Title: Fluid shock absorber
Inventor: SAKAI SHIZUKA
IPC: F16F7/09
Filed: 2009-02-13
Abstract: A shock absorber (D1) comprises a ring-shaped seal member (3) supported by a cylinder (1) so as to cause a tip to contact the piston rod (2) resiliently. A ring-shaped actuator (4a) exerts an inward force on the outer circumference of the seal member (3). The actuator (4a) is constituted by a polymer material that varies its diameter upon impression of a direct-current voltage. By controlling the direct-current voltage depending on the relative displacement speed between the piston rod (2) and the cylinder (1), the frictional resistance which the seal member (3) exerts on the piston rod (2) is kept large when the relative displacement speed is in an extremely low operation speed region, and is decreased as the actuator (4) decreases the inward force when the relative displacement speed increases above the extremely low operation speed region.

Abstract: A technique for generating a Single-Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) signal based on a Constant Amplitude Zero Auto-Correlation (CAZAC) sequence is disclosed. A method embodiment of this technique comprises generating a frequency domain representation of the CAZAC sequence by providing an analytical representation of the CAZAC sequence in the frequency domain with an integer phase term and calculating the integer phase term in a recursive manner for each of a plurality of frequency domain samples of the CAZAC sequence. The resulting frequency domain representation of the CAZAC sequence is then mapped to a predetermined frequency location before being transformed into the time domain to obtain a time domain representation of the SC-FDMA signal. The SC-FDMA signal may be a random access signal for transmission on a Physical Random Access Channel (PRACH).

Abstract: Provided is a method and apparatus for encoding and decoding an enhancement layer to reduce quantization error in a G.71 codec. Exponent indices of additional mantissa information of each samples are calculated based upon exponent information of each samples in a frame. A process of allocating 1 bit to each sample with a current exponent index is repeated, the exponent index starting from the maximum value while decreasing by 1 at every repetition until the total number of bits allocated to the samples is equal to the total number of available bits in the frame. And the most significant bits, as many as the number of bits allocated to each sample, are extracted from the additional mantissa information of each samples in the frame.
