Abstract: A high performance, low complexity, concatenated code is disclosed. The concatenated code uses a multidimensional trellis coded modulation as the inner code and a low redundancy Reed-Solomon code as the outer code. The concatenated code, in addition to being highly bandwidth efficient, is effective in handling both Gaussian and impulse noise. The concatenated code has the further advantage of using a small constellation for a given bandwidth efficiency.

Abstract: A television presentation and editing system uses closed captioning text to locate items of interest. A closed captioning decoder (103) extracts a closed captioning digital text stream from a television signal. A viewer specifies one or more keywords to be used as search parameters. A digital processor (104) executing a control program scans the closed captioning digital text stream for words or phrases matching the search parameters. The corresponding segment of the television broadcast may then be displayed, edited or saved. In one mode of operation, the television presentation system may be used to scan one or more television channels unattended, and save items which may be of interest to the viewer. In another mode of operation, the system may be used to assist editing previously stored video by quickly locating segments of interest.

Abstract: A distribution type detector comprises scintillation fibers (102a,102b) identical in length to each other, an optical delay fiber (103) having a refractive index substantially identical to those of cores and claddings of the scintillation fibers, photosensitive elements (104a,104b), preamplifiers (105a,105b) constant fraction discriminators (106a,106b), a time-to-pulse height converter (107), an analog-to-digital converter (108), and a multichannel pulse-height analyzer (109). A position where a radiation (101) falls on its corresponding scintillation fiber, is detected based on a difference between time intervals necessary for propagation of optical pulses produced in the corresponding scintillation fiber by the radiation. Thus, even if the length of each scintillation fiber is increased, position resolution can be kept high and a measuring circuit system can be simplified.

Abstract: The generator has at least one rotor electrode (A) or a rotor electrode system and at least two stator electrodes (B,C) or stator electrode systems. The capacitances between the rotor electrode and stator electrodes or between the rotor electrode system and stator electrode systems varies cyclically between null and maximum depending on rotor angle. The rotor electrode or system is connected to the rotor axle and hence to equipment common earth via a capacitor (C4) rotating with it. The stator electrodes or systems are connected to common earth via capacitors (C3,C5). Energy is extracted at the stator capacitors or electrodes only for defined rotor angular positions at which the rotor electrode's or system's electrostatic energy level is a minimum. The capacitance between the relevant stator electrode or system and the rotor electrode or system can also be minimal. The stator capacitors are alternately bridged for the influenced charges during defined rotor position regions by suitable switching elements.

Abstract: A web slitting machine (10) for cutting a web or roll of material includes an upper carriage assembly (16) joined to a lower blade holder assembly (18) by a selectively removable guide key (38) which is milled to provide a predetermined cant angle for the blade (20). The blade (20) is lowered into position by a piston (54, 58) which is rectangular and includes a torsion-resisting sleeve (60a, 60b) to prevent rotation of the piston about its vertical axis. A pneumatic control provides a plurality of control modes whereby the blade (20) may be raised and lowered with or without locking the upper carriage assembly (16) to its transverse bar (14) and vice-versa. A unique side shift adjustment is provided whereby the blade (20) may be shifted to a half-stroke position and the upper carriage (16) locked when the blade is positioned against a lower knife (22). This ensures that the pressure of the blade (20) against the knife (22) is the pressure exerted at the mid point of the stroke. A parallelogram linkage (210, 212) biased by a spring (224) can provide a shock absorber for maintaining blade/knife contact in the presence of webs moving at high speed.

When a signal ODDENB attains a high level, segments 1, 17, ... 113 are driven and dots are formed at recording column positions by each segment. By subsequently sending a signal EVENENB to the high level, segments 2, 18, ..., 114 are driven. Here the interval between the signals ODDENB and EVENENB is changed in conformity with the scanning speed of the recording head.

Abstract: An ink-jet printing apparatus capable to obtain good image quality and improve reliability with avoiding possibility of failure of the head (105). A target temperature, at which ejection of ink through an ink-jet printing head (105) becomes the most stable. Also, a difference between the target temperature and an actual temperature of the ink-jet printing head (105) is derived. When the difference is positive, the drive signal includes a pre-heating pulse (P1) and a main heating pulse (P3) having an interval (P2) therebetween. The pulse width or the interval is properly set. When the drive signal is negative, only main heating pulse (P3) is included. When the absolute value of the difference is large, the pulse width is set smaller. At this time, a drive frequency is lowered or a resting period at opposite end positions in the scanning directions is prolonged.

Abstract: Capacitors (C1) and (C2) as insulation layer separated elements forming element pair of a differential circuit has a common independent N well (12) formed independently of N well (1) connected to a power source VDD. Since the independent N well is in floating condition, even when high level spike noise to be generated upon switching of CMOS or so forth, is superimposed on the power source VDD, the high level spike noise is not directly transmitted to the independent N well to make fluctuation of bias potential of the independent N well small and moderate. Therefore, a potential difference in the independent N well due to impedance resistance in the independent N well becomes significantly small.

Abstract: An interface circuit is provided for implementing zero-byte substitution (ZBS) in a channel unit or line card which couples a digital subscriber line, such as a basic or primary rate Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) line, to a T1 network or other digital transmission facility. On the transmit side, the occurrence of an all-zero data byte in a B channel of the ISDN interface causes a corresponding zero byte indicator (ZBI) flag to be produced in the D+ channel, and also causes the all-zero byte to be replaced by the preceding non-zero data byte rather than by a prescribed or predetermined data byte. On the receive side, the occurrence of a repeated data byte in a B channel is detected and causes the current data byte to be replaced by an all-zero byte to restore the original data. The ZBI flag is then used as an error check bit to verify that the reinsertion of the all-zero byte was correct.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing a specified test on a
semiconductor memory device having a clock generating circuit (13) and a
control circuit (15) in which the clock generating circuit generates a clock
signal (CK) in response to an operation request signal (Sx) and the control
circuit generates a reset signal (S4) for stopping generation of the clock
signal after a predetermined period of time. The control circuit also
generates at least one operation control signal (S2, S3) for performing a
fundamental operation of the memory device in response to the clock
signal. The test is performed by inputting a test mode signal (St) to the
semiconductor memory device to initiate the specified test, delaying
generation of the reset signal for a period of time exceeding the
predetermined period of time, carrying out the specified test while the test
mode signal is being input, and terminating the specified test by stopping
input of the test mode signal. A fundamental operation is performed over a
relatively long period of time (a long cycle) in a semiconductor memory
device of the type which generates an internal clock signal. Since a failure
which appears only in a long cycle operation can be detected, a test for a
short circuit between a bit line (B) and a cell plate (C) can be performed.
