Abstract: The invention proposes a technique for measuring chromatic dispersion in an optical communication line transmitting an optical signal at a predetermined optical wavelength. The technique comprises determining the sign of chromatic dispersion and includes introducing controlled changes of wavelength around the predetermined wavelength, monitoring the optical signal that has passed said line, and obtaining a first and a second signals, wherein the first signal reflects changes of the carrier wavelength, and the second signal reflects changes of delay of the optical signal transmitted via the line. The two signals are compared and the chromatic dispersion sign is determined based on the phase difference there-between.

Abstract: System and methods for non-intrusive real-time eye detection and tracking are disclosed. A subject's eyes can be detected by using active illumination analysis to generate a difference image of the subject. In the difference image, the bright pupil effect intensifies the appearance of the subject's pupils. A component analysis can be used to identify a set of pupil candidates from the difference image. An appearance-based analysis can be applied to the pupil candidates to identify the subject's eyes from background noise that can occur under various lighting conditions. After the subject's eyes are detected, a multi-stage tracking process is disclosed for detecting real-time eye movements. Further features are disclosed such as an image acquisition apparatus that reduces external illumination interferences.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cancellation of echoes in telecommunications systems, more specifically it relates to adaptive alignment of a linear filter ( 500 ) used for echo cancellation. According to the invention, it is continuously determined, by means of control logic ( 520 ), if a reflection replica delay included in an echo replica signal (110), which delay is provided by a signal buffer ( 510 ), should be attempted to be increased or not. Similarly, it is continuously determined if the reflection replica delay should be attempted to be decreased or not. In this way it is possible to provide a delay of the reflection replica which corresponds to the pure delay of a corresponding reflection included in an echo signal (120) received over an echo path. The invention is advantageous since the filter ( 500 ) will continuously and quickly adapt to changes in the echo path delay by continuously increasing or decreasing, in an incremental and smooth manner, a present replica delay.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the observation of a number of objects, which move in a space monitored by a number of sensors, are recorded by the sensors and followed with continuous updating of at least the sensor track defining the kinematics of the object, whereby those provided sensor tracks amongst the sensor tracks from various sensors, which correspond to the same object are automatically assigned to a system track. In order to improve the method with regard to an efficient assignment of the sensor tracks, which is reliable, has a reduced error probability and runs essentially automatically, an assignment of a sensor track to at least one system track is always carried out if a decision on the non-correspondence to the system track can not be securely taken. Subsequently, assigned sensor tracks are continuously monitored for the continued assignment thereof to the assigned system track and on determining the non-correspondence thereof, are removed from said system track. For each system track whose correspondence to a system track is securely excluded, a new system track is generated. The determination of non-correspondence is irreversible.
