Abstract: The PN code generation controlling means 15 produces
a PN code generation clock signal PNCLK to generate the PN
code of one chip to one vertical section and supplies this
clock signal to an SS duplication preventing control signal
generating means 16. The SS duplication preventing control
signal generating means 16 generates the PN code of one
chip to one vertical section depending on the PN code
generation clock signal PNCLK and executes t he spectrum
spread to the duplication preventing control signal S3
using this PN code to form the SS duplication preventing
control signal S5. The SS duplication preventing control
signal S5 is superimposed to the image signal and is then
output. Thereby, elimination and deterioration of the
additional information which has been spectrum spread and
is then superimposed into the image signal can be prevented
to surely provide the additional information superimposed
to the image signal.

IPC: B31D1/02
Filed: 1998-06-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing a strip with self-adhesive labels (12) or other materials with parts (22) placed underneath. According to the invention, the labels are detached from a first carrier strip (11) at a first removal station (13) and placed onto a second carrier strip (14). The other parts (22) are delivered intermittently on a third carrier strip (21). A second removal station (23) detaches said other parts and places them on a fourth carrier strip (24) in the desired position. Said fourth carrier strip (24) may act as the second carrier strip (14). The original carrier strip (11) may also act as the second or fourth carrier strip. The other parts (22) can be placed in any position under the labels (12) using an appropriate control system. Security elements can be used advantageously as other parts. This provides a simple means of producing a strip of security labels. The security element is transferred onto the item being labelled at the same time, i.e. during the same operation as the self-adhesive label is peeled off of the carrier strip, said security element then protecting said item. The invention also relates to a device for laterally controlling and regulating the guiding of lines and strips, especially lines of labels and their carrier strips, the edge of the line being identified by means of a line-edge control device with a sensor. The regulating process takes place by changing the direction of the control rolls over which the line is guided. According to the invention, a sliding is also provided, the line being guided in said sliding. The sliding has a straight edge which conveys a reference edge to the sensor for determining the edge of the line, and is arranged in the area of the sensor. The sliding is easy-running and floats along with the laterally guided line.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring the fade margin in a radio system. The system comprises at least one transmitter (11a; 11b) and at least one receiver (12b; 12a) which in an operational situation establish a fixed radio connection. In the method, the receiver is calibrated by supplying the receiver with an input signal at several different power levels and determining the correspondence between the supplied signal level and a quantity detected by the receiver. To enable the fade margin to be determined as simply as possible, (a) the calibration is carried out in such a way that at least one supplied power level is close to the noise level of the receiver, (b) in a situation where substantially mere noise is summed into the payload signal, a threshold value (PTH1) for the received signal level, corresponding to a predetermined bit error ratio, is determined for the receiver, (c) in an operational situation of the radio system, the signal level arriving at the receiver is determined without payload signal, (d) on the basis of the calibration data and the level determined in step (c), that threshold value for the received signal level which corresponds to said predetermined bit error ratio in the operational situation of the radio system is determined, and (e) the fade margin is determined on the basis of the threshold value for the operational situation and the signal level measured in the operational situation of the system.

Abstract: A transparency coding apparatus for coding a transparency
signal corresponding to an object constituting an image, which
transparency signal indicates a composition ratio used when
compcsiting an image signal of the object with another image
signal. This apparatus comprises a scaling value detection unit
for receiving a transparency signal whose signal value has been
changed with a fixed scale factor, and detecting a specific
signal value corresponding to the fixed scale factor as a scaling
value; a scaling unit for performing scaling on the transparency
signal whose signal value has been changed, by using the detected
scaling value, and outputting a scaled transparency signal whose
signal value is restored to the original signal value before the
change; a first coding unit for coding the scaling value to
output coded scaling value data; a blocking unit for dividing the
scaled transparency signal into signals corresponding to plural
blocks each comprising a predetermined number of pixels, and
outputting a transparency signal corresponding to each block; and
a second coding unit for coding the transparency signal
corresponding to each block to output a coded transparency signal.
Therefore, the process of uniformly changing the transparency
values of the transparency signal in VOP units, can be performed
easily and independently of coding of the transparency signal,
while improving the coding efficiency of the transparency signal.
