Abstract: A system and method for variable-resolution image saving includes an image capturing member, a data saving member, and an image data processor. A first panoramic image data is captured by the image capturing member in high resolution. The image data is then analyzed and divided into target area and background area. The resolution of background area is lowered to reduce the size of image data. A second panoramic image is then formed with the target area in original high resolution and background area in lower resolution. In this way, memory size and time required for storing and transmitting the second panoramic image data are greatly reduced without loosing important features of the target area.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for performing transmission data rate allocation in a high speed wireless communications network. A macro control loop with the network of base stations on one side and all the subscriber stations on the other side. Subscriber station selects a rate based on the amount of data queued for transmission (100). Adjusts this rate based on the available power headroom of the subscriber station (102). This adjusted transmission rate is then adjusted again to account for protection of base stations in the candidate set of the subscriber station (104). This rate is then adjusted in accordance with busy tone signals indicative of the loading conditions of active set base stations of the subscriber station (108). The base stations react to these action by refreshing measurements of their instantaneous traffic load and providing feedback in the form of soft busy tones. The algorithm is named Closed Loop Resource Allocation.

Title: Apparatus for measuring the velocity of a fluid flow
Inventor: WEILGUNY GUENTER
IPC: G01F1/86
Filed: 2007-02-19
Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for measuring the velocity of a fluid flow, wherein electrical charge carriers are emitted into the fluid flow (1, 11, 21) from an emitter electrode (3, 13, 23, 33), and wherein an electrical signal caused by this is measured at a sensor electrode (4, 14, 24, 34). The projection of the envelope of the cross-sectional area of that part of the sensor electrode which projects into the fluid flow into the cross-sectional plane of the fluid flow is small in comparison with the cross-sectional area of the fluid flow at this point, if present at all. The measured current (ls) of the sensor electrode (4, 14, 24, 34) is used to serve as a characterizing feature of the velocity of the fluid flow in accordance with a defined allocation function. The measurement method has virtually no delay and can be used in a high temperature and velocity range.

Abstract: A video encoder using inter-frame differential coding has a store (3) for containing a plurality of reference pictures. For each incoming picture it chooses one (or more) of the stored reference pictures to use. Control means (10) select which locally decoded pictures are to be entered into, and removed from, so that the store always contains at least one relatively older picture that lies within a defined time window and at least one relatively younger picture that is more recent than the time window. When it receives an error message from a receiver, it switches the coder from its normal a state (in which it is allowed to choose any picture as predictor) into a state in which it is permitted to choose only a said relatively older picture for prediction. The beginning of the time window is preferably set according to the estimated (or observed) round trip time between the encoder and decoder such that at least one of the relatively older pictures always predated the error message.
