Patent EP-0786904-A2 (EP)
Inventor: JACQUIN ARNAUD ERIC
IPC: H04N5/455
Filed: 1997-01-14
Abstract: An adaptive postfiltering arrangement for decoding video images is disclosed wherein the postfilter parameters used to control the strength of the postfilter (235) are computed by the encoder (211) at the time the video images (220) are encoded and are transmitted (on 212, 214) to the postfilter as side information contained in the video image bitstream (on 213). The postfilter removes distortions from decoded video images, derived as a result of DCT coefficient quantization errors produced when the image is compressed for transmission to a decoder, and is based on computation (on 212) of signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs), of one or more components of encoded video images. Other information about image content, such as face location information (on 214), can also be included in the side information sent to the postfilter in the video image bitstream, to modulate the postfilter strength according to the image content.

Abstract: A synthesized oscillation circuit that can relax a limit of the maximum operational frequency. A mixer (MX) (14), a bandpass filter (BPF) (16), an amplitude limiting amplifier (LIM) (18), a phase detector (PD) (20), a low-pass filter (LPF) (22), and a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) (24) are serially connected between a signal input terminal (IN) (10) and a signal output terminal (OUT) (12). The signal output terminal (OUT) is connected the mixer (MX) and the phase detector (PD). The bandpass filter (BPF) has the filtering characteristic which blocks the sum frequency component of the frequency component of an input signal from the signal input terminal (IN) to the mixer (MX) and the frequency component of an output signal from the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) to the mixer (MX) but passes the difference frequency component between them. The low-pass filter (LPF) has the filtering characteristic which blocks the sum frequency component of the frequency component of a signal from the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) to the phase detector (PD) and the frequency component of a signal from the voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) to the phase detector (PD) but passes the difference frequency signal between them.

Abstract: Un système d'auto-vérification automatique comprend une pluralité de canaux ou voies (100A-100D) de traitement de capteurs, chaque voie comportant un capteur (102A-102D) qui permet de fournir, directement ou indirectement, une valeur numérique à un comparateur (106A-106D). Celui-ci compare la valeur mesurée à une valeur prédéterminée, qui est elle-même fournie à une logique de coïncidence (108A-108D). Cette dernière compare la sortie de son comparateur à la sortie des comparateurs des autres voies, de façon à fournir une indication de sortie d'un état réussite/échec. Chaque voie de traitement de capteur comprend deux sous-voies qui peuvent être associées avec ou commutées vers la voie de traitement pendant que la sous-voie dissociée est soumise à un test hors ligne par un processeur test. On réalise le test en fournissant une valeur numérique à la sous-voie testée, tout en détectant la sortie de façon à déterminer la validité fonctionnelle de ladite sous-voie. L'état logique combinatoire du système est contrôlé et converti en une valeur décimale, qui est comparée à l'ensemble des valeurs décimales correspondant aux états logiques finis bien connus du système. L'apparition d'une valeur décimale ne faisant pas partie dudit ensemble de valeurs indique donc une panne.

Abstract: An air belt 2B has a bag-like belt potion 10 and a
knit cover 12 that surround the bag-like belt portion 10.
The bag-like portion 10 has a greater width in the part
that fits to the passenger's body between the shoulder and
abdomen. The enlarged part of the bag-like portion 10 is
folded on top of itself to form a strap-like shape. The
knit cover 12 is woven so that it is expandable in the
direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of
the belt, but virtually not in the longitudinal direction.
Upon activation of a gas generator 9 with a buckle 4
engaged with a tongue 5, the air belt 2B inflates. During
the inflation, the length of the knit cover 12 shortens in
the longitudinal direction of the belt 2B, thereby causing
the belt 2B to tightly fit on the passenger's body. This
ensures the proper protection of the passenger.

