Inventor: SAWADA KOUHEI
IPC: G03G9/097
Filed: 1998-09-09
Abstract: There are disclosed metallic soap fine particles which
have an average particle size of 4 µm or smaller and have
a content of particles having particle sizes of 10 µm or
larger of at most 4% by weight based on the whole metallic
soap fine particles; a process for producing the metallic
soap fine particles, comprising mixing (a) an aqueous
solution containing 0.001 to 20 % by weight of an alkali
metal salt or an ammonium salt of a fatty acid having 4 to
30 carbon atoms with (b) an aqueous solution or dispersion
containing 0.001 to 20 % by weight of an inorganic metal
salt at a specific temperature to form a slurry of the
metallic soap, and drying the resultant slurry at a specific
temperature. The metallic soap, which has remarkably fine
particles and narrow particle size distribution, is well
suited for use e.g. as a toner additive in an electrophotographic
copying machine by virtue of the improvements in
blocking resistance, fluidity and eliminability of the
toner, and also as a cleaning aid in the same owing to the
improvement in cleaning performance for residual toner
without impairing the surface of a picture image support.

Title: Method and apparatus for compression and decompression of data
Inventor: YOSHIDA SHIGERU
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 1991-02-26
Abstract: A coding is carried out by designating the reference number of a partial
sequence having the maximum length coincidence from the coded partial
sequences registered in a dictionary with regard to a received character sequence,
designating a new reference number to a partial sequence which is obtained by
adding one character to a reference number obtained as a code word, and
registering the new reference number designated partial sequence in the
dictionary. A decoding is carried out by searching partial sequences registered in
the dictionary using a code word represented by the reference number of the
partial sequence, restoring the original partial sequence, designating a new
reference number to a partial sequence which is obtained by adding the beginning
character of the currently restored partial sequence to the previously processed
code word, and registering the new reference number designated partial sequence
in the dictionary. According to the invention, the following steps are provided : 
   constituting a reference dictionary by a group of dictionaries comprising :
   a number of dictionaries less than the number of entire kinds of
characters to be processed, and for each dictionary, initially registering character
sequences which occur with higher frequency of occurrence and comprise one
character of the entire kinds of characters per character or a plurality of characters
per character with designations of reference numbers;   coding the received character sequences by designating a specific
dictionary from the group of dictionaries according to search information
representing the dependency relation to coded character sequences; and   if a received character sequence does not exist in the designated
dictionary, registering a character sequence which is obtained by adding a
sequence character to the reference number of a coded character sequence with a
designation of a new reference number.

IPC: H04N5/00

Abstract: Improved synchronization of OFDM signals is
achieved. A controlled oscillator (8) provides clock
pulses to derive complex samples of an input signal which
are applied both to a fast Fourier transform (5) for data
recovery and to a synchronization unit (9). The
synchronization unit generates the complex product XY* of
the input and the delayed input, which is applied to a
high-pass filter (30) to suppress frequencies below the
symbol frequency. The filter output is applied through a
symbol comb filter (40) to an adaptive slicer (50) which
determines the larger magnitude of the real and imaginary
components of the signal. A pulse processor (60)
generates a single pulse at the leading edge of the symbol
pulse which is applied to a symbol counter (70). The
symbol counter includes two count stages arranged to lock
in quickly and yet be variable to accommodate different
guard intervals in the OFDM signal.

IPC: G11B15/54

Abstract: Error components, such as eccentricity implicated in
an encoder itself can be superimposed upon a detected
value from a light receiving element due to assembly
errors of assemblies themselves and in the manufacturing
process. As a result, speed cannot be controlled with
high accuracy and wow and flatter can not be reduced. A
tape speed (TSS) signal detected and corrected from the
tape transport by FG (18) and PG (19) is inputted into a
PLL loop within a data controller (TBC) of a reproducing
system. A reproduced signal is converted by an A/D
converter (41) in response to a reference clock generated
therein and this data is temporarily stored in a first-in-first-out
memory FIFO (44). When this data is reconverted
by a D/A converter (43) into an analog signal, if this
data is sequentially converted at a timing of an absolute
control clock of a quartz oscillator, then it is possible
to eliminate the error component superimposed upon the
head reproduced signal. Thus, it becomes possible to
erase the wow and flatter of the drive mechanism system
from the head reproduced signal.

Abstract: An input signal (SIN) is input to a reset input terminal (R) of a flip-flop
(RSFF1) and, at the same time, input to a gate of a pMOS transistor (MP1)
constituting a transfer control circuit (DCNTL1), a signal Bd obtained by delaying an
inverted output signal B of the flip-flop (RSFF1) at a delay circuit (DLY1) is input to
the data input terminal of the transfer control circuit (DCNTL1), and the output
signal of the transfer control circuit (DCNTL1) is input to a set input terminal (S) of
the flip-flop (RSFF1) via two stages of inverters connected in series. Therefore, a
signal change detection circuit capable of generating a stable pulse according to the
level change of the input signal without depending upon the input clock signal and
capable of generating the pulse at high speed can be realised.
