Title: Condensateur electrolytique a anodes enroulees multiples decalees
Inventor: O'PHELAN MICHAEL J
IPC: H01G9/04
Filed: 1999-05-05
Abstract: L'invention concerne un condensateur électrolytique à anodes enroulées multiples, qui comporte un empilement de plusieurs anodes formées de bandelettes en aluminium gravé par effet tunnel à haut gain de feuille. Au niveau de leurs bords terminaux internes, les anodes (215A, 215B) d'un empilement sont mutuellement décalées d'une distance prédéterminée. Le fait de décaler les bords terminaux des anodes réduit de manière avantageuse les contraintes mécaniques à l'intérieur des enroulements du condensateur. Ceci augmente la fiabilité du condensateur, permet de diminuer avantageusement le diamètre de la lumière du mandrin, augmente la densité énergétique par unité de volume du condensateur et permet de diminuer son volume. Quand il est utilisé dans un défibrillateur implantable ou un autre dispositif de gestion du rythme cardiaque, ce petit condensateur réduit avantageusement son volume ou bien permet d'utiliser une plus grosse batterie, ce qui prolonge sa vie utile.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de traitement de signal destiné au traitement d'un signal ayant été émis via un canal d'émission. Ce procédé consiste à recevoir (S11) une pluralité d'échantillons de ce signal, à analyser (S12) l'amplitude d'un sous ensemble de cette pluralité d'échantillons reçus, et à estimer (S13) la variance de ce signal fondée sur l'amplitude du sous ensemble de la pluralité d'échantillons reçus. Cette invention concerne aussi un dispositif de traitement de signal correspondant. Ainsi peut-on estimer la variance en se fondant sur l'amplitude du signal reçu. Par conséquent, les informations relatives à la réponse impulsionnelle ou à la séquence d'apprentissage ne sont plus requises. En outre, aucun «prétraitement» est requis pour obtenir une fonction de réponse impulsionnelle canal sur la base de laquelle la variance est ensuite estimée, ce qui raccourcit le temps de traitement nécessaire. Cette invention concerne aussi un procédé très simple permettant d'estimer la variance du signal (énergie du bruit). Enfin, cette invention peut être avantageusement utilisée en association avec des dispositifs et procédés d'estimation de réponse impulsionnelle canal de type LMMSE, dans lesquels la variance est fournie au dispositif d'estimation sous forme d'un paramètre.

Abstract: An efficient chroma key-based coding technique for digital video with an optimized switching threshold. An optimized binary keying threshold (T) is provided for switching between a first image region (such as a background region) (B) and second image region (such as a foreground object) (A) video picture. The threshold optimizes a PSNR of a quantization error Q of a key color K. A chroma key technique is also provided for representing the shape of a video object, where the shape information (alpha plane) of a foreground object is embedded in the keyed output, so there is no need to carry an explicit alpha plane, or use alpha plane coding. The chroma key shape representation technique provides a smooth transition at the boundary (500, 505) between objects without the need for special switching patterns, such as a general gray scale shape coding tool, or post-processing, e.g., using feathering filters.

Abstract: A method and system for discovering the location of a storage router (16, 18), and therefore the attached storage devices (30, 70), in a fibre channel network (10) using the storage router's fully qualified domain name to determine the storage router's arbitrated loop physical address (AL PA). A domain name query is sent from a host computer (14) over the network to a domain name server (20) to determine an IP address for the storage router (16, 18). The domain name server (20) replies with the storage router IP address. The host computer (14) then sends an address resolution protocol request containing the IP address over the network to determine a node name for the storage router (16, 18). The storage router (16, 18) replies with its node name. The host computer (14) then sends an FCP request containing the storage router's node name over the network to determine AL PA of the storage router (16, 18). The storage router (16, 18) replies with its AL PA. The host computer (14) can use a variety of standard inquiries to discover storage devices (30, 72) attached to the storage router (16, 18).

Abstract: There has been explained a composite, particulate feed for fish larvae or fry, and larvae of other aquatic organisms. This dry feed, so-called formulated feed, shall be of such a high quality and condition and otherwise exhibit such properties as to make it suitable for replacing live feed (for example Artemia Salinas), which is very expensive and which may be hard to obtain, at least periodically, and which has a generally very low percentage of hatching (Artemia Salinas) some years. To this end a feed according to the invention excels in that the feed particles consist of a matrix containing water-insoluble nutrients, phospholipids/biomembranes being embedded in said particles, which biomembranes contain fat-soluble components and pack water-soluble nutrients. Also, there has been explained a method of manufacturing such feed, whereby a matrix material which contains water-insoluble nutrients, phospholipids/biomembranes containing fat-soluble and water-soluble nutrients, further nutrients and water is mixed together, comminuted in a nozzle or similar and then cross-linked in a suitable solution.

Abstract: The present invention provides a semiconductor integrated circuit
including a plurality of different primitive cells constituting a functional block,
characterized in that the semiconductor integrated circuit includes a bypass
capacitor electrically connected between a wire electrically connected to a power
source and a grounded wire in a specific primitive cell into which a periodically
varying signal is input, and the bypass capacitor is located adjacent to a gate
circuit to which the periodically varying signal is input, among a plurality of gate
circuits constituting the primitive cells. In accordance with the semiconductor
integrated circuit, an impedance of the bypass capacitor arranged in a primitive
cell is reduced in a high frequency band, and resultingly, a total of a resistance of a
wire electrically connected to a power source, in IC chip, an inductance in IC chip,
and an inductance of IC package is greater than an impedance of the bypass
capacitor in a high frequency band. This ensures reduction in leakage of a high
frequency current generated in IC, to outside of IC. As a result, it is possible to
suppress EMI noises generated in IC.

Abstract: By pushing down a shutter release operation member (9),
that is mounted on a front of a waterproof case of a waterproof
type lens-fitted photo film unit, a release lever (70) is caused
to rotate through a rotary shaft (71) that is put through a front
wall of the waterproof case. Thereby, the release lever
directly pushes an arresting member (59) through an opening

a shutter drive member (51) as having been arrested in a cocked
position by the arresting member (59), and thus causing a
shutter blade (45) to make an open-close movement. The
waterproof case consists of a pair of case members that are put

to each other by engagement. An elastic waterproof ring is
force-fitted in a gap of the joint between the case members.
The waterproof ring has a substantially semicircular sectional

Title: A method for reducing the noise in voice signals and a system and mobile telephone using the method.
Inventor: GUSTAFSSON HARALD
IPC: G10L15/20
Filed: 2002-02-25
Abstract: Methods and apparatus for providing speech enhancement in noise reduction systems include spectral subtraction algorithms using linear convolution, causal filtering and/or spectrum dependent exponential averaging of the spectral subtraction gain function. According to exemplary embodiments, low order spectrum estimates are developed which have less frequency resolution and reduced variance as compared to spectrum estimates in conventional spectral subtraction systems. The low order spectra are used to form a gain function having a desired low variance which in turn reduces musical tones in the spectral subtraction output signal. Advantageously, the gain function can be further smoothed across blocks using input spectrum dependent exponential averaging. Additionally, the low order of the gain function permits a phase to be added during interpolation so that the spectral subtraction gain filter is causal and prevents discontinuities between blocks.
