Patent EP-1279295-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BRULS WILHELMUS H A
IPC: H04N7/26
Filed: 2001-04-13
Abstract: The concept of B-frames gives the MPEG video compression standard its high encoding efficiency. However, B-frame encoding roughly doubles the complexity of an MPEG encoder. In view thereof, MPEG encoders have been developed which produce I-frames and P-frames only. They are less complex but also less efficient. To improve the efficiency of such 'IPP encoders', selected P-frames are quantized more coarsely than other P-frames, for example, by multiplying the conventional quantization step size by 1.4. Although this results in isolated frames ('virtual B-frames') being encoded with a lower quality, the overall perceptual quality is not affected. It has been found that the gain in bit rate obtained by the coarser quantization is not lost in subsequent P-frames, even though the subsequent frames are encoded with reference to the lower quality frames.

Abstract: The present invention provides a bricklaying structure, a bricklaying
method and brick manufacturing method adaptable to a variety of
architectural details of structure such as corner, opening and columnar
configurations. The brick (1; 1';10;20;30;40) is provided with a bolt hole
(7;17;27;37;47) and through-holes (8;18;28;38;48). The bolt hole has a
diameter which allows a bolt (60) to extend therethrough and the through-hole
has a diameter for containing a nut (70). The bolt hole and through-holes are
arranged on a longitudinal center line of the brick in order, and a center of the
bolt hole, centers of the through-holes and respective end faces of the brick
are spaced apart an equal distance from each other in a longitudinal direction
of the brick. The bricks and metallic plates are vertically stacked and the
bricks are integrally connected under pre-stress with each other by tightening
the bolts (60) extending through the vertical bolt holes. In the corner part in
which the bricks join together at a predetermined angle with each other, the
bolt holes and through-holes are vertically aligned at an intersecting zone of
wall (external corner or internal corner) so as to form a continuous and
vertical hole. The bolts (60;65) are inserted into the vertical hole and the
nuts (69;70) are tightened to the bolt. The vertically adjacent bricks are
integrally joined under pre-stress by securely tightening the bolts and nuts.

Abstract: The compound woven fabric, has at least two layers (10,12) of separate warps (8) forming the upper (14) and lower (16) surfaces of the material. The wefts are woven at least into the layer of warps forming the upper side. To form the alternating bonding pattern (22) with the warps, at least one pair of support wefts (18,20) pass over the warps in a structured pattern. The compound woven fourdrinier material uses one weft (18) for a given number of warps, to give the passage over them in the weaving pattern, and the other weft (20) moves at least partially between the warp layers as a filament bridge (24) for a number of successive warps. The two wefts in each pair intersect at set points (26) so that the woven weft forms the bridge and back to the woven pattern. The alternating weaving pattern is formed by the two wefts in each pair covering each warp in the upper warp layer on the outer side. Where the paired wefts are not in the alternating weaving pattern, they are bonded with the warps of the lower warp layer. Additional bonding filaments (27) lock the two warp layers together. The support wefts are of different materials. The weaving pattern gives a weft bonding repeat structure at the upper side with eight, 10 or 12 warps.

Abstract: Rotary PSA systems, both axial and radial flow, with M > 1, provide interpenetrating, layered manifolds to accommodate all of the steps of a complex PSA cycle, suitable with equal compactness for any value of "M". This approach extends readily to accommodate a plurality of rotary PSA modules and their cooperating compression machinery within a single layered manifold assembly for a single PSA plant train. The rotary PSA apparatus includes stators that define fluid ports, which include PSA cycle sectors, each sector being defined by a light product delivery port, light product withdrawal ports, and light reflux return ports. Adsorber elements may directly contact one or more of the stators in a fluidly sealing manner. A PSA method uses the described apparatus and then supplies at least one feed fluid to pressurize an adsorber sets to substantially a higher pressure to initiate the PSA cycle.

Abstract: A method for compensating for the pulse area error of a Class-D power
amplifier is achieved; especially it compensates the variations in the supply
voltage and similar dependencies. A Class-D Amplifier typically gets pulse coded
digital input (PCM) and may comprise a Sigma Delta Modulator to generate the
signals driving the power output stage, typically an H-Bridge. A fundamental idea
of this invention is to measure the real area of the output pulses, where the area is
defined as the pulse duration multiplied by the pulse voltage amplitude, and to
compare it with the ideal nominal pulse area. The pulse area error is calculated
and then subtracted from said amplifier's input data. Key element of this invention
is the "Pulse Area Compensation Function", which calculates said real pulse area
(voltage amplitude multiplied by time), compares said real pulse area with said
ideal pulse area and feeds the difference into the input of said Sigma Delta
Modulator.
