Patent EP-0376393-A1 (EP)
Inventor: COLOMBO SANDRO GIOVANNI
IPC: H04N9/797
Filed: 1989-12-20
Abstract: In a receiver for a high-definition television system a complicated motion compensated interpolation circuit for the chrominance can be dispensed with; in the event of small motions the interferences caused thereby are so small as to be disregarded, in the event of larger motions disturbing differences between the motion compensated luminance and the non-motion compensated chrominance can be prevented by switching to a processing operation which provides a lower spatial resolution for the chrominance. Herein, use is made of the fact that the eye is less sensitive to short-comings in (the resolution of) the chrominance signal than for short-comings in (the resolution of) the luminance signal. To render such a receiver possible, the television signal must be adequately processed at the transmitter end.

Title: High definition b-mac television signal transmission system.
Inventor: LUCAS KEITH
IPC: H04N7/083
Filed: 1989-10-10
Abstract: A method for encoding a high definition television signal comprising a first frequency spectrum portion for standard resolution and a second high frequency spectrum portion for high resolution consistent with the B-MAC composite signal format comprises the steps or orthogonally sampling the high definition signal, diagonally filtering diagonal resolution information, and decimating alternate samples of alternate lines for folding in high frequency horizontal resolution information by means of a skew-symmetric low-pass filter. A method at a standard television resolution receiver for decoding the high-definition television signal uses a simple low pass filter to recover the baseband television spectrum at standard television resolution. A method at a high-definition television receiver comprises the steps of unfolding the high frequency horizontal resolution information and thereafter line doubling the unfolded high frequency resolution informtion to improve vertical resolution of the high-definition television signal. Thus, the encoding method is compatible for reception at either a standard resolution or high-definition television receiver.

Abstract: A modular housing assembly is provided for two incompatible circuits, for example an RF circuit and a digital circuit, mounted on the same printed circuit board. The housing assembly has a base member and a cover member which are meshed to form two double walled compartments separated by a double conducting wall. The circuit board has at least one bridge physically and electrically connecting the two circuits on the board which bridges pass through corresponding channels in the separating wall and each contain a matrix of plated through holes which operate to extend the wall through the bridge. Interconnecting wiring is woven through the holes to pass desired signals. Filters are provided between the interconnecting wiring and each circuit to eliminate conductive interference. Conductive gaskets are provided at all junctions of the separating wall with a housing member or with a circuit board to further reduce radiation leakage between the circuits.

Abstract: In order that a tubular dowel 1 can be anchored in a predrilled hole 12 in masonry 13 or a constructional body, in particular consisting of hard and/or heavy concrete, with the formation of an undercut, also while achieving withdrawal values up to 10,000 N or more, if the depth of the predrilled hole exceeds the dowel length, in this case a tubular dowel 1 is used which consists of a metal sleeve 2 having a broadened head part 3, the cross-sectional shape of which metal sleeve 2 can be varied in a permanent manner. Accommodated in the sleeve 2 are a wedge piece 4, which has a wedge surface inclined at an acute angle with respect to the sleeve longitudinal axis, and an expansion body 5, which is allocated to the wedge surface of this wedge piece 4. The wedge piece 4 forms an anvil-like counter-bearing for the expansion body 5, and a rod-like driver 6 for the expansion body 5 is inserted into the sleeve 2 from the head end. The expansion body 5 can be deflected by axial forces acting from the outside on the driver 6 along the wedge surface of the wedge piece 4 laterally from the sleeve longitudinal axis against the sleeve walls. The expansion body 5 can be anchored between the sleeve walls and the wedge piece 4 by plastic deformation of the sleeve walls.