Abstract: The method involves increasing a sampling rate of a digital input signal (An) and a digital reference signal (Sp) by an element M from a predetermined low value to a predetermined high value. The values of the input signal (Anm) and the reference signal (Spm) sampled with the high sampling rate, are decorellated at least up to a certain degree. A non-recursive adaptive digital filter (22) produces a compensation signal (y) from the decorellated input signal (x), based on N filter coefficients (cg to cN-1). The filter coefficients are determined in an adaptation unit (44) operated with the high sampling rate, which is dependent on a difference signal (d) from the decorellated reference signal (s) and compensation signal according to the smallest average of squared errors. The sampling rate of the difference signal is reduced by the element M, from the predetermined high value to the predetermined low value.

Abstract: In a power unit for a vehicle, an internal
combustion engine, equipped with electromagnetic valves
on the respective cylinders and a generator connected to
the output shaft of the engine, is provided. The
electromagnetic valves are controlled by an
electromagnetic valve actuating device. The generator
converts at least a part of the engine output into
electric power. The generated electric power is stored
in a battery. The electric power stored in the battery
is supplied to a motor in order to drive the vehicle. A
control unit controls the output of motor in accordance
with the requirement of the driver of the vehicle. Since
the engine is not directly controlled by the driver, the
engine can be operated at a predetermined speed range
regardless of the requirements of the driver. This speed
range is selected so that the maximum reliability and
durability of the electromagnetic valves can be obtained.
Thus, the advantages of the electromagnetic valves such
as a low mechanical loss can be obtained without causing
the problems relating to the durability and reliability
of the electromagnetic valves.

Abstract: In a bulk material analyzer in which bulk material (38) is received in an activation
region (34) between a pair of neutron sources (14) laterally disposed on one side of the
activation region for emitting neutrons for bombarding the bulk material within the
activation region to cause gamma-rays to be emitted from the bombarded bulk material
and a pair of gamma-ray detectors (16) laterally disposed on an opposite side of the
activation region for detecting gamma-rays emitted from the bulk material, and in which
a neutron moderator (20) is disposed between the neutron sources and the activation
region for reducing the velocity of the emitted neutrons such that the neutrons entering
the activation region include thermal neutrons and faster neutrons, the uniformity of
sensitivity of the bulk material analyzer to materials at different positions in a sample of
the bulk material being analyzed is enhanced by controlling the proportions of thermal
neutron at different positions within the sample being analyzed. A neutron absorber (23)
disposed close to the one side of the activation region reduces the proportion of thermal
neutrons that enter the activation region from the one side of the activation region. A
neutron reflector (25) disposed on the opposite side of the activation region at least as
close to the activation region as the gamma-ray detectors reflects neutrons into the
activation region for bombarding bulk material within the activation region. In some
embodiments, the neutron absorber and/or the neutron reflector are adjustable; and the
disposition of the neutron sources also is adjustable for also adjusting the proportion of
the thermal neutrons that enter the activation region from the one side of the activation
region.

Abstract: L'invention concerne l'évaluation des distances par des ondes électromagnétiques, notamment pour l'évaluation de courtes distances dans une installation radar. Un émetteur (1) émet un signal FM, pouvant être modulé par un signal sinusoïdal ou triangulaire et dont la fréquence de modulation peut varier dans le temps. Dans une partie récepteur (11) de l'installation, un signal d'écho reçu est mélangé, dans un mélangeur (9), à un signal de fuite (7) prélevé côté (4) émetteur. Des signaux sont extraits du spectre obtenu autour de plusieurs multiples de la fréquence de modulation au moyen de détecteurs cohérents (19a, 19b) dans différentes branches (a, b) de traitement de signal. Après le mélange, une modulation de produit peut également être effectuée au moyen d'un signal de référence sous forme d'un signal sinusoïdal approprié. Les signaux provenant des branches de traitement (a, b) de signal sont acheminés vers un dispositif (27) qui produit une différence pondérée. En cas d'utilisation de signaux de commande (vref,a, vref,b) appropriés destinés aux détecteurs cohérents (19a, 19b), la puissance du signal de différence augmente considérablement lorsque l'installation augmente l'objet qui provoque le signal d'écho. Les signaux de commande destinés aux détecteurs sont sélectionnés de manière que différentes combinaisons linéaires spéciales soient sélectionnées dans la modulation du signal entrant, ce qui permet de mettre en oeuvre des fonctions liées aux paramètres de distance.
