Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for recognizing speech. The inventive
method comprises the steps of receiving a speech phrase (SP), generating a
representing signal (RS) being representative for said speech phrase (SP),
determining a sequence of speech elements (H1, ..., H6), generating for each
speech element (H1, ..., H6) a duration measure (DS1, ..., DS6), generating a
sequence of words which is representative for said speech phrase (SP), and
generating a confidence measure (CM) which is representative for the probability
that the speech phrase (SP) has been recognized correctly. Further, according
to the invention, the generated confidence measure (CM) is at least based
on said duration measures (DS1, ..., DS6) for the speech elements (H1, ..., H6).
Said duration measures (DS1, ..., DS6) comprise at least information on
whether or not said respective speech elements (H1, ..., H6) compatible durations
(d1, ..., d6).

Abstract: A machine for profiling metal sheets for use primarily in roofing and also in
cladding surfaces. The set up of the machine and the method of operating it is
specified so as to provide defined conditions in a region (A) of the sheet metal which
is entering the machine. The region (A) is located between a guide set (G.1,G.2)
which holds the sheet flat in a transverse direction to the longitudinal (feed)
direction into the machine and the first (C1.A) of a number of roll sets
(C1.A,C1.B,C1.1,C1.2,C1.3) which first roll set (C1.A) commences forming a
longitudinally extending ridge (11) in the sheet. The defined conditions are that the
sheet is concave on its upper surface both in longitudinal and transverse directions
save for a bulge (10), described as a "lordosis" which is convex on the said upper
surface. A region of contraflexure of the sheet in advance of the said region is
advantageous.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, on traite du gaz naturel corrosif pour en éliminer les composés sulfurés et récupérer les hydrocarbures C4+/C5+. On lave ce gaz avec une solution aminée pour en éliminer la plus grande partie du soufre. Le gaz est ensuite refroidi de façon que les hydrocarbures C4+/C5+ et des composés sulfurés supplémentaires soient éliminés sous forme de condensats, de manière à produire un gaz ayant en tout moins de 20 parties par millier de soufre. On fait passer ce condensat dans une colonne de fractionnement, de manière à récupérer les hydrocarbures C4+/C5+. Le gaz à taux de soufre et d'hydrocarbures réduit est d'abord mis en contact avec de l'oxyde de zinc puis avec du nickel, de manière à produire un gaz ayant en tout moins de 10 parties par milliard de soufre, lequel gaz est ensuite passé dans un générateur de gaz, de manière à produire un gaz de synthèse à taux de soufre très réduit constitué d'un mélange de H2 et de CO. Ce gaz de synthèse est utile pour la mise en oeuvre d'un procédé de synthèse d'hydrocarbures permettant d'avoir une durée de vie plus longue du catalyseur de synthèse d'hydrocarbures, et une production d'hydrocarbures plus élevée par le réacteur de synthèse. La mise en contact du gaz de synthèse avec de l'oxyde de zinc diminue davantage le taux de soufre en le faisant descendre au-dessous de 3 parties par milliard.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une méthologie par laquelle on peut conditionner et passiver efficacement une chambre de traitement utilisée pour déposer des films CVD-titane (Ti ) améliorés au plasma, après un nettoyage humide (10) ou un nettoyage chimique (20) in situ, ou après chaque séquence de dépôt (40) successive. Cette technique permet à un procédé CVD, tel que par exemple, un procédé Ti-PECVD, de rétablir des propriétés de film telles que la résistivité, l'uniformité et le taux de dépôt, en un minimum de temps, et de suivre un nombre minimum de tranches de conditionnement, ce qui améliore la productivité du système. Cette technique permet également de maintenir la stabilité du système pendant une opération continue, ce qui permet de traiter de milliers de tranches pendant un nettoyage in situ de la chambre. Immédiatement après le nettoyage de la chambre et avant d'exécuter le procédé Ti-CVD sur des tranches, la méthodologie consiste à former un plasma avec un gaz réactif, de manière à chauffer des composants (16, 34) de réacteur, puis à ajouter le matériau de revêtement contenant un réactif, de manière à déposer ledit revêtement sur les composants (18) de réacteur, à introduire un gaz oxydant ou réducteur dans la chambre, de manière à stabiliser le revêtement sur les parties (20) de réacteur, puis à reprendre le procédé de traitement (40) de tranche. Au cours d'une opération continue (40) dans le Ti-CVD des tranches, la méthodologie consiste à introduire un mélange de gaz Ar et H2 formant un plasma, de manière à chauffer les composants de réacteur, le cas échéant (43), à introduire et réduire chimiquement TiCl4 (44) de manière à déposer Ti sur les composants (45) de réacteur chauffés, à introduire des gaz d'oxydation et de réduction dans la chambre pendant une période de temps nécessaire pour stabiliser le film Ti (50). On introduit, de préférence, N2 et NH3, et on exécute simultanément une passivation de tranche et une stabilisation de réacteur. La stabilisation du réacteur, et dans certains cas celle de la tranche peuvent utiliser NH3, H2O, O2 ou d'autres gaz.

Title: Method, apparatus, and system for fast base station synchronization and sector identification
Inventor: OESTBERG CHRISTER
IPC: H04W56/00
Filed: 1999-06-14
Abstract: A method, apparatus, and system perform fast sector identification and base station synchronization. The base station transmits information in primary and secondary control channels to the remote station. The remote station performs synchronization using information in the primary and secondary control channels. A group of identification codes corresponding to the sector is determined using information in the secondary control channel. If this does not result in identification of the sector, an identification code corresponding to the sector is determined from information in the primary control channel. If this does not result in identification of the sector, the sector is identified based on information multiplied with symbols, e.g., pilot symbols, in the primary control channel, without having to decode the BCCH.
