    摘要: A binary image encoding method includes a predicting step of predicting a binary image, and a blocking step of blocking a data sequence, which indicates the prediction hit or miss in the predicting step, into blocks to produce blocked data. Also, a binary image encoding method includes an encoding step of switching a Huffman table in accordance with the blocked data around a Huffman-block-encoding-target block to apply the Huffman block encoding to the encoding-target block.

    摘要: An optical fiber terminal fitted with an optical isolator comprises an optical fiber, a ferrule which holds the optical fiber in position, and an optical isolator which includes an optical isolator assembly having at least one magneto-optical element and at least one polarizer and means for applying a magnetic field of less than saturation to the magneto-optical element. The fiber, ferrule, and isolator are disposed close to one another and joined integrally. The optical isolator has a maximum outside diameter not more than twice, preferably substantially equal to, the outside diameter of the ferrule.

    摘要: An apparatus for recording a video signal onto tracks of a recording tape includes circuitry for producing a first time-base reference signal which is a color burst signal composed of a first predetermined number of sinewave cycles and a second time-base reference signal which is a burst signal composed of a second predetermined number of sinewave signals. The second predetermined number of cycles is larger than the first predetermined number of cycles. The apparatus further includes superimposing circuitry for superimposing the first time base reference signal on an input video signal at intervals of a horizontal scanning period of the video signal and for superimposing the second time base reference signal on the input video signal at intervals of a predetermined number of horizontal scanning periods of the video signal. The apparatus further includes a modulator for modulating an output signal of the superimposing circuitry to obtain a modulated signal and a recording arrangement for recording the modulated signal onto the tracks of the recording tape.

    摘要: A signal processing apparatus for changing the frequency characteristics of an input signal, e.g.--a video or audio signal, allows a signal to pass through a transmission circuit in a positive time sequence and then, allows the signal to be transmitted through another transmission circuit having the same transmission characteristics in a reverse time sequence with respect to the positive time sequence. Also, while the transmission circuit is arranged to have a zero-phase characteristic, each segment of a continuous signal is processed throughout a period which is equal to at least two times a duration of an impulse response direction of the transmission circuit. Accordingly, unwanted wave errors appearing at discontinuous regions of the signals are eliminated.

    摘要: In transmission or recording of a digital signal by means of digital amplitude and phase modulation, particularly recording into and reproducing the same from the a magnetic recording medium, a digital amplitude/phase modulated signal to be demodulated is commonly affected by the non-linear amplitude characteristics and the effects of unwanted jitter and envelope variation. As the result, the error rate of decoded data will be increased. For compensation, the Viterbi decoding technique is employed with the use of a weighted distance value calculated by multiplying an Euclidean distance between the signal point of a reproduction signal and the datum point of each code by a positive weighting factor which is determined smaller when the code datum point is located further from the origin point of a coordinate system. Accordingly, the weighted distance of each reproduction signal point from its corresponding datum point can approximately be uniform thus ensuring less error decoding in general.
