Patent EP-0584684-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04N7/00
Filed: 1993-08-14
Abstract: A colour television transmission system called PALplus is known in which two different signal processing methods for separating chrominance and luminance components exist within one standard, particularly the PAL standard. In this arrangement, status bits are generated in the transmitting device which control the corresponding switch-over between the signal processing methods in the decoder in the receiver. This switch-over functions as long as the incoming video signal has relatively little time base fluctuations. If the tolerance range of the time base fluctuation is exceeded, for example when the PALplus signal with the corresponding status bits is recorded on a conventional video recorder, the time base fluctuations introduced by the video recorder lead to severe picture disturbances, particularly to fluctuations in the colour saturation in the colour television receiver. To prevent the picture disturbances, an evaluating circuit which measures time base fluctuations in the incoming synchronisation signal is provided in addition to the device for evaluating the received status bits. Device, evaluating circuit and control device are used for checking whether the control signal is received and whether the time base fluctuations are within a predeterminable tolerance interval. The switching-over of the signal processing method of the decoder is carried out in dependence on this result. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A new speaker verification method, termed Mixture Decomposition
Discrimination, (MDD) and a new apparatus for using MDD are presented. MDD
takes mixture component score information from a speaker independent recognizer
and transmits this information while it is still decomposed as a mixture of component
scores that indicate the response of the states of the HMM before this information is
combined into a single speaker independent recognizer parameter. MDD can be very
effective in improving the performance of existing verification methods based on
speaker dependent HMMs with cohort normalization because the errors of the two
speaker verification methods are very uncorrelated statistically. Experimental results
have shown that when MDD is incorporated into a system that also uses speaker
dependent HMMs, the resulting hybrid system has its average equal error rate reduced
by 46% compared to cohort normalized speaker independent HMM. MDD is used
with a speaker dependent linear discriminator which has relatively low computational
and storage requirements. Thus, the increased performance of a hybrid
MDD/CNHMM system may be achieved with minimal increase in computational and
data storage assets.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for catheter
location mapping, and related procedures. Three
substantially orthogonal alternating signals are applied
through the patient, directed substantially toward the
area of interest to be mapped, such as patient's heart.
The currents are preferably constant current pulses, of
a frequency and magnitude to avoid disruption with ECG
recordings. A catheter is equipped with at least a
measuring electrode, which for cardiac procedures is
positioned at various locations either against the
patient's heart wall, or within a coronary vein or
artery. A voltage is sensed between the catheter tip and
a reference electrode, preferably a surface electrode on
the patient, which voltage signal has components
corresponding to the three orthogonal applied current
signals. Three processing channels are used to separate
out the three components as x, y and z signals, from
which calculations are made for determination of the
three-dimensional location of the catheter tip within
the body. An easy calibration procedure, which can be
performed separately or during the mapping, is used to
calibrate the system and provide the correlations
between respective x, y and z sense signals and
dimensional locations. The procedure is particularly
applicable for catheter mapping prior to ablation, and
for repositioning the catheter tip at precise locations
for the desired ablations. The procedure is also
applicable for other techniques where position must be
remembered and re-found with accuracy, such as in
mapping coronary stenosis and/or placing stents.
Although the invention provides the greatest benefit in
3-dimensional applications, it is also useful for one
and two dimensional applications.

Abstract: A method of preventing the inserting of a wrong
flowmeter tube into an anesthesia machine comprises the
steps of forming a selected number of longitudinal ridges
at selected places on the inside surface of an upper
portion of a flowmeter tube, attempting to insert the upper
end portion into a socket pin mounted on the housing of a
anesthesia machine, seating the tube on the socket pin if
the socket pin exterior surface has grooves corresponding
to the number and placement of ridges on the flowmeter
tube, and rejecting the tube by the socket pin if the
socket pin exterior surface does not have grooves
corresponding to the number and placement of the ridges on
the flowmeter tube, since the lack of said correspondences
indicates that the tube is the wrong tube for the socket
pin. A flowmeter measuring tube for medical applications
such as anesthesia machines has a selected number of ridges
extending inwardly from the inside surface of the flowmeter
tube from an upper end portion, said number of ridges being
adapted to slide into a like number and position of grooves
in a socket pin of a housing of an anesthesia machine for
holding the tube in place, whereby the ridges of the
flowmeter tube and the grooves of the socket pin provide a
safety feature that prevents the insertion of the wrong
tube into the socket pin.

Abstract: An air/fuel ratio sensor is controlled such that the oxygen
concentration of the measurement gas can be detected from a pump
current substantially instantaneously after a heater turns on.
In the air/fuel ratio sensor an oxygen pumping cell and an oxygen
concentration measuring cell are each formed of a solid
electrolytic layer interposed between a pair of porous electrodes.
One of the electrodes of each cell defines a measurement gas
chamber in which the diffusion of the measurement gas is
controlled. After a micro current is supplied to the other
electrode of the oxygen concentration measuring cell for a
predetermined period of time, thereby forming an internal
reference oxygen source, the supply of the micro current is
stopped and at the same time a pump current in the oxygen
pumping cell starts to be controlled until the interelectrode
voltage of the oxygen concentration measuring cell reaches a
target voltage. After the air/fuel ratio sensor is activated, the
supply of the micro current is restarted.

Abstract: At the use of interactive data services on the packet
based Internet, the data carrier is only utilized at times.
Between the data transmissions the user makes for instance
pauses to take care of and evaluate the information which
he/she has collected from the database, at which the
carrier is unutilized. For certain services and users the
circuit switched and comparatively expensive service which
GSM offers today is not cost optimal in relation to the
active utilization. Either does the user pay for the time
his/her communication is silent, or he/she sets up and
disconnects the transmission according to his/her need. The
latter is very time-consuming because the user for instance
has to authenticate himself/herself each time towards
his/her server. The invention solves this by providing a
completely digital connection between the mobile unit and
the server in question. The mobile user sets up a session
towards the server in known way by calling and
authenticating himself/herself by means of password and
user identity. This session is active until the mobile user
by a special procedure breaks the session or,
alternatively, by one with the system cooperating time
interval unit, in form of for instance a timer, expires.
The session will after that be superior to a number of
connections and disconnections on the GSM-channel.

transmission system requirements of having more
pumping light sources for system upgrade can be
accommodated readily. By packaging portions
containing amplification media, an optical amplifier
