Abstract: A sealing strip (2) of flexible material is mounted adjacent a slidably movable window pane (5) in a window opening (3) of a motor vehicle. The sealing lip (2) has a sealing zone (7,8) with a sealing surface for making sealing and sliding contact with the window pane (5). The area of the sealing zone (7,8) is interrupted by a wiper lip (6) which extends outwardly into wiping contact with the window pane (5) and can flex in contact with the sliding movement of the window pane (5). A cavity (9) positioned immediately behind the wiper blade (6) also enables the wiper lip (6) to move in a direction perpendicular to the sliding movement of the window pane (5), thus enabling the wiper lip (6) to accommodate tolerances in the horizontal position of the window pane (5).

Abstract: Alginate beads are employed as a site specific oral delivery system for cationic therapeutic agents, such as TGF-β₁, designed to target the agents to the luminal side of the small intestine. Improved delivery of bioactive material is obtained by: 1) incorporating selected polyanions in the alginate beads to shield the cationic therapeutic agent from interaction with alginate and/or 2) acid treating alginate beads containing the therapeutic agents to reduce the molecular weight of alginate and its interaction with the agents. Enhanced bioactivity of therapeutic agents released from the alginate is attributed to the ability of polyacrylic acid to shield the agents from interaction with lower molecular fragments of acid treated alginate.

Abstract: A quantization estimating method for data compression comprises: a first step of making a calculation of code length for each DCT period per quantizer; a second step of successively executing, per quantizer, cumulative operations of the code lengths for the small blocks which consist of a plurality of DCTs and determining a quantizer to be commonly used for the large block which consists of N small blocks in the range where no overflow takes place; a third step of executing an operation of total code length at the time when the quantization level of the quantizer determined at the second step is replaced, per small block, with a higher quantization level, and determining, for each small block, each optimum quantizer which can be used in the range where no overflow takes place; and a fourth step of selecting each optimum quantizer for each small block. At the second step, the operation results are stored, per small block, as the intermediate and final results of cumulative operations of code lengths, the results being stored in the form of N stairs, and a cumulative operation at the third step is executed with the use of such intermediate and final results. At the third step, the total code length can be calculated with no cumulative operations of code length again executed one by one for each small block.

Abstract: A compressed audio/video, A/V, receiver provides A/V component timing reference signals (208,212,214,220,222) (PTS's) coincident with reproduction of associated decompressed component signals. Synchronization apparatus generates a function of the difference (217-219) of occurring component audio and video PTS's. This function, which is indicative of relative audio and video synchronization, is compared with a predetermined threshold value (225), and a mute control signal is generated when the threshold is exceeded. Muting circuitry (229), responsive to the control signal disables audio reproduction when the reproduced audio and video component signal timing deviate from mutual synchronization.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing the unwanted sideways motion of an airplane by reducing the lateral side loads and upsets caused by atmospheric turbulence and gusts is disclosed. A rudder modification command that causes the rudder command of the airplane to be changed in a manner that relieves the net force across the vertical stabilizer of the airplane caused by atmospheric turbulence and gusts is produced. More specifically, the pressure differential across opposite sides of the vertical stabilizer is measured and used to produce a rudder deflection value that is roll rate and yaw rate compensated. The compensated deflection value is high-pass filtered with a corner frequency that is twenty-five percent (25%) of the Dutch roll frequency of the airplane. The result is a first rudder deflection value that is subtractively combined with a second rudder deflection value. The second rudder deflection value is derived by gain adjusting and low-pass filtering the inertial sideslip angle rate value produced by the airplane's yaw damper. The low-pass filter has a corner frequency that is also twenty-five percent (25%) of the Dutch roll frequency of the airplane. The combined rudder deflection value is modified by a steady sideslip gain value and filtered by a gain shaping filter. The gain shaping filter increases the gain above the Dutch roll frequency of the airplane. The resultant rudder modification command is subtractively combined with the yaw damper rudder command to produce a rudder command. Preferably, a flow separation monitor is included to prevent the rudder modification command from producing a rudder command that exceeds allowable structural limits. Also, preferably, the rudder modification command is used to produce a lateral control command that is used to suppress rigid body roll response and improve handling qualities by gain adjusting and low-pass filtering the rudder modification command.

Abstract: In an apparatus of digitally recording and reproducing video signals, when video signal data in one image frame is divided into a multiple-number of parts (N-parts) by dividing the image frame into N-divided rectangular regions and the N-parts of data are recorded on respective N tracks, each rectangular region is divided into blocks each having a multiple number of pixels and the thus generated blocks is subjected to a bit reduction coding operation. In recording the blocks, each of blocks are recorded onto a corresponding track in such a sequence that the blocks are scanned in a reciprocating manner along short-side directions of the rectangular region on the image frame. When the data is reproduced in a varied speed playback mode, the data are modified by every short-side row of blocks to thereby provide a high-quality playback picture at the varied speed.

Abstract: A swept synthesizer signal source provides a digital synchronization signal for accurate internal synchronization of events and for external synchronization of data taking and other operations to predetermined frequencies generated by an oscillator during a sweep. The digital synchronization signal includes a predetermined number of digital pulses, regardless of the sweep time. A ramp voltage which controls the oscillator is corrected during a calibration period to sweep between predetermined limits, thereby insuring that the ramp voltage is synchronized to the digital synchronization signal. The slope of the frequency versus time sweep is also corrected to further improve accuracy. A power level correction technique insures precision power leveling regardless of the sweep range. A table of correction/frequency pairs is entered into the instrument, and an interpolation algorithm is employed to determine corrections at frequencies corresponding to each synchronization pulse. The source can be used in a network analyzer system wherein the synchronization pulses are provided to a receiver to trigger data taking. Two or more sources can be interconnected to provide synchronized sweeps.

Abstract: Transmission of a first message over a local area network is delayed by a delay value. The delay value is calculated based on a backoff value in a backoff counter (32) and a generated random number. Transmission of the first message is deferred when another node on the local area network begins transmission of another message while transmission of the first message is being delayed for the delay value. The backoff value in the backoff counter (32) is incremented when the transmission of the first message is deferred. The backoff value in the backoff counter (32) is incremented when transmission of the first message collides with transmission of another message by another node on the local area network. The backoff value in the backoff counter (32) is decremented when the first message is transmitted without being deferred and without colliding with transmission of another message.
