Patent EP-0586851-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BUELTGES HEINZ DR
IPC: G04C10/04
Filed: 1993-07-24
Abstract: The invention relates to a mains-independent electronic clock (timepiece) which has a replaceable energy source, which discharges during operation of the clock, and a device for checking the output voltage of said energy source, as well as a display for the seconds. Checking of the output voltage of the energy source is performed with the aim of checking its state of charge. According to the invention, an electronic circuit - which can also control other functions of the clock - is used, after the energy source is inserted, firstly to increment the seconds display for an interval which can be stipulated, doing so by two seconds every two seconds. Upon expiry of the interval, the seconds display is incremented by one second after the expiry of each second in the case when the output voltage of the energy source is above a threshold value which can be stipulated. Otherwise, the seconds display continues to be incremented in the 2-second cycle. The clock according to the invention has the particular advantage that it can also be used upon insertion of an adequately charged energy source to demonstrate quickly the type of seconds display which occurs permanently after it has been largely discharged.

Abstract: An 3D imaging method registers relatively deformed first and second volumetric images of an object which may be obtained from different imaging modalities, and/or at different times by performing an elastic geometric transformation on one of the volumetric images. The method includes extracting first and second corresponding surfaces from the respective first and second images, which surfaces delineate the same feature, such as a bone/tissue interface. This is done by extracting a stack of contours for each surface. The first surface is iteratively warped toward alignment with the second surface to arrive at a global translation vector and a set of residual surface distortion vectors. Volume distortion vectors, determined by applying a weighting function to the residual surface distortion vectors, are used to indicate the locations in the second volumetric image of voxel centers whose interpolated intensities are to be moved to lattice points. The weighting function includes a constant indicative of elastic stiffness of the second volume. The extraction of the first surface, surface warping, and volume distortion vector determination steps are repeated in successive iterations until a measure of mis-registration between the volumetric images is less than a predetermined value, with the elastic stiffness constant being decreased each time.

Abstract: An induction system and control method for an internal combustion engine that will improve running under low speed, low load conditions by increasing turbulence in the combustion chamber through the use of a control valve (61) positioned in the induction system (38) for the engine. Under high speed, high load conditions, the control valve is held in an open position and thus, the engine is capable of obtaining high output since there is no restriction to the intake air flow. In addition, transient conditions of the engine, such as variations in idle speed, variations in the amount of EGR, changes in speed, such as acceleration or deceleration, starting and warmup, are compensated for by positioning the throttle control valve to obtain optimum performance, and in some instances, the amount of fuel supplied to the engine is also varied so as to improve exhaust emission control and reduce fuel consumption.

Abstract: A rotationally invariant trellis coder is provided for encoding data to be transmitted using a two-dimensional symbol modulation. A precoder, provided at the transmitter, processes data such that a counterpart postcoder at the receiver will provide an output that is invariant to any multiple of a 90° rotation. An encoder encodes the precoded data using a transparent binary convolutional code, which can be a punctured or unpunctured code. The encoded data is mapped to a two-dimensional signal space having a plurality of signal points. The signal points are labeled with unique binary codes in which the two least significant bits, denoted by (I j , Q j ), are permuted and partially complemented to (           Q     ¯             j , I j ) for each 90° phase rotation around the signal space. The remaining most significant bits for each point, if any, are invariant to such rotation. The postcoder provided at the receiver inverts the precoder and is feedback-free, thus limiting error propagation.
