Abstract: The error concealment method improves the signal quality in transmission systems. The method is used for processing speech signals which have been encoded to speech parameters before transmission via a transmission channel. It allows detection at the receiving end of corrupted signal parameters due to adverse channel conditions. The method comprises estimations of the signal quality and a statistic study of the evolution of the signal parameters so as to derive an indication that the parameter is probably corrupted. A first signal quality estimation is performed. It may be e.g. an estimation of the error probability within the most important bits of the frame. A second signal quality estimation is performed. It may be e.g. an estimation of the error probability within all bits of the frame. Depending on the results of the estimations, the statistic study is performed in order to detect which signal parameters are probably corrupted.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for monitoring and influencing an electric motor, in particular, arranged on a displaceable object on a motor vehicle, such as a window or sunroof. The aim of the invention is to resolve the technical problem of reliably recognising the trapping of a foreign body in said window or sunroof, such that the window or sunroof can be stopped in time, or reversed, without time-consuming calculation of energy balances, closing forces etc and/or the observation of the force development during the time window comprising a complete trapping process. Said aim is achieved, whereby the criterium for stopping, or reversing is obtained by comparing the actual measured value for the motor current I(tO), with a reference value Iref, formed from a stored value for motor current I(t-N), taken after a defined amount of motor rotation has occurred, with the introduction of further parameters.
Patent EP-1290400-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MUSKAT ERICH
IPC: F42B5/192
Filed: 2001-05-12
Abstract: According to known techniques for winding an ammunition shell the number of thread layers is often reinforced as compared to the remaining part of the shell wall, especially in those zones of the shell where the load is the highest, thereby, however, inevitably increasing the thickness of the shell wall. If the space for the propelling charge in the wound shell is to be enlarged while the outer geometry of the wound shell remains the same, that is with the same space provided in the weapon for the charge, the wall thickness has to be reduced. In order to provide the shell with the same mechanical stability, despite the reduction in wall thickness, as shells whose wall thickness is not reduced, the wound body of the shell ( 50 ) is produced from chemical fibers ( 53 ), preferably from synthetic and inorganic chemical fibers.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une sécheuse à zones automatique à économie d'énergie commandée par ordinateur destinée à une presse à imprimer, qui a une tête (36) regardant le trajet (P) de cheminement du substrat, ainsi que plusieurs lampes (60) à infrarouge raccordées individuellement ou en groupes de façon à former plusieurs zones de chauffage s'étendant longitudinalement et, chacune, latéralement côte-à-côte à travers ledit trajet (P). La sortie de chaleur rayonnante de chaque zone de chauffage est commandée séparément au moyen d'une unité de commande (154) reliée à un bloc d'alimentation. L'unité de commande (154) régule de manière individuelle la sortie des zones de chauffage. Les zones non sollicitées sont arrêtées, ce qui permet de réduire le coût du courant et d'économiser de l'énergie. Plusieurs capteurs thermiques (35), espacés latéralement à travers le trajet (P), mesurent la température superficielle des régions chauffées du substrat correspondant aux zones de chauffage en fonctionnement et maintiennent une température de point de consigne automatique. La température de chaque région chauffée individuelle peut être régulée automatiquement par réglage de la sortie de sa zone de chauffage, ce qui permet d'obtenir des substrats (S) imprimés ayant un profil de température plus uniforme. Dans un autre mode de réalisation manuel, on peut régler n'importe quelle zone de manière indépendante pour qu'elle fonctionne à n'importe quel pourcentage de pleine puissance disponible allant de zéro à 100 %. Pour renforcer l'effet de séchage total de l'ensemble sécheuse à zones, on a recours à des filtres à air à grande vitesse et à une extraction d'air (40) additionnelle.
