Patent EP-1136171-A3 (EP)
Inventor: WATANEBE MIKIO
IPC: B23K11/26
Filed: 2001-03-14
Abstract: This power supply apparatus comprises a charging circuit
(30) for charging a capacitor (12). The charging circuit (30)
includes a transformer (32), a rectifying circuit (34), a
switching element (36), an inductance coil (38) and a
freewheeling diode (40). The rectifying circuit (34)
full-wave rectifies an AC power supply voltage E 1  acquired
on the secondary side of the transformer (32) to provide a
DC voltage as its output. When the switching element (36)
is turned on or becomes conductive, a DC current I c  is allowed
to flow through a circuit (43) extending from a positive output
terminal (34a) of the rectifying circuit (34) through the
switching circuit (36) and the inductance coil (38) to a
negative output terminal (34b) of the rectifying circuit (34).
Once the switching element (36) is switched from its ON state
to OFF state, a current I d  based on the inductance coil (38)
flows in the forward direction of the diode (40) through a
closed circuit (46) consisting of the inductance coil (38),
capacitor (12) and the diode (40) such that the capacitor (12)
is charged with the freewheeling current I d .

Patent EP-1294198-A3 (EP)
Inventor: MALVAR HENRIQUE S
IPC: H04N1/41
Filed: 2002-08-27
Abstract: An improved method and block transform for image or video encoding and decoding, wherein transformation and inverse transformation matrixes are defined such that computational complexity is significantly reduced when encoding and decoding. For example, in the two-dimensional inverse transformation of de-quantized transform coefficients into output pixel information during decoding, only four additions plus one shift operation are needed, per co-efficient transformation, all in sixteen-bit arithmetic. Transformations provide correct results because quantization during encoding and dequantization (sixteen bit) during decoding, via the use of one of three tables selected based on each coefficient's position, have parameter values that already compensate for factors of other transformation multiplications, except for those of a power of two, (e.g., two or one-half), which are performed by a shift operation during the transformation and inverse transformation processes. Computational complexity is significantly reduced with respect to other known transforms without adversely impacting compression or quality.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for automated cell analysis of biological specimens automatically
scans at a low magnification to acquire images (288) which are analyzed to
determine candidate cell objects of interest. The low magnification images are
converted from a first color space to a second color space (290). The color space
converted image is then low pass filtered (292) and compared to a threshold (294) to
remove artifacts and background objects from the candidate object of interest pixels
of the color converted image. The candidate object of interest pixels are morphologically
processed (296) to group candidate object of interest pixels together into
groups which are compared to blob parameters (298) to identify candidate objects of
interest which correspond to cells or other structures relevant to medical diagnosis of
the biological specimen. The location coordinates of the objects of interest are
stored and additional images of the candidate cell objects are acquired at high
magnification. The high magnification images are analyzed in the same manner as
the low magnification images to confirm the candidate objects of interest which are
objects of interest. A high magnification image of each confirmed object of interest
is stored for later review and evaluation by a pathologist.

IPC: H04W64/00

Abstract: A high accuracy search and tracking system that uses a round-trip messaging scheme in which the time of arrive (TOA) of ranging signals is accurately determined to yield the range estimates between a target communications device and one or more search communications devices. Successive ranging estimates are used by a search device to home in upon the target device. The physical location pinpoint communications system can be used alone, or in combination with other location estimation systems that can be used initially, or throughout the search and tracking process to pinpoint the physical location of the target device. The search radio(s) transmits ranging signals to the target radio which responds by transmitting reply ranging signals. Upon reception of the reply ranging signal, the search radio determines the range to the reference radio from the signal propagation time. Errors in TOA estimates can be minimized using advanced processing techniques, if required.

Abstract: In order to provide a low noise laser beam, a noise reducing feedback network is
provided which creates a noise reducing signal and provides that signal to the laser (12) itself. In
order to produce the noise reducing signal, the operation of the laser (12) is monitored and the
feedback signal is a direct result of this monitoring. Monitoring is accomplished by a fast-forward
sense detector (40), which receives a portion of the laser beam (30) from the operating
laser (12). The output from this fast-forward sense detector (40) is provided to an amplifier (46)
which inverts and amplifies the signal. A noise reduction feedback network (60) then receives
the amplified signal, appropriately filters this signal, and provides it to the laser (12) itself so as
to reduce noise in the laser-beam for the frequency band of importance for reading the recorded
data from the optical medium. The noise reduction feedback signal further has sufficiently high
impedance so as to not disturb the traditional CW operation of the laser (12) and to avoid
interference with the traditional RF modulation of the laser (12).
