Abstract: DVDs have currently the highest storage density among the
optical discs of practical use. Due to the high storage density
the reproduced signal is deteriorated by noise caused
by inter-symbol interference, crosstalk, focus error, or
mastering errors. A conventional threshold bit detector generates
a high bit error rate in case of low SNR. For accurate
reproduction of digital data from a DVD under low SNR
conditions, a specific Viterbi detector is used which performs
maximum likelihood sequence estimation.

Abstract: A vibration damping device is mounted between two spaced portions of a
vehicle for absorbing road forces exerted on the vehicle. A cylindrical housing (2)
forms an internal piston chamber and is connected at one end to one portion of the
vehicle, with an outer end of the rod (15) of a piston (13) which is slidably mounted within the
piston chamber, being connected to another portion of the vehicle. A fluid transfer
duct (33) is formed between the housing and piston and provides communication
between fluid subchambers formed on opposite sides of the piston within the piston
chamber. An electrode (26) is attached to either the housing or piston for applying a
voltage across the duct to affect the rheological response of an electrorheological
(ER) fluid (28) flowing therethrough to provide a controllable mechanism to modify the
damping force characteristics of the device. Each end of the piston rod (15) is slidably
supported by a slide bushing assembly (58,59) which is mounted within an end of the
housing. The slide bushing assemblies (58,59) are separated from the ER fluid contained
in the fluid chamber by elastomeric seals (69) to reduce bushing wear and deterioration

Abstract: A digital loudspeaker responsive to a binary digital audio signal received at an input
(26). The digital loudspeaker is manufactured as an integrated module comprising an
array of acoustic output transducers each with a diaphragm (20) including a conductive
layer arranged facing a further conductive layer across a gap. The conductive layers of
each transducer form a parallel plate capacitor so that a drive signal applied across the
capacitor induces electrostatic force between the capacitor plates, thereby driving the
diaphragm (20). The non-linear response of the diaphragms (20) is compensated for
by pulse shaping circuits (22) which are arranged adjacent the associated diaphragms
(20). The pulse shaping circuits (22) each receive a unary digital drive signal from an
encoder circuit (24) via tracks (28). The encoder circuit (24) serves to convert the
binary digital audio signal received at the input (26) into a large number of unary
digital drive signals, one for each of the output transducers. Using standard silicon
processing technology, the entire integrated loudspeaker module, including transducers
and drive circuitry, can be integrated onto a single silicon wafer, or two wafers
arranged facing each other. In this way, arrays of a thousand transducers or more can
be manufactured in a single integrated module of modest total area.
