Patent EP-1142112-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LYONS PATRICK JOHN
IPC: H04B1/38
Filed: 1999-12-22
Abstract: A narrow band radio receiver (1) comprises a signal mixer (5) which mixes the received signal with a variable frequency output signal received from a variable frequency signal generating circuit (6). A signal, the frequency of which is the difference between the frequencies of the received signal and the variable frequency output signal is relayed to an intermediate filter (10) which filters out signals of frequencies other than an intermediate frequency, which is similar to the difference frequency. The filtered signal is amplified and demodulated through an amplifier (12), demodulator (14) and is passed through an output circuit (15) where it is read by a microprocessor (16). On the microprocessor (16) determining that the signal is in valid format the signal is outputted through a gate (18). The circuit (6) is in the form of a phase locked loop circuit and a voltage controlled oscillator (23) generates the variable frequency output signal. A phase comparator (25) compares the signal frequency outputted by the voltage controlled oscillator (23) with a constant frequency signal from a signal generator (20) and applies a signal proportional to the phase difference to a control input port (28) of the voltage controlled oscillator (23) through an adder (30). A first switch (SW1) breaks the feedback loop (27) when the circuit has locked-up and a capacitive circuit (36) retains the DC voltage on pin (1) of the adder (30) at the locked-up voltage. The microprocessor (16) through a digital to analogue converter (32) applies a stepped staircase voltage to a pin (2) of the adder (30) which is added to the locked-up voltage which in turn causes the voltage controlled oscillator (23) to sweep the frequency of the variable frequency output signal through incremental frequency steps in a staircase fashion.

Inventor: STEINBISS VOLKER
IPC: G10L15/06
Filed: 1999-12-16
Abstract: A small vocabulary pattern recognition system is used for recognizing a sequence of words, such as a sequence of digits (e.g. telephone number) or a sequence of commands. A representation of reference words is stored in a vocabulary (132, 134). Input means (110) are used for receiving a time-sequential input pattern representative of a spoken or written word sequence. A pattern recognizer (120) comprises a word-level matching unit (130) for generating a plurality of possible sequences of words by statistically comparing the input pattern to the representations of the reference words of the vocabulary (132, 134). A cache (150) is used for storing a plurality of most recently recognized words. A sequence-level matching unit (140) selects a word sequence from the plurality of sequences of words in dependence on a statistical language model which provides a probability of a sequence of M words, M≥2. The probability depends on a frequency of occurrence of the sequence in the cache. In this way for many small vocabulary systems where no reliable data is available on frequency of use of word sequences, the cache is used to provide data representative of the actual use.

IPC: A01M13/00
Filed: 2007-02-21
Abstract: As shown in Figure 1 there is one embodiment of a fumigation apparatus in the form of a module (8) including a panel (10) which can be positioned in or at an opening of an enclosed space in use to define a fumigation chamber. Fumigant inlet means in the form of an orifice (12) are arranged in the panel (10) to allow a flow of a fumigant directly into the fumigation chamber during a fumigation interval. The panel (10), when positioned in use, is secure against the passage of fumigant and gases. A nominal number of mixing fans, in this case two fans (16) and (18), thoroughly circulate gases within the fumigation chamber when operating. The module (8) includes a system control box (14) linked to the fumigant delivery orifice (12) and valve system which functions to control the flow of toxic gas into the fumigation chamber. When the fumigation interval is complete, the fans (16, (18) are switched off, the flow of fumigant to the chamber is stopped and then extraction means are used for evacuation of the fumigation chamber gases. The extraction means includes a pipe (28) attached to an orifice (30) located in the lower region of the panel (10), the pipe (28) in turn connected to a contra-rotating fan (34) and an actuated butterfly valve (32) and thence to a pipe exhaust stack (36). Absorption means are operatively coupled to the extraction means to absorb the fumigant extracted from the fumigation chamber. The absorption means is in the form of a removable absorption bed cartridge (40).
