Abstract: Visible watermarking techniques for digital images and video operate on decoded transform coefficients and maintain the watermarked data in the same compressed format as the original so that the watermarked data can be viewed with standard tools and applications. Moreover, for most of the techniques presented, the watermarked data has exactly the same compressed size as the original. The watermark can be inserted and removed using a key for applications requiring content protection. The watermark insertion and removal algorithms are very efficient and exploit some features of compressed data formats (such as JPEG and MPEG) which allow most of the work to be done in the compressed domain. <IMAGE>

Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a portable terminal whose power consumption is reduced by performing power supply control.  <P>SOLUTION: Power to a tuner 30a is intermittently supplied at a predetermined time interval in a power saving mode. If the reception level from the tuner 30a to a level detecting section 16a is not less than a predetermined level, a determining section 16c allows a selection control section 16d to output a selection signal to a selecting section 27 so that power to an OFDM I/F30b and an OFDM demodulator 31 may be turned on. If the error rate from the OFDM demodulator 31 to an error rate detecting section 16b is not more than the predetermined level, the section 16c allows the section 16d to output a selection signal to the section 27 so that power to a decoder section 13, a display section 20 and a speaker 21 may be turned on. In this way, since power is not wastefully supplied to each of members and the minimum number of circuits can operate the terminal, the power consumption can be reduced.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Abstract: According to the invention, a time-discrete audio signal is processed (52) in order to provide a quantization block with quantized spectral values (52). In addition, a whole-number spectral representation is generated from a time-discrete audio signal, using a whole-number transformation algorithm (56). The quantization block, which has been generated using a psychoacoustic model (54), is inverse quantized and rounded (58) to form a differential between the whole-number spectral values and the inverse quantized rounded spectral values. The quantization block alone produces a psychoacoustic encoded/decoded audio signal affected by loss after the decoding process, whereas the quantization block together with the combination block provides a loss-free, or practically loss-free encoded and decoded audio signal during said decoding process. The generation of the differential signal in the frequency range allows a simpler encoder/decoder structure to be produced.

Abstract: The present invention relates to separator-electrode units for lithium batteries and also to a process for their production. The separator-electrode units comprise a porous electrode which is useful as a positive electrode (cathode) or negative electrode (anode) in a lithium battery and a separator layer applied to this electrode and are characterized in that the separator-electrode units comprise a purely inorganic separator layer which comprises at least two fractions of metal oxide particles which differ from each other in their average particle size and/or in the metal. More particularly, the separator layer comprises metal oxide particles having an average particle size (Dg) which is greater than the average pore size (d) of the pores of the porous positive electrode that are bonded together by metal oxide particles having a particle size (Dk) which is smaller than the pores of the porous electrode. The separator-electrode unit of the invention has the advantage that it is simple to manufacture as one component and, since the step of laminating the separator onto the electrode can be omitted, that it can comprise a large variation of materials. In addition, a separator-electrode unit according to the invention possesses excellent mechanical stability and a very low separator thickness, which is why it can even be used in lithium high energy batteries.

Abstract: Provided herein are polyamine precursors useful in the manufacture of epoxy resins. Use of a polyamine precursor according to the invention provides an epoxy resin formulation having an increased working time over prior art amines used for curing epoxies. Increased working times translate to the ability to manufacture composites which could not be made using conventional epoxy curing agents, such as composite blades for wind-driven turbines. Such polyamines are also useful in polyurea formulations for lengthening reaction time, thus allowing more flow of applied polyurea coatings prior to gellation.
