Abstract: In high speed applications, the decoder is the limiting factor for the maximum baudrate in the FW link. In applications, however, where not all frames need to be processed at all destinations, quite some decoder time can be saved, if the receiver 'knows' in advance (i.e. before decoding) the destination of a frame, simply by ignoring the unwanted frames.  A satellite broadcasting system is described using a signal having up to three fields: a frame tag field for frame tagging to define one of a plurality of destination groups, a modcode field for defining one of a plurality of modulation codes and a type field for defining whether pilot signals are used or not.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for monitoring errors in undercarriage components of rail vehicles, having at least one acceleration sensor which works with an evaluation unit. At least one acceleration sensor is arranged on the undercarriage of the rail vehicle in such a manner that its direction of detection has at least one component parallel to the vertical axis (z-direction) of the rail vehicle. The invention proposes that the acceleration sensor is constructed in such a manner that it delivers a measuring signal which contains the signal portion corresponding to a ground acceleration, or represents a signal corresponding to a ground acceleration, and that the evaluation unit has a routine for testing functions of the acceleration sensor, the routine controlling an error signal if the measuring signal delivered by the acceleration sensor contains no signal portion corresponding to a ground acceleration. The routine also suppresses the error signal if this is not the case.

Abstract: What is described is a process for producing water-absorbing resins, in which a) acrylic acid is prepared at an acrylic acid production site, b) the acrylic acid prepared is dissolved in water at the acrylic acid production site to obtain an aqueous acrylic acid solution, c) the aqueous acrylic acid solution is fed into a pipeline at the acrylic acid production site and passed through the pipeline to an acrylic acid processing site and d) the aqueous acrylic acid solution is subjected to a free-radical polymerization at the acrylic acid processing site. The process ensures safe transport of the highly reactive acrylic acid. Endangerment as a result of premature polymerization, as in the case of glacial acrylic acid, is ruled out, since the acrylic acid is “diluted” by the aqueous solvent and the specific heat capacity and the evaporation enthalpy of the water limit the maximum temperature rise. The amount of polymerization inhibitors used be reduced or it is possible to entirely dispense with polymerization inhibitors. Temperature control of vessels and pipelines within which the aqueous acrylic acid solution is conducted can be dispensed with because the solidification point of the aqueous acrylic acid solution is lower than that of anhydrous acrylic acid.

Abstract: A method for attenuating multiple reflections in seismic signals includes coherency filtering the seismic signals. The seismic signals are low pass filtered and high pass filtered seismic signals at a frequency selected such that substantially only multiple reflections exist in the seismic signals above the frequency. A mask is generated having unity value where the high pass filtered signal amplitude exceeds a selected threshold. The mask has unity zero value for all other filtered signals. The mask value is multiplied by the low pass filtered signals. The multiplied signals are added to the high pass filtered signals and a coherency filter is applied to remove remaining primary energy to generate a model of the multiple reflections. The multiple reflection model is subtracted from the coherency filtered seismic signals.
