Patent EP-1185105-A2 (EP)
Inventor: LUNDEN VESA
IPC: H04N7/24
Filed: 2001-05-04
Abstract: A method and system for transmitting an alternative video or
multimedia data file during an interrupted video transmission in,
for example, a mobile video telephony system. In a first aspect of
the invention, the method includes interrupting the video signal
(200) which then automatically initiates downloading of a video
data file from a storage medium (205,206) into a memory (120) for
transmission to viewers over the mobile telephony system during
the interruption in the video transmission. In a second aspect, a pre-encoded
multimedia data file is stored on a storage medium (310)
and downloaded into the video telephony system for playback to
viewers during the interruption thereby providing a more enjoyable
and possibly more informative viewing experience. In a third
aspect, a software generated image is produced (400) and
transmitted to viewers in lieu of the interrupted video transmission.

Abstract: The present invention relates to receivers, and, more particularly, to improved diversity receivers. In some environments, such as those subject to multipath reflection or shadowing, some carriers may be received with low power. In these cases, diversity receivers may provide an improvement of around 3 dB to 6 dB, the latter figure referring to cases where the communication channel is under severe multipath fading and in mobile reception. A diversity receiver effectively comprises two or more separate receivers, or diversity branches, each with its own antenna. Each set of received carriers from each diversity branch is then combined. The present invention provides an improved method and apparatus for receiving multi-carrier signals.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zubereitung zur Restenoseprophylaxe. Bei den bischer bekannten Zubereitungen für die Restenoseprophylaxe kann in den betroffenen Abschnitten der Gefässwände keine ausreichende Wirkstoffkonzentration erreicht werden, da höhere Dosierungen unerwünschte Nebenwirkungen verursachen. Bei der vorliegenden Erfindung wird einer Zubereitung mindestens ein lipophiler antihyperplastischer Wirkstoff zugesetzt, der einen Verteilungskoeffizienten zwischen Butanol und Wasser von ≥ 0.5 besitzt. Der lipophile Wirkstoff wird rasch und in ausreichender Menge in die Gefässwand aufgenommen. Die Zubereitung kann flüssig und kapillargängig sein und ein Kontrastmittel enthalten, so dass bei den in der Regel erforderlichen Kontrastaufnahmen ohne zusätzlichen Aufwand ein Wirkstoffübergang in die Gefässwand erfolgt.

Inventor: POMAREDE CHRISTOPHE F
IPC: C23C16/22
Filed: 2001-11-19
Abstract: Methods are provided herein for treating substrate surfaces in preparation for subsequent nucleation-sensitive depositions (e.g., polysilicon or poly-SiGe) and adsorption-driven deposition (e.g. atomic layer deposition or ALD). Prior to depositing, the surface is treated (110, 125) with non-depositing plasma products. The treated surface more readily nucleates polysilicon and poly-SiGe (such as for a gate electrode (220)), or more readily adsorbs ALD reactants (such as for a gate dielectric (260)). The surface treatment provides surface moieties more readily susceptible to a subsequent deposition reaction, or more readily susceptible to further surface treatment prior to deposition. By changing the surface termination of the substrate with a low temperature radical treatment, subsequent deposition is advantageously facilitated without depositing a layer of any appreciable thickness and without significantly affecting the bulk properties of the underlying material. Preferably less than 10 Å of the bulk material incorporates the excited species, which can include fluorine, chlorine and particularly nitrogen excited species.

Abstract: For eliminating waste of ink and achieving high
charging efficiency with a reduced charging time where a
printing head is equipped with a second tank for reserving
a predetermined amount of ink and a supply system is
configured to supply ink from a first tank (107) to the
second tank intermittently, the second tank (304) having
a variable internal volume is provided, and the internal
volume is varied to cause the second tank itself functions
as an actuator for charging ink and performing a venting
process. Specifically, the internal volume is forcibly
reduced to cause a reverse flow of a gas residing in the
second tank along with ink into the first tank (107), which
makes it possible to generation of waste ink that is
released to the outside. A normal charging operation can
be completed simply by causing a change in the opposite
direction (the direction of increasing the internal
volume).

Abstract: Herein disclosed are an apparatus and method for encoding
a wobble signal to be recorded on an optical disc, and an
apparatus and method for decoding a wobble signal read from the
optical disc. The encoding apparatus performs a minimum shift
keying modulation operation for a wobble signal to be recorded
as physical address information on a writable optical disc, by
adjusting a first frequency f 1  and second frequency f 2  of the
wobble signal with coherence. Therefore, a peak point of the
wobble signal is formed at a point of time that the frequencies
change. The decoding apparatus band pass filters an analog
wobble signal read from the optical disc, converts the filtered
wobble signal into a digital wobble signal, detects a peak
point of the converted digital wobble signal, outputs a peak
detection signal with a level transition at the detected peak
point, and detects/outputs original wobble data on the basis of
the outputted peak detection signal. Therefore, the decoding
apparatus is able to accurately decode the wobble signal in a
simple manner.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for repairing a

of the blade 10. The disclosed method comprises the steps of
cutting back a first surface 18 of the turbine blade 10 adjacent
the blade trailing edge portion 26 where the crack 16 is
located, and cutting back a second surface 20 of the turbine
blade 10 adjacent the blade trailing edge portion 26 where the
crack 16 is located. Each cut back step comprises cutting back
the respective surface 18,20 by a depth L greater than the
length of the crack 16 and less than the trailing edge radius to
remove the crack 16 and form a cut back trailing edge portion
28. A compound radius is used to prevent a blunt transition
into the trailing edge 12 that would result in aerodynamic
losses and to reduce the airfoil root stresses. The method also
includes applying a thermal barrier coating to the turbine blade
10 to increase service life. Prior to applying the coating, the
tip portion 46 of the turbine blade 10 is modified to account
for the change in the thermal characteristics of the turbine
blade 10.
