Inventor: ROUHANA WILLIAM J JR
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2007-11-05
Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for the delivery of digital television and interactive broadband service in a manner that maximizes the useage of the digital broadcast spectrum. A digital television signal is transmitted to a given broadcast area in a relatively small part (for example, a 1 MHz band) of one or more licensed portions of the digital broadcast spectrum. Interactive broadband service is delivered within at least a portion of the same broadcast area covered by the broadcast digital television signal, in the remainder (for example, a 5 MHz band) of an unused part of the same licensed portion of the digital broadcast spectrum as is occupied by the digital television signal, or within an unlicensed (unused) portion of the digital broadcast spectrum. The broadcasting of the digital television and delivery the interactive broadband service occur simultaneously.    In one embodiment, digital television and broadband service are delivered by the same equipment within the same bandwidth.

Title: Method of producing microbeads
Inventor: BRODKORB ANDRE
IPC: A23L11/30
Filed: 2010-04-13
Abstract: A method for producing microbeads comprising an active component encapsulated within a gelled polymer matrix comprises the steps of providing a suspension of denatured whey protein and an active component, treating the suspension to generate microbeads, and immediately curing the microbeads by acidification. The microbeads are discrete droplets of gelled whey protein having an average diameter in the micron range (for example, from 80 to 500microns) and which suitably have a generally spherical shape. The microbeads are capable of surviving passage through the stomach, and delivering the encapsulated active agent in the instesting. Ex-vivo and in-vivo data shows that active agent encapsulated within microbeads retains its functionality upon delivery to the intestine, and that coating of the microcapsules allows targeted delivery of the active agent to the distal part of the intestine.

Title: Method and apparatus for multi-sensory speech enhancement
Inventor: ACERO ALEJANDRO
IPC: G10L21/02
Filed: 2004-10-25
Abstract: A method and system use an alternative sensor signal received from a sensor other than an air conduction microphone to estimate a clean speech value. The estimation uses either the alternative sensor signal alone, or in conjunction with the air conduction microphone signal. The clean speech value is estimated without using a model trained from noisy training data collected from an air conduction microphone. Under one embodiment, correction vectors are added to a vector formed from the alternative sensor signal in order to form a filter, which is applied to the air conductive microphone signal to produce the clean speech estimate. In other embodiments, the pitch of a speech signal is determined from the alternative sensor signal and is used to decompose an air conduction microphone signal. The decomposed signal is then used to determine a clean signal estimate.
