Patent EP-1406455-A1 (EP)
Title: Video signal judgment apparatus and method
Inventor: MORITA HIDEO
IPC: H04N5/44
Filed: 2002-07-08
Abstract: The present invention relates to a video signal
determining apparatus adapted to correctly detect a filmed
video signal. A subtraction circuit 5 operates a difference
between a color difference signal B-Y delayed one field
outputted from a 1-field delay circuit 3 and a color difference
signal B-Y before delay. In the case of a 4:2:0-formatted
signal, the color difference signals in the corresponding
positions of fields configuring the same frame are same in value.
The output of the subtraction circuit 5 is 0 in the case that
the input thereof is a signal of a field of the corresponding
frame, and not 0 in the case that it is a signal of a field
of the different frame. An addition circuit 6 cumulatively
adds together, over one field, the output of the subtraction
circuit 5. A comparator circuit 7 outputs 1 in the case that
the addition value is greater than a reference value, and 0
in the case smaller than the reference value. A controller
8 determines whether the inputted signal is a filmed video
signal or not, from a pattern of 1 and 0 outputted from the
comparator circuit 7. The present invention can be applied
to a DVD player.

Abstract: A system and method for post filtering signal peak reduction (110) adapted for use in a multi-carrier communication system incorporating a source of a multi-carrier communication signal band limited in plural bands corresponding to the plural carriers. A first signal path (120) receives as an input the band limited multi-carrier communication signal. A second parallel signal path includes a peak reduction calculation circuit (140) for calculating a peak reduction correction signal and a plurality of filters (170) providing a plurality of parallel filtering operations on the peak reduction correction signal corresponding to the plural bands to which the communication system is limited. The filtered peak reduction correction signals and delayed input signal are combined to provide peak adjusted output signals without violating the band limits of the communication signal or the modulation scheme of the communication signal.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, un émetteur-récepteur radiofréquence (10) est utilisé pour des communications entre les membres d'équipage d'un avion, à l'intérieur ou immédiatement à l'extérieur. En plus d'utiliser des circuits analogiques et numériques, le système selon l'invention utilise un étalement du spectre à saut de fréquence (FHSS), un étalement numérique du spectre (DSDS), un mode duplex à répartition dans le temps (TDD) ou un accès multiple à division dans le temps (TDMA) de manière à permettre un contact de communications fiable et sûr, indépendamment de conditions météorologiques défavorables, de stress de gestion ou de fonctionnement, ou d'autres conditions qui peuvent différemment affecter les transmissions tel que dans les dispositifs de l'art antérieur. Ledit système élimine pratiquement les avaries de câbles d'interconnexion dans l'avion ; les retards de fonctionnement entraînés par des câbles manquants, ou des câbles cassés; et des retards ou des dysfonctionnements résultant de câbles de mauvaise dimension, de mauvaise longueur, de mauvaise résistance au temps, etc. Etant donné qu'il n'existe pas de câble d'interconnexion dans l'avion, ledit système permet à un membre d'équipage d'avoir une plus grande liberté de mouvement dans l'environnement de l'avion et les membres d'équipage ne peuvent pas trébucher par inadvertance ou perdre l'équilibre.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et dispositif parafoudre plus particulièrement destiné à des navires mais aussi à des structures proches de l'eau et/ou des structures à terre. Selon un mode de réalisation, on dispose d'un modèle d'électrode permettant d'utiliser l'eau comme mise à la terre du parafoudre. Ces électrodes se montent de façon à ne pas être totalement submergées en régime normal du navire. Pour un mode de réalisation particulier, les électrodes ne sont pas en contact avec l'eau. En l'occurrence, ces électrodes conçues pour renforcer l'amorçage de la décharge sont partiellement au moins ou bien sensiblement totalement isolées de l'eau, de façon qu'une surface de l'électrode servant à canaliser la décharge soit apparente. Pour certains modes de réalisation, même le canal de décharge est isolé. L'invention utilise une géométrie d'électrode qui vient renforcer le champ électrique local de façon à favoriser l'interface de décharge avec l'eau dès lors qu'une charge suffisante s'est accumulée dans le système parafoudre. L'électrode de l'invention peut remplacer ou compléter les prises de terre.

Abstract: The invention relates to a working method for roll-forming profiled bars (WPS) from flat strips in a roll train consisting of a series of roll stands with shaping rollers. According to said method, the flat strip is heated and the section material is rollingly displaced from the section of the web area to the section of the angle edge area by section rolling in order to form the roll-formed profiled bar (WPS). Heating is limited to the longitudinal centre region of the angularly roll-formed profiled bar (WPS) which is subsequently fed to a roller arrangement which consists of a horizontal roller (HW) and two driven roughing-down rollers (STW1 and STW2), whereby the axes thereof (x-x) extend in an inclined manner in relation to each other at an angle corresponding to the web angle of profiled bar (WPS), forming a camber at a distance above the horizontal roller (HW). The horizontal roller (HW) comprises a roughing-down inner calibre (SKR) which is adapted to the profile of the outer angle edge (AWK) of the roll-formed profiled bar and the roughing-down rollers (STW1, STW2) have roughing-down inner calibres (SKR) which are adapted to the outer profile of the web ends (STE) of the roll-formed profiled bar (WPS) . The section material is displaced by impinging the ends (STE) of the webs (ST) by means of the roughing-down rollers (STW1 and STW2).
