Abstract: An improvement for a filter system which distributes backwash fluid uniformly throughout a bed of granular media is disclosed. The filter system includes a distributor positioned beneath and supporting the media, with the distributor having a plurality of walls which define a primary horizontal conduit and a secondary horizontal conduit. At least one of the walls which define the conduits contains metering orifices that connect the primary conduit to the secondary conduit. The improvement includes at least one baffle positioned within the primary conduit to facilitate uniform flow of backwash fluid from the primary conduit through the metering orifices into the secondary conduit. The baffle may comprise flanges extending from the walls which define the primary conduit normal to a fluid flow direction in the conduit. Alternatively, the baffle may include posts positioned within the conduit. The baffle generally reduces flow velocity near the wall which contains the metering orifices to enhance distribution of backwash fluids from the primary conduit to the secondary conduit. The baffle is preferably located near an inlet for the primary conduit, which is the high energy portion of the conduit. The invention also includes tubular inserts which may be placed in the metering orifices to assist backwash fluid flow in making the 90 degree turn from the primary conduit into the metering orifices.

IPC: H04N1/41

Abstract: The present invention allows for decompression in either the forward or reverse directions. Such reversibility can be accomplished in one of two primary ways. First, a periodic marker can be placed (602) in the compressed data stream. Each marker contains information necessary to decode a block of the compressed data and possibly the location of the next marker. Thus, by retrieving (702) the markers in proper order and decompressing (703) the blocks, the decompression can be guided in either the forward or reverse direction. Another approach assumes that the compression method itself is periodic. Using this assumption, decompression (502) can start at any periodic block of compressed data. By simply stepping through the periodic blocks in the reverse order (503), the data can be decompressed in the reverse direction.

Abstract: A computer input device for use as a computer mouse or keyboard comprises a thin, insulating surface covering an array of electrodes. Such electrodes are arranged in a grid pattern and can be connected in columns and rows. Each column and row is connected to circuitry for measuring the capacitance seen by each column and row. The position of an object, such as a finger or handheld stylus, with respect to the array is determined from the centroid of such capacitance values, which is calculated in a microcontroller. For applications in which the input device is used as a mouse, the microcontroller forwards position change information to the computer. For applications in which the input device is used as a keyboard, the microcomputer identifies a key from the position of the touching object and forwards such key identity to the computer.

The timestamp is obtained from the local clock (104) and is associated with the PCR sample value. The digital computer determines a line of best fit to a set of values including the PCR sample value and the timestamp, and previously received PCR sample values and associated timestamps. The line of best fit represents a reconstructed system time clock. The digital computer determines a PCR jitter value for the PCR sample value by determining a distance between the line of best fit and the PCR sample value. The PCR jitter value may be displayed on the display unit (20), preferably in a histogram.
