Abstract: The present invention relates to an improvement in
filtering apparatus including a filter device externally
hitched on a wall surface of a aquarium for breeding aquarium
fishes. In the outside-type filtering apparatus including a
filter device (F) and detachably supported in an externally
hitched manner on a wall surface of a aquarium (V), and a water
pump (P) for pumping water stored in the aquarium (V), the filter
device (F) is formed so that the water pumped from the water
pump (P) is divided into a first flow which is returned into
the aquarium (V) as remaining unfiltered, and a second flow
which is filtered through a filter element and then returned
into the aquarium (V) in dependence on a siphon effect. Thus,
it is possible to enhance the filtering action provided by the
filter element of the filter device and the organically
purifying function provided by aerobic microorganisms, and to
suppress the clogging of the filter element to reduce the
maintenance frequency of the filter element.

Abstract: An equalizer for a multi carrier signal for carrying out equalization adapted to each
carrier or group of carriers, Fourier transforms the multi carrier signal, and obtains
difference terms of the multi carrier signal. Both are input to an adaptive filter, to
output equalized signals, wherein decimation is applied to at least some of the
difference terms input to the filter. This is notable for enabling the complexity to be
reduced for a given performance level. In particular since only non-zero filter taps
need to be stored and updated, coefficient memory and coefficient calculation capacity
can be reduced. Another way to reduce complexity involves measuring noise for at
least some of the carriers, and dynamically adapting the size of the filter on a per
carrier basis according to global optimizion euristic algorithms which adapt this filter
size based on the comparison between this noise and an optimal performance figure
achieved in a previous ISI-ICI free measurement phase.
