Abstract: Techniques for encoding audio signals are disclosed wherein a left channel signal masking
threshold and a right channel signal masking threshold may be advantageously adjusted. A given
time block of a stereo audio signal comprises a left channel signal and a right channel signal, each
of which are represented in a frequency domain by a first plurality of frequency partitions and a
second plurality of frequency partitions, respectively. For a frequency partition from the first
plurality of frequency partitions and a corresponding frequency partition from the second plurality
of frequency partitions, a scheme first calculates a set of masking thresholds comprising the left
channel masking threshold and the right channel masking threshold. Next, based upon the set of
masking thresholds, the scheme calculates an adjusted left channel masking threshold and an
adjusted right channel masking threshold. The adjusted thresholds may be advantageously used to
encode the audio signal wherein the effect of noise unmasking is reduced.

Abstract: Concentric aspheric multifocal lens designs are disclosed which use a combination of an aspheric front surface, which results in aberration reduction and contrast vision enhancement, along with a concentric multifocal back surface, to produce a lens design which affords clear vision at a distance and also near without a loss in contrast which is generally typical of prior art simultaneous vision, concentric multifocal lens designs. The aspheric surface improves the modulation transfer function (MTF) of the lens eye combination which improves the focus and contrast of both distance and near images. The design form is valid for contact lenses and intraocular lenses.

Abstract: A pacemaker
system that cuts short a pacemaker-defined refractory
time period whenever capture is not achieved. The
pacemaker generates a cardiac stimulation pulse, and
in response thereto, initiates an evoked response
detection time period and a refractory time period.
If an evoked response occurs during the evoked
response detection time period, capture is presumed.
If an evoked response does not occur during the evoked
response detection time period, then capture is not
achieved and the refractory time period is terminated,
or cut short, thereby lengthening the window during
which natural cardiac activity may be sensed. In the
event natural cardiac activity is not detected
following the termination of the refractory time
period, a backup stimulation pulse may be generated.

Abstract: In a voice coding-and-transmission system using a
differential coding, a degradation of voice quality caused by
a silent period transmission network and an ATM network is
prevented without improving a silent-period elimination
transmission network and existing transmission networks such
as a STM network. In a relay node (104), an encoder (114)
codes a voice signal from a decoder (108) again for a
transient period immediately after a voice is started, and a
transmission node (100) and a reception node (102) are
tandem-connected. The encoder (114) and a decoder (122) at a
reception node (102) are given respectively same reference
values of a differential processing by memories (118, 128)
when the voice is started, thereby preventing an abnormal
sound generation due to a mismatch of inner statuses thereof
when the voice is started. During the transient period, the
internal statuses of an encoder (106) at a reception node
(100) and the decoder (122) are closed each other. After the
transient period is elapsed, switching a switch in a
silent-period eliminator (112) to a digital-one-link, thereby
preventing the degradation of the voice quality caused by
quantization errors.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus in which the influence of the
movement of hands and of the motion of an object to a high
resolution picture image is reduced is provided. Picture
image light from the object passes through an optical
system (33) and light-transmitting domains (L) of a color
filter provided at the light incident side of an imaging
device (34). The light-transmitting domains (PD) transmit
only predetermined chromatic lights of the picture image
light to input to corresponding photo-receiving domains
(PD) of the imaging device (34). The imaging device (34)
is a two-picture element mixed reading type device. In a
high resolution mode, an image forming point of the
picture image light is moved to two places in parallel and
the picture image light is formed at each image forming
point to image the picture image light. Then, the signal
processing circuit (44) combines the two original picture
image signals whose image forming points during the
imaging operation are different to generate a single
output picture image signal. Thereby, an equivalent
imaging time in imaging a single output picture image may
be shortened.

Abstract: The invention concerns a solid phase surface structure and a process for preparing such a
structure. The surface structure comprises functional groups on the surface of a substrate.
The species of a reactant fed in gas or liquid phase is bound at least temporarily to said
groups due to the interaction between said species and said functional group during a
chemical reaction. According to the invention essentially all of the functional groups are
attached to the substrate via a bridging group bound to the surface atoms of the substrate,
the surface binding sites being so far from the surface of the substrate that the surface of the
substrate does not have any significant influence on the interaction between the surface
binding sites and the reactant species. The functionalized surface structures can be provided
by reacting an inorganic oxide support with a compound or formula (I)
 R 1 AX 1   
wherein A is silicon, tin, germanium or carbon, R 1  is a hydrocarbon group and X 1  is a
functional group. The reaction between the support and the compound of formula I is
carried out under surface bond selective conditions and the reaction is continued until essentially
all of the hydroxyl groups of the inorganic surface have reacted under surface bond
selective conditions. By means of the invention functionalized surfaces are provided which
can be used for chromatographic applications and as catalyst supports.
