Abstract: Digital signals, such as digitized television signals, are subjected to a source coding step followed by a channel mapping step. The source coding step causes the television signal to be represented by two or more data streams while, in the channel mapping step, the mapping is such that the data elements of the various data streams have differing probabilities of being erroneously detected at the receiver. In preferred embodiments, a first one of the aforementioned data streams carries components of the overall television signal which are regarded as the most important--for example the audio, the framing information, and the vital portions of the video information, such as motion compensation information--and that data stream is mapped such that its data elements have the lowest probability of error. A second one of the data streams carries components of the overall television signal which are regarded as less important than those of the first data stream and that data stream is mapped such that its data elements have a probability of error that is not as low as those of the first data stream. In general, it is possible to represent the overall television signal with any number of data streams, each carrying components of varying importance and each having a respective probability of error. This approach allows a graceful degradation in reception quality at, for example, the television set location because as the bit error rate at the receiver begins to increase with increasing distance from the broadcast transmitter, the bits that represent proportionately less of the video information will be the first to be affected.

Abstract: The system is based on incorporating a start preturbine (80) capable of injecting pressurised air in the inlet manifold (10) of the motor (2). The preturbine (80) is driven by air supplied by a storage reservoir (68) and starts operating after an air starter motor (46) has been actuated. Operation is continued until, as a result of the ignition of the fuel, the engine (2) attains a high speed, after which the starter motor (46) and the preturbine (80) are disengaged, whereby the engine decelerates. When the engine reaches a preset low speed, the preturbine (80) is reengaged and stages of operation of the preturbine (80) coinciding with engine acceleration alternate with inoperative stages coinciding with engine deceleration until an engine speed above the low speed is maintained. A electronic sequencer (90) controls the successive operations.

Abstract: The lock (36) is suitable for use on a door which can be operated from a wheelchair. Such a door possesses a door leaf (1) which is articulated on a lower and an upper arm (3) and which is movable along the paths (A, B) by means of a guide. The lock (36) has a first lock part (36') possessing a pushbutton (37) and a second lock part (36") possessing a pushbutton (37'). Irrespective of the side on which the user, for example the wheelchair driver, is located, he finds the pushbutton (37, 37') in the position suitable for operation. Each pushbutton (37, 37') can be operated in the same direction of rotation in order to open the door. In the opposite direction of rotation, locking is possible by the pushbutton (37), in that the latch bolt (41) is blocked by the bolt arm (93). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A television receiver is controlled as to the degree of vertical zoom via a deflection current ramp that varies in slope and which may be delayed to achieve panning. Due to the increased slope when zoomed, the deflection current and the electron beam complete a trace in less time than the normal vertical interval. The deflection current is maintained at one extreme or the other outside the trace interval, and the beam is blanked. A retrace signal generator (10a, C17, U07) coupled in a feedback (IERROR) loop with the power supply for the deflection circuit determines the midpoint of the blanking period and generates a fast retrace (VRESET) at or near the midpoint. The feedback loop is arranged to minimize the DC average current in the deflection winding by having a current source responsive to the DC average current for charging a timing ramp (C17) that triggers retrace upon reaching a threshold. The slope of the timing ramp varies with DC loading, thus advancing or retarding retrace to center retrace in the blanking interval.

Abstract: In order to transform enciphered instructions stored in an external memory into the original ones while a microcomputer executes the same, the instructions have been enciphered and stored in the memory such as to be logically partitioned into a plurality of groups. The enciphered instructions are read out of the memory for decipherment. A first instruction located at an initial storage address of a group is initially deciphered using a first value. Thereafter, the following instructions in the group are sequentially deciphered using a second value which is determined by transforming an immediately preceding instruction. If the microcomputer executes a branch instruction, the execution control is transferred to a branched address. Subsequently, a first instruction located at the group, which includes the branched address, is deciphered using the first value. 
Thereafter, the instruction(s) following the first instruction are deciphered, using the second value, until deciphering an instruction stored at the branched address.

Abstract: Mass flow or velocity flow of a fluid is measured when passing through a smooth bore pipe (1) by transmitting sound at an angle (α) to the direction of fluid flow through and across the fluid flow as a continuous wave alternately in one direction and in the reverse direction. The phase relationship between transmitted and received sound signals in one of said directions is substantially minimised by adjustment of the transmission frequency and the phase relationship between the transmitted and received sound signals in the other direction is measured. The magnitude of the transmission frequency adjustment is combined algebraically with the measured phase relationship in the other direction to produce a mass flow rate or velocity flow rate value.
