Abstract: Interpolation processing is applied to the output of a look-up table in which a correlation between color-separation signals and density signals ideal for these color-separation signals are stored, with a quantization error produced when quantizing the color-separation signals being adopted as an interpolation coefficient. The quantization and the interpolation processing are executed in a uniform coordinate space.

Abstract: System for distributing video programs includes a transmission system (13) having a plurality of channels, includes a stored database (20) representing a predetermined schedule including timing instructions. Video server (11) containing a computer is programmed to provide real time outputs in response to the database time instructions. A bus has an input coupled to the computer and provides control signals in response to the real time outputs. A recorded medium contains a program in television format. A plurality of video players are used for playing the recorded media, each video player having a control port coupled to the bus and responsive to the control signals. Each video player has an output providing television signals for coupling to a separate corresponding channel, and at least two of the video players loaded with duplicate recorded media and controlled to play at staggered overlapping time intervals. A character generator is coupled to the computer for providing to a channel a menu in television format representing a programming schedule.

Abstract: In a new television signal decoder architecture, a mixer (30) switches between two inputs, A and B, using an envelope function C, according to the relationship: Output = A*C + B(1-C), where A is either the composite television signal input in normal operation or a first test signal memory in test signal generation operation, and B is either a fixed blanking level in normal operation or a second test signal memory in test signal generation operation. A test signal generator and blanking sequence: (18) provides the test signals to the two test signal memories (20, 22) and an envelope control signal to the envelope generator (32) telling it when and in which direction to supply the transition envelope to the mixer (30). A variable electrical length front end is created by a microprocessor (56) that recalls from its memory (58) the timing associated with a particular composite video source and directs a timing circuit (54) to wait an appropriate amount of time before releasing a frame of video stored in a FIFO buffer memory (52) to the rest of the decoder. A bus (39) is shared by sync signals and signals from diagnostic points of interest (62, 64, 66) and is alternatively controlled by the sync generation circuitry (38) during normal operation and the microprocessor (56) during diagnostics.

Abstract: The diameter of nozzles ( 42 ,  42 ') in a nozzle plate ( 40 ) used in ink-jet printer pens, or cartridges, ( 14 ) for the black ink is set at a first value, e.g., 45 µm, which is larger than that used for the color inks, e.g., 40 µm. It has been found that merely changing the nozzle diameter is sufficient to change the ink droplet size. By designing the drop mass properly (i.e., lower than normal, with the volume of black ink at, for example 115 pl and the volume of color ink at, for example, 95 pl, as measured at room temperature), optimum print quality and reliability is achieved when the cartridge reaches steady state operating temperature in a printer ( 10 ) provided with a heater ( 30 ) to assist in drying the ink on the print medium ( 12 ). The inventive approach has several advantages over previous designs, including: (1) optimization/testing of the barriers ( 38 ) and resistor ( 44 ) topology is done only once for the cyan, yellow, magenta, and black cartridges; (2) operating energy in the printer is the same for the cyan, yellow, magenta, and black cartridges, thus simplifying the product design; and (3) manufacturing is greatly simplified, since the only part, other than the ink and some packaging, that is different between the black and color cartridges is the top nozzle plate.
