Abstract: This invention relates to a non-intrusive speech quality assessment system. The invention provides a method and apparatus for storing a sequence of intercepted packets associated with a call each packet containing speech data, and an indication of a transmission time of said packet; storing with each intercepted packet an indication of an intercept time of said packet; extracting a set of parameters from said sequence of packets; and generating an estimated mean opinion score in dependence upon said set of parameters; characterised in that the extracting step comprises the sub steps of: generating a jitter parameter for each of a sequence of stored packets in dependence upon the difference between the transmission time of a stored packet and the transmission time of a preceding stored packet of the sequence; and the difference between the intercept time of said stored packet and the intercept time of said preceding packet; generating a long term average jitter parameter for said stored packet in dependence upon the value of said jitter parameter for said stored packet and the value of said jitter parameter for any preceding stored packets; and generating a differential jitter parameter in dependence upon the jitter parameter and the long term jitter differential parameter. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a method of measuring a glycated protein in a sample using a redox reaction, by which the glycated protein can be measured accurately with high sensitivity. In order to remove a glycated amino acid present in the sample other than the glycated protein, the glycated amino acid is degraded in advance by causing a fructosyl amino acid oxidase to act thereon, and thereafter, a fructosyl amino acid oxidase is caused to act on the glycated protein in the presence of a tetrazolium compound and sodium azide to cause a redox reaction. The amount of the glycated protein is determined by measuring the redox reaction. As the glycated protein, glycated hemoglobin is preferable. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for determining signal-to-noise ratios and noise levels in an optical signal is disclosed, the first polarisation state of which is converted into a second polarisation state by means of number of tunings of a polarisation regulator. Defined changes to the second polarisation state are adjusted on the Poincare sphere by means of the polarisation regulator, whereby power values for the optical signal are determined after selection of a component of the electrical field. Some of the determined power values for the optical signal are stored and serve for the calculation of the signal-to-noise ratio of optical signals. Said method is rapid, requires little complicated equipment and is particularly suitable for a WDM transmission system in which many channels in a WDM signal are transmitted with small channel separations.

Abstract: An area area package includes a plurality of solder balls not used as electrical connectors. These non-connected solder balls, or "dummy balls," provide protection to solder balls connected to live pins and therefore increase reliability of the area array package. The dummy balls may be placed in the corners, along the diagonals or in other high stress location on the area array package. To further increase reliability, a continuous copper ball land pad may be used to connect each group of corner dummy balls. Continuous copper pads help to reduce stress on the dummy balls. For center-depopulated BGA packages, an array of dummy balls may be used in the center of the package to prevent substrate bending and improve drop test reliability.
