Abstract: An audio codec and a method of compressing audio data makes use of a filterbank which automatically adapts itself to changes in the sampling frequency/bit rate to mimic the characteristics of the human auditory system. The algorithm used compares the bandwidth of each sub-band at a given depth with the critical bandwidth. If the critical bandwidth is less than the bandwidth of the sub-band, then the sub-band is split into two at the next level, and the process is repeated until the bandwidth of every sub-band is less than the critical bandwidth at the corresponding frequency. The codec thus automatically adapts itself to changes in sampling frequency/bit rate, which particularly advantageous when very low bandwidths are in use.

Abstract: A fluid infusion pump includes a platen between an outer door and the pumping mechanism. The platen is located so that as the outer door of the pump is moved to the closed position, it moves the platen to position the fluid flow tube into occlusive contact with the pumping mechanism before the platen engages a flow stop formed integrally with the tube and releases the flow stop to permit fluid flow, thus avoiding a free flow condition. The door also includes a handle having a sear with a hook that engages the flow stop when the door is in the closed position. As the door is opened, the hook moves the flow stop to the occluded position before the platen is moved away from the tube thus preventing a free flow condition. The platen includes a flow stop release portion that is offset from the remainder of the platen that operatively engages a release tab on the flow stop to permit movement of the flow stop to the fluid flow configuration. The platen is mounted to the housing with a floating hinge and datum pins located on the face of the pumping mechanism precisely locate the platen into position with the pumping mechanism and thereby result in precise positioning of the fluid tube.

Abstract: The atmospheric pressure is detected accurately without using an atmospheric pressure sensor. <??>The atmospheric pressure is obtained from an intake air pressure just before an inlet valve opens by detecting an intake air pressure. Since the intake air pressure just before the inlet valve opens becomes unstable when the engine load is large, the atmospheric pressure is calculated from an intake air pressure just before the inlet valve opens when the engine load is small. In addition, since the intake airpressure just before the inlet valve opens depending upon engine rotational speeds, the atmospheric pressure is calculated from an intake air pressure just before the inlet valve opens when the engine rotational speed resides in a predetermined rotational speed area. <IMAGE>
