Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système permettant de générer un ou plusieurs coefficients de mélange pour mélanger en réduction un signal d'entrée multicanal doté d'une pluralité de canaux d'entrée avec un signal de sortie doté d'une pluralité de canaux de sortie. Les coefficients de mélange peuvent être générés en réponse à une comparaison d'énergie entre le signal mélangé en réduction (sortie) et le signal d'entrée dans le mélangeur abaisseur, de sorte que l'énergie et le sens prévu du signal d'entrée sont sensiblement préservés dans le signal de sortie. En outre ou dans un autre mode de réalisation, la génération d'un coefficient de mélange peut préserver le sens prévu d'un signal d'entré reçu, par exemple, au niveau d'un canal ambiance d'entrée, dans au moins un canal de sortie du signal de sortie. Les valeurs de coefficient de mélange peuvent être générées dans un environnement de mélangeur abaisseur d'essai. En outre, un ou plusieurs coefficients de mélange peuvent être générés par extraction de valeurs de coefficient de mélange prédéterminées. En outre ou dans un autre mode de réalisation, un ou plusieurs coefficients de mélange peuvent être générés en réponse à l'énergie d'entrée d'une pluralité de canaux d'entrée.

Title: Maximisation de la puissance et des rendements spectraux destinee a des modulations en couches et classiques
Inventor: CHEN ERNEST C
IPC: H04L27/34
Filed: 2003-10-16
Abstract: L'invention concerne des procédés et des appareils permettant de maximiser la puissance et les rendements spectraux dans un système de communication sans fil. Les procédés et appareils selon l'invention sont spécialement utiles pour des applications de modulation en couches en raison des niveaux de puissance relativement élevés nécessaires à de telles applications. Un signal de modulation en couches comprend des signaux des couches supérieure et inférieure interférant l'un avec l'autre dans la même bande de fréquences, de manière que le signal de la couche supérieure puisse être démodulé directement à partir du signal de modulation en couches et que le signal de la couche inférieure puisse être démodulé après soustraction du signal de la première couche du signal de modulation en couches. Les procédés et appareils selon l'invention appliquent dans un signal de communication un ou plusieurs schémas de signaux parmi les quatre suivants : variation du rendement du symbole (plutôt que celui du code), réduction ou élimination de la bande de garde, réduction de la largeur de bande du signal excédentaire et mise en oeuvre d'une modulation en couches dans la bande de garde du signal existant.

Inventor: NOLAN JOHN MATTHEW
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 2003-12-12
Abstract: A method is disclosed for achieving synchronization in an array of semi-synchronous devices. A processor array has an array of processor elements, wherein each of said processor elements comprises a cycle counter, and a master processor element is able to transmit control command signals to each of the other processor elements. Each processor element is such that, on receipt of a control command signal, it acts on that signal only when its cycle counter reaches a predetermined value, and the master processor element is such that it transmits control command signals only when its cycle counter takes a value which is within a predetermined range, or "safe window". By appropriate setting of the "safe window", it can be guaranteed that, when the master processor element transmits a control command signal to each of the other processor elements, those command control signals are acted upon at corresponding times within the other processor elements.

Title: Systeme et procede pour developper une largeur d'impulsions
Inventor: BARTH SEVERIN
IPC: G11C11/417
Filed: 2003-11-04
Abstract: L'invention concerne un circuit (10) et un procédé pour développer la largeur d'impulsion d'un signal (20) sur la base d'une largeur d'impulsion d'un signal d'entrée (18). Un circuit (10) produit un retard correspondant à la largeur d'impulsion du signal d'entrée (18) à la fois pour un signal de translation (SHIFT) et pour un signal de sortie (OUT), lesquels sont hors phase l'un avec l'autre. Le retard est produit, lorsqu'un condensateur (16) applique une tension à deux transistors de commande à la fois dans les blocs de translation (12) et de sortie (14), ce qui réduit la commande de circuit dans lesdits transistors et produit un retard dans le bord descendant des signaux, de sorte que la largeur d'impulsion du signal de translation (52) est réduite et la largeur d'impulsion du signal de sortie (20) est augmentée. Le condensateur (16) est chargé par un transistor (22) activé par le signal de décalage (52). Le système de doublage des impulsions est autoconvergeant : lorsque la largeur d'impulsion du signal de translation (52) est zéro, la largeur d'impulsions du signal de sortie (20) est doublée, et le niveau de charge du condensateur (16) est fixe, dès lors qu'il n'est plus chargé par le transistor (22) commandé par le signal de décalage. Le circuit (10) peut être modifié, de sorte que la largeur d'impulsion du signal de sortie (20) est un facteur connu de multiplication plus large que la largeur d'impulsion d'un signal d'entrée (18).

Abstract: L'invention concerne une méthode de gestion de données permettant d'évaluer l'équilibre autonome d'un patient, le risque de décès, et la réponse d'un patient à une thérapie dans les termes de ces évaluations. Cette méthode décrit un procédé consistant à traduire un ensemble de « variables brutes » en une ou plusieurs nouvelles variables, et à les définir sous forme d'un indice de prédiction de la mortalité permettant de quantifier le contrôle réflexe du système cardiovasculaire du patient et son risque de décès. Les variables traduites représentent la chimioréceptivité centrale et périphérique, les baro-réflexes, et les récepteurs ergo périphériques qui fournissent la mesure de l'équilibre autonome ou sympathovagal. L'invention concerne également le procédé de sélection et de mesure de l'indice de prédiction de la mortalité, et, par conséquent, des composantes sympathiques et parasympathiques de l'équilibre autonome au repos, pendant un exercice dynamique isotonique et pendant la récupération. L'invention permet également de définir le risque de décès à l'aide de la méthode de Kaplan-Meier pour certaines variables traduites. Cette méthode va permettre aux médecins de collecter, de visionner, de suivre et de gérer des données compliquées provenant de plusieurs sources à l'aide de techniques de visualisation simples permettant de mieux comprendre les conséquences de leurs actions thérapeutiques.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for
convergence correction in a television receiver and to a
television receiver, in particular a projection
television receiver having in each case one monochromatic
picture tube for the three primary colours, red, green
and blue, the images of which can be projected onto a
picture screen. Each picture tube is assigned a
correction device, which comprises a convergence circuit.
The convergence circuit is assigned a memory in which
correction values for the convergence correction of the
three picture tubes are stored. In accordance with the
correction values, the convergence circuit generates
output signals, which are output to a correction device,
which in each case comprise at least one correction coil
and, for each correction coil, one driver circuit. A
correction current is applied to the associated
correction coil in order to correct image defects of a
picture tube. According to the invention, the convergence
circuit also has control means by means of which the
output signals output to the correction devices can be
influenced in such a way that the same correction is
always effected on the picture screen for a specific
correction value, independently of the gain of the
respective driver circuit.
