Title: Automatic image quality-controlling device
Inventor: FUNAYAMA MITSUO
IPC: H04N5/931
Filed: 1996-02-23
Abstract: An automatic image quality-controlling device of the invention has the following configuration:      An FM signal output from a video head 11 is amplified in an AGC amplifier 12 to a uniform amplitude level. A lower-sideband variable peaking amplifier 15 peaks the lower-sideband spectrum. of the FM signal. The lower-sideband of the output from the amplifier 15 is extracted through a lower-sideband filter 18. The amplitudes of the lower sideband thus extracted are converted into a d.c. voltage by a peak detecting circuit 19. This d.c. voltage is compared with a reference voltage by a comparator 20 to output an error voltage. The error voltage is fed back to the lower-sideband variable peaking amplifier 15 so that the ratio between the magnitudes of the carrier wave and the lower-side band component of the FM signal to be demodulated is made constant.   Thus, the device of the invention is set up so that the amplitudes of the lower-sideband spectrum of the FM signal are made uniform at a level which allows an optimum S/N value and the best resolution, whereby it is possible to produce sharp images.

Abstract: This invention relates to improvements in controlling the decoder buffer occupancy, particularly in relation to, but not exclusively to, switching between compressed bitstreams. This invention provides a method of modifying a digital bitstream 11 to be transmitted through a decoder 14 having a buffer 15. An expected level of buffer occupancy is determined for a point in the digital bitstream 11 and the digital bitstream 11 is modified at that point to change the buffer occupancy toa second level. The second level may be determined from a second digital bitstream 12. One advantage of this method is that the occupancy of the buffer 15 can be adjusted to match the buffer requirements of the second bitstream 12 before switching to the second bitstream 12. The invention provides method and apparatus for improving the decoder buffer management during switching between bitstreams.

Patent CA-2237377-A1 (CA)
Inventor: VOKEY DAVID E
IPC: G01M3/04
Filed: 1992-04-10
Abstract: The invention provides a monitor for monitoring the condition of fibre optic communication cables. The system employs one or more of the optical fibres of a cable to monitor the cable structure for damage or kinks. By using two separate laser sources and simultaneously monitoring the optical losses at two distinct and separate wavelengths, the loss signature of the monitored fibre is determined, analyzed and related to the mechanical condition of the cable structure. To monitor splice points for moisture, a special optical splice sensor unit detects any penetration of water into the splice and transmits a coded alarm signal over the monitored fibre to the optical receiver. Every splice location is assigned a unique sensor code. The optical splice sensor is driven by moisture detection cell, which forms a single cell water activated battery. Water entering the monitored splice closure wets the tape, which activates the cell. The cell generates sufficient voltage and current to power timing, code generation and modulator circuits in the sensor unit for an extended period of time. The activated circuit drives a modulator which modulates the light travelling down the fibre. The modulated light is monitored at the equipment office and the address of the alarming sensor decoded.
