Abstract: The method and circuit find the reciprocal value of an input vector signal. The level of the input vector signal (X + jY) is first reduced to        (X + jY)/ 2           in an overflow-preventing circuit. A power calculating circuit squares and adds the components of the level-reduced input vector signal, thereby obtaining a power value        (X² + Y²)/2          . An initial value of a tap value (K), which represents the reciprocal value to be found, is multiplied twice by a multiplying circuit, thereby obtaining        K²(X + Y)²/2          . Further, a differential circuit obtains an error signal        (ΔK) = 1/2 - K²(X² + Y²)/2           by subtraction from a reference value. An updating circuit updates the tap value (K) by adding to it the error signal (ΔK). A loop consisting of the multiplication of the tap value, differential operation, and updating of the tap value, is repeated until the error signal (ΔK) is reduced to less than or equal to a predetermined value. The tap value (K) thus obtained is the desired reciprocal value        1/√(X² + Y²)           of the amplitude of the input vector signal. The method and circuit can be used for amplitude normalization in a modem, for example.

Abstract: Known systems based on stereoscopic video coding and video decoding code with inadequate efficiency because the left-hand picture and the right-hand picture are coded and decoded independently of one another by means of the encoders present in the system. As a result of providing one encoder with switching means to which a signal representing the left-hand picture and a signal representing the right-hand picture are fed, said encoder is able to base the prediction either on the left-hand picture or the right-hand picture, and this improves the prediction and, consequently, the efficiency of the coding. As a result of designing the switching means, according to one embodiment, for the adjustment of the ratio of the signal representing the left-hand picture and the signal representing the right-hand picture and for the subsequent addition of the two adjusted signals, a still greater advantage is achieved in the prediction with the correct ratio, and this results in a further improvement in the efficiency of the (total) coding.

Abstract: Nitrogen or air typically containing not more than 0.5 ppm by volume of carbon monoxide is produced by temperature swing adsorption. A nitrogen stream or air stream containing up to about 100 ppm by volume of carbon monoxide is subjected to adsorption at a temperature below 150K in an adsorption bed containing calcium-exchanged type X zeolite, type 5A zeolite or 13X zeolite, which removes substantially all of the carbon monoxide from the nitrogen stream or air stream. The adsorbent is regenerated by subjecting it to a temperature in the range of minus 20 to plus 250°C. If the feed is air, a nitrogen product is obtained by fractional distillation of the purified air. If the feed is nitrogen it may be formed by fractional distillation of air.

Abstract: An air discharge nozzle and method for vehicles having a grill (21') which has a high degree of visual opacity to enhance design aesthetics, low impedance to air flow so that the face velocity remains high, and which does not significantly affect directionality of the air as imparted to the air stream by an upstream control mechanism. The grill (21') is comprised of a monolayer of polygonal cells in an array of cells, each cell being bounded by planar walls having a depth "L" interstitial thickness "T" and a diameter or major dimension "D", wherein the interstitial depth L is short enough such that the planar walls do not act as vanes to significantly affect directionality of the air, the interstitial thickness T has a value such that the impedance to air flow is low, and the length to diameter ratio L/D is no greater than about 0.7 and no less than about 0.3, such that the relative visual opacity of the grill when viewed from any angle is high. The open cell area Ao must be at least about 76% of the available (total) area to obtain an acceptable 1800 ft/min face velocity at a blower pressure of 0.24 inches H2O. The upstream directionality control mechanism includes a disc intruder (224). The intruder member has axially projecting control shaft (35') which carries a spherical member (37') frictionally received in a spherical socket (38') such that the control shaft can easily be manually manipulated.
