Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically optimizing the fidelity of a speech signal received from a wireless telephony device and transmitted through a packet-switched network. In an exemplary embodiment, at least one Quality of Speech (QoS) transmission characteristic is determined for a packet-switched network intermediate to the a first Media Gateway (MGW) and a second MGW; the fidelity of speech transmitted through the packet-switched network being a function of the QoS transmission characteristic. A speech codec is dynamically-selected as a function of the QoS transmission characteristic of the packet-switched network. The speech signal is encoded into speech data using the dynamically-selected speech codec, and transmitted through the packet-switched network from the first MGW to the second MGW. The second MGW decodes the speech data using the dynamically-selected speech codec.

Abstract: MOS Cascode amplifier circuits are subject to long-term or instantaneous changes (degradation) of performance characteristics by excess substrate currents. These currents can be generated in the grounded source transistor of the cascode connected output transistors during peak excursions of drain-source voltage across the grounded source transistor when the output voltage of the MOS Cascode amplifier circuit is at a maximum. An improved MOS Cascode amplifier circuit arrangement includes a voltage limiting bias circuit arrangement of additional transistors. The bias circuit arrangement acts as a series voltage-limiting device between the MOS Cascode amplifier circuit output node and the drain node of the upper-most cascode connected transistors when the MOS Cascode amplifier circuit output voltage is at its maximum value. An embodiment of the improved MOS Cascode amplifier circuit arrangement is arranged to limit the drain-source voltage excursion peak on the sensitive cascode transistor to a value below a pre-selected critical voltage, Vcrit. Vcrit is defined as the drain-source voltage value for the sensitive cascode transistor for which the instantaneous and/or cumulative substrate current caused by peak drain-source voltage excursions greater than Vcrit would instantaneously or cumulatively degrade the transistor's sensitive electrical parameters to an extent that would degrade (an) amplifier performance characteristic(s) to an appreciable degree. The additional transistors of one embodiment of the bias circuit arrangement are connected by internal adjacent source-drain nodes as a sequential chain with gates biased at respective fixed voltages. One external drain node of the chain connects to the output node of the MOS cascode amplifier and one external source node of the chain connects to drain of the uppermost cascode connected transistors. The number of additional transistors and the fixed bias gate voltages are selected to limit the peak drain-source voltage excursion on the sensitive transistor under selected operating conditions.

Abstract: The invention refers to a method of aseptically storing a bulk sterile product in stationary storing tanks or containers designed for transportation by road, fluvial and marine systems, the method comprising the steps of: cleaning the inner area of a container by applying chemical cleaning agents; filling the cleaned container (10) completely with clean, potable water, while expelling all the air contained therein; sealing and pressurizing the container (10) with an inert gas in order to expel the water and to create a pressurized inert gas atmosphere within the container; applying a liquid sterilizing agent to all inner surfaces of the container (10); removing said liquid sterilizing agent while maintaining the pressurized inert gas atmosphere; feeding the bulk sterile product into container and maintaining said container (10) sealed with an internal pressurized inert gas atmosphere. In a variant of the above method, the sterilization of the container is carried out just after the cleaning step, then the liquid sterilizing agent is drained and the container is filled with a sterile liquid to expel all the air contained in it. After-wards, the container is sealed and pressurized with inert gas whereby the sterile liquid is expelled from the container so that the latter can receive the bulk sterile product to be stored.
