Patent EP-2439958-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GUO MENG
IPC: H04R3/02
Filed: 2010-10-06
Abstract: The application relates to a method of determining a system parameter, e.g. step size, in an adaptive algorithm, e.g. an adaptive feedback cancellation algorithm and to an audio processing system. An object of the present application is to provide an alternative scheme for feedback estimation in a multi-microphone audio processing system. The problem is solved in that a feedback part of the open loop transfer function (OLTF) of the system is estimated and separated in a transient part and a steady state part, which can be used to control the adaptation rate of the adaptive feedback cancellation algorithm by adjusting the system parameter, e.g. step size parameter, of the algorithm when desired system properties, such as a steady state value or a convergence rate of the feedback part of the OLTF, are given/desired. The method can be used for different adaptation algorithms such as LMS, NLMS, RLS, etc. The invention may e.g. be used in hearing aids, headsets, handsfree telephone systems, teleconferencing systems, public address systems, etc.

IPC: H01J49/04
Filed: 2010-01-13
Abstract: A method and apparatus are described to increase the efficiency with which a sample vapor is ionized prior to being introduced into an analyzer (2). Excellent contact between the vapor and the charging agent is achieved in the ionization chamber (12) by separating it from the analyzer (2) by means of a perforated impaction plate (16). As a result, some desired fraction of the gas going into the analyzer or coming out of the analyzer can be controlled independently from the flow of sample through the ionization chamber. Furthermore, penetration into said ionization chamber of said desired fraction of the gas going into or out of the analyzer is minimized by controlling the dimensions of said perforated impaction plate. Ions formed in the ionization chamber are driven partly by electric fields through said hole (13) in said perforated impaction plate into the inlet (1) to the analyzer. As a result, most of the gas sampled into the analyzer carries ionized vapors, even when the sample flow of vapor is very small, and even when the analyzer uses counterflow gas.
