BAE-KEUN
IPC: H04N7/12
Filed: 2004-08-14
Abstract: Scalable video coding and decoding methods, a scalable video encoder, and a scalable video decoder. The scalable video coding method includes receiving a GOP, performing temporal filtering and spatial transformation thereon, quantizing and generating a bitstream. The scalable video encoder for performing the scalable video coding method includes a weight determination block which determines a weight for scaling. The scalable video decoding method includes dequantizing the coded image information obtained from a received bitstream, performing descaling, inverse spatial transformation, and inverse temporal filtering on the scaled transform coefficients, thereby recovering video frames. The scalable video decoder for performing the scalable video decoding method includes an inverse weighting block. The standard deviation of Peak Signal to Noise Ratios (PSNRs) of frames included in a group of pictures (GOP) is reduced so that video coding performance can be increased.

Abstract: The thrust-absorbing union (1) is between two adjacently located parts (2,3) in a motor vehicle and comprises paired pins (4,5) fitted in one part (2) projecting from a locating surface and positioned at a selected reciprocal distance (a). Recesses are arranged in a locating surface in the other part located at a corresponding reciprocal distance. The pins are dimensioned, shaped and positioned so that they can fit into each of the recesses. The pins in a base surface have two convexly curved fitting surfacse, which give each pin a selected cross-sectional dimension (d) between the fitting surfaces. In the fitted state of the parts, the fitting surfaces coincide with parts of the recess peripheral surfaces. Between the pin fitting surfaces are parts (15,18) where each pin has a lesser cross-sectional dimension (x) than the cross-sectional dimension between the fitting surfaces.

Abstract: A system for producing energy includes a solvent chamber, a pressure chamber and a semi-permeable barrier separating the solvent chamber from the pressure chamber. The solvent chamber holds a solvent, and the pressure chamber hold a solute solution comprising a solute dissolved in a solvent. The semi-permeable barrier is permeable to solvent molecules and impermeable to solute molecules. Solvent molecules effuse across the semi-permeable barrier into the solute solution of the closed pressure chamber to increase the pressure of the pressure chamber, thereby generating energy in the form of hydrostatic pressure. A conversion device may convert the increased pressure in the pressure chamber to energy. The solute solution may be expelled and recycled after use.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une cellule électrochimique destinée à la détection et la quantification d'analytes dans un échantillon liquide, et notamment dans un échantillon liquide présentant un petit volume. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, cette cellule électrochimique comprend un ensemble de couches conductrices et de couches isolantes. La cellule électrochimique peut être formée par dépôt de matériaux conducteurs et de matériaux isolants dans des couches alternées sur un substrat isolant. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, la couche la plus éloignée du substrat isolant est une couche isolante, ce qui permet de limiter l'endommagement des couches conductrices pendant une manipulation de la cellule électrochimique. Un passage peut être formé à travers les couches conductrices et les couches isolantes, ce qui permet de mettre à nu les bords des couches, qui forment ensemble la paroi ou les parois du passage. Les bords à nu des couches conductrices forment les électrodes de la cellule électrochimique. Cette cellule électrochimique comprend au moins une électrode de travail et au moins une autre électrode, telle qu'une électrode de référence/contre-électrode à double usage. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, l'ensemble de couches conductrices et de couches isolantes peut être formé sur les deux surfaces principales du substrat isolant. Cet ensemble peut comprendre au moins une électrode de travail et au moins une autre électrode, telle qu'une électrode de référence/contre-électrode à double usage.

Abstract: The present invention provides a construction machine adopting a structure that assures a predetermined sound pressure level along a forward direction relative to the construction machine and allows a warning horn to be miniaturized. Warning horns 12 and 13 are mounted in the vicinity of at least either a left headlamp 9 or a right headlamp 10 provided on the left side and the right side of a vehicle body 3 of the construction machine. The warning horns 12 and 13 are housed inside a bracket 11 used to mount the headlamp 9 or 10. The plurality of warning horns 12 and 13 are disposed on a single side toward the left headlamp 9 or the right headlamp 10. Since a front attachment 7 does not block the sound generated from the warning horns 12 and 13 and thus the warning sound can travel without hindrance along the forward direction, a predetermined sound pressure level is achieved with ease along the forward direction relative to the vehicle body 3.

IPC: H01M8/04

Abstract: A system for performing locally resolved electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in a segmented Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell (PEFC) is disclosed. The impedance measurement is carried out for all segments in parallel. Due to this unique fast parallel approach the measurement period for obtaining a locally resolved impedance spectrum is virtually independent of the number of segments used. 
     The current density distribution and the corresponding locally resolved impedance spectra for a PEFC segmented along a serpentine cathode flow field and operated on pure H 2 /O 2  and H 2 /air are presented and discussed. For low humidity H 2 /O 2  operation the locally resolved impedance spectra clearly show that the performance loss along the channels can be attributed to drying effects. 
     For H 2 /air operation the lower frequency loops of the local impedance spectra increase in size as a function of channel length. The increase becomes more pronounced with decreasing air stoichiometry. This is likely due to cumulative flooding of the GDL and a decreasing molar fraction of oxygen in the cathodic gas stream. 
     The locally resolved impedance spectra show that large differences in local cell impedance can occur, i.e. the impedance spectrum of the entire cell is of limited value in highlighting factors limiting cell performance and can be misleading.

Abstract: An architecture for network layer mobility support, using always on broadband
high speed access and a network-based mobility manager, termed as a
network server or gateway is disclosed. In order to enable mobility of a mobile
node in a communication network, a registration message is received from a
first access point (AP) indicating that the mobile node is present in an area
serviced by said first access point. A network server then determines whether
the mobile node is present within the mobile node's home access point, and
routes at least one packet to the mobile node via a first pre-provisioned virtual
private network (VPN) tunnel to the first access point if it is determined that the
mobile node is present within the first access point, or routes at least one
packet to the mobile node via a second pre-provisioned virtual private network
(VPN) tunnel to the home access point if it is determined that the mobile node is
present within the home access point. This obviates the need of MIP for IP
mobility.

Abstract: A filter to clean the air entering an alternator (10) in a vehicle used in a dirty environment such as a crop harvesting machine includes a mesh filter (22) which is coupled to an air intake (18) of the alternator. The filter is constructed of a mesh material which is flexible and includes relatively small apertures.
