Date Apr. 6, 1989.A video signal processor as for generating a picture-in-picture signal, generates respective analog luminance components and first and second analog chrominance components. In order to reduce the system hardware and processing speed, multiplexing circuitry subsamples the luminance and chrominance components on a field basis to provide alternating fields of only luminance and only chrominance signal. The multiplexing circuitry further subsamples the chrominance components by providing groups of horizontal lines of only the first chrominance component alternating with groups of horizontal lines of only the second chrominance component.

Abstract: In a process for lambda-value determination, the voltages of the charged and uncharged lambda probe are determined and the internal resistance of the probe is calculated from these values using the known value of the load resistance. The value of the internal resistance and the value of the voltage of the probe in the uncharged state serve as input values for a characteristic field in which lambda-values dependent on values of the internal resistance and the voltage of the probe in the uncharged state are placed. This process for lambda-value determination has the advantage that lambda-values can be measured with high accuracy even in the strongly temperature-dependent and rich zone of a probe, for example a Nernst-type probe. The values to obtained can be displayed by a measuring instrument or used to regulate the exhaust gases from an engine, for example during run-up or at full load.

Abstract: The organic-mineral fertiliser according to the invention is characterised by a combination which consists of a mixture of 92 % by weight of rough-ground castor and 8 % by weight of twice-purified potassium sulphate (K2SO4). The rough-ground castor contains 75.0 to 82.0 % by weight of organic substance, 5.0 to 6.0 % by weight of total nitrogen (N), 2.0 to 2.5 % by weight of total phosphate (P2O5), 1.0 to 1.5 % by weight of total potassium oxide (K2O), 0.7 to 0.85 % by weight of magnesium oxide (MgO), and further 10.0 to 12.0 % by weight of water and about 105 mg/kg of trace elements. The fertiliser according to the invention has especially proved best-suited for turf formation and thorough rooting of soils in relatively high, poor mountain locations damaged by erosion, weathering or skiing. Owing to the fact that the fertiliser can now be produced in pellet form of 2.5 mm diameter, it can be incorporated into the soil even in a strong wind, so that, compared to before, a more intensive fertilisation of the soil is possible. <IMAGE>

Title: Method of making metal matrix composites

Filed: 1989-01-10
Granted: 1993-09-15
Abstract: An aluminum metal matrix composite comprises an aluminum metal matrix embedding a second filler (2), such as a ceramic second filler, and is formed by contacting, for example, a molten aluminum metal (20) with a permeable mass of second filler (22) within a ceramic impervious mold (12) formed by growing a polycrystalline oxidation reaction product into a first filler. By hermetically sealing the second filler (22) within the mold (12) with a body of molten aluminum metal (20), the latter spontaneously infiltrates the mass of second filler (22) at moderate temperatures, e.g. about 900 DEG C, without need of any other infiltration expedients. The molten mass containing the infiltrated ceramic filler is solidified to provide the metal matrix composite which may be recovered from the mold (12). Optionally, the solidification is carried out under bonding conditions including maintaining the solidifying material in direct contact with the ceramic mold, to provide the metal matrix composite joined to the mold, or a part thereof, as a structural component.

Date Dec. 14, 1989.Several encoders perform a local decoding of a speech signal and extract excitation information and vocal tract information from a speech signal for an encoding operation. The transmission rate ratio between the excitation information and the vocal tract information are different for each encoder. An evaluation/selection unit evaluates the quality of decoded signals subjected to a local decoding in each of the encoders, determines the most suitable encoders from among the several encoders based on the result of the evaluation, and selects the most suitable encoder, thereby outputting the selection result as selection information. The decoder decodes a speech signal based on selection information, vocal tract information and excitation information. The evaluation/selection unit selects the output from the encoder in which the quality of a locally decoded signal is the most preferable. When vocal tract information changes little, the vocal tract information is not output, thereby allowing for increased quality of information. As much of the surplus of unused vocal tract information as possible is assigned to a residual signal. Thus, the quality of a decoded speech signal is improved.
