Title: Integrator
Inventor: BIDENBACH REINER
IPC: G06G7/186
Filed: 1999-07-09
Abstract: Bei einem Integrator, der den analogen Fotostrom einer Fotodiode (PD) integriert, ist das Verstärkungsbandbreiteprodukt wegen der parasitären Parallelkapazität (Cp) der Fotodiode (PD) verhältnismäßig klein. Bei Ausführung mit einer geschalteten Kapazität (C1) muß aber die Bandbreite und gleichzeitig auch die Gleichstromverstärkung groß sein, damit die Integratorfunktion auch bei kleinen Frequenzen gewährleistet ist. Um die beiden sich widersprechenden Forderungen nach großer Bandbreite und hoher Gleichstromverstärkung gleichzeitig zu erfüllen, liegt an einem aus einem Widerstand (R2) und einem hierzu in Reihe geschalteten Schaltungsteil (R1) sowie der Fotodiode (PD) eine Referenzspannung (V1). Der Verbindungspunkt des Spannungsteilers ist mit dem invertierenden Eingang des Transkonduktanzverstärkers (V) verbunden.

Abstract: A high efficiency encoding method for encoding data on the frequency axis as an M-dimensional vector comprising the steps of: dividing (612a) input audio signals into blocks and transforming (612b) the block signals onto the frequency axis to find (612c) data on the frequency axis as an M-dimensional vector; dividing (621), the data of the M-dimensional vector on the frequency axis into plural groups and finding a representative value for each of the groups to lower the M dimension to an S dimension, where S < M; processing the S-dimensional data by first vector quantization; processing output data of the first vector quantization by inverse vector quantization to find a corresponding S-dimensional code vector; expanding the S-dimensional code vector to an original Mdimensional vector; and processing (624), with second vector quantization, data representing relation between the expanded Mdimensional vector and the data on the frequency axis of the original M-dimensional vector. Accordingly, by carrying out the vector quantization having a codebook of hierarchical structure, wherein the M-dimensional vector is dimensionally lowered to the S-dimensional vector for vector quantization, the operation volume of codebook search and the size of the codebook can be reduced significantly, making effective application of a correction code possible.

Abstract: A method for selectively enhancing animal feed by the addition of feed
supplements to raw materials in accordance with a determination of the improvement
in homogeneity of the physiological response of animals fed with the feedstuff. Batches
of raw material for the feedstuff which have a nutritional value below a threshold are
supplemented with a feed supplement, whereas batches already high in nutritional value
are not supplemented. This reduces the variance in nutritional value of the feedstuff, and
improves homogeneity in the physiological response of the animals to the feedstuff. The
nutritional value is measured in terms of the amino acid content, and the feed
supplement is an enzyme which improves the digestibility of the amino acid.
