The invention, which relates to a method and an arrangement for interference compensation in a phase-locked loop comprising a voltage-controlled frequency generator, wherein the frequency generator is tuned to a nominal frequency by a tuning voltage Vtune and whose actual frequency is compared with a reference frequency by means of a frequency comparison and is re-adjusted if a deviation is detected via the frequency comparison, in which case, in the event of interference, the tuning voltage Vtune is changed by an interference voltage Vstör that depends on the interference event, and thus a frequency deviating from the nominal frequency is generated, which deviating frequency is corrected again by the phase locked loop, is based on the object to provide a method and an arrangement for interference compensation in a phase-locked loop comprising a voltage-controlled frequency generator, with which a deviation from a predefined nominal frequency is avoided if known interference events occur. The object is achieved in accordance with the invention in a method whereby, if a known interference event occurs, a voltage Vstör which compensates for the interference voltage Vcomp, is generated in synchronism with this with sign inversion and is superimposed on the interference voltage Vstör.

A high-pressure discharge lamp has an outer envelope (1) in which a discharge vessel (11) is arranged enclosing a discharge space (13) with an ionizable filling. The discharge vessel has two mutually opposed neck-shaped portions (2,3) through which current supply conductors (4, 5) extend to a pair of electrodes (6, 7) in the discharge space. A lamp base (8) of electrically insulating material supports the discharge vessel. The lamp base also supports the outer envelope. The outer envelope with a volume equal to or less than 2 cc encloses the current supply conductors and is connected to the lamp base in a gas-tight manner. A getter (10) is provided in the outer envelope for pumping out residual nitrogen from the outer envelope after sealing off the discharge lamp prior to operation of the discharge lamp, the getter (10) comprising at least 2.5 mbar.ml nitrogen. Preferably, the getter comprises an alloy of zirconium and aluminum or of zirconium and cobalt.

A method and system for selecting a signal from a plurality of signals received by a component in an AV system. An identifier is added (106) to a signal in dependence on the signal being generated by an active component of the system. For each received signal containing an identifier, one or more parameters of the identifier are determined (116), such as the start time when the component became active, or the address of the component. A signal is selected (124) from the plurality of signals received according to the determined parameters and optionally with reference to a relevant parameter such as component address sent via a separate communications channel.

A method of dynamically allocating payload bits in a watermarking system (10) is provided. The method including steps of: (a) determining one or more parameters to be conveyed in bits of a payload to be included in watermark information for embedding in programme content; (b) dynamically allocating the bits to corresponding of the one or more parameters so as to represent the one or more parameters in the payload; (c) including the payload in the watermark information; and (d) embedding the watermark information including the payload into the programme content. Such dynamic allocation of payload bits is capable of providing more effective use of payload capacity.

A method is described for recording an audiovisual information stream comprising a plurality of alternative parts (VS1; VS2; VS3) and at least one common part (AS1; AS2; GS1; GS2), wherein the alternative parts of the information stream are recorded in an interleaved manner. Each of the alternative information stream parts is divided into alternative information stream blocks (VSB1(i); VSB2(i); VSB3(i)). Each of the common information stream parts is divided into common information stream blocks (ASB1(i); ASB2(i); GSB1(i); GSB2(i)). The information stream is recorded as a succession of consecutive interleaved units (IU(i)), each interleaved unit comprising one corresponding block (ASB1(i); ASB2(i); GSB1(i); GSB2(i)) of each of the common information stream parts (AS1; AS2; GS1; GS2) and one corresponding block (VSBI(i); VSB2(i); VSB3(i)) of each of the alternative information stream parts (VS1; VS2; VS3), the common information stream blocks being separate from the alternative information stream blocks.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling at least one readout parameter of a magneto-optical domain expansion recording medium. An average detected runlength of the reading signal is monitored, and an error signal is generated on the basis of a comparison of the monitoring result with the predetermined average runlength that has been set during the encoding step. The at least one readout parameter is then controlled by means of the generated error signal. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method, apparatus and record carrier wherein a runlength constraint is applied to at least one of the following quantities: mark regions and space regions in said storage layer, said runlength constraint being selected to keep an accumulated runlength deviation from a predetermined average runlength within a predetermined range. The proposed runlength property and control scheme provide the advantage that all detected runlengths contribute to the error signal to make the response must faster and to reduce readout errors.
摘要:
The invention relates to a microscope arrangement and to a method with which the spatial distribution of a magnetically and/or electrically sensitive fluorescent marker (21) in a sample (20) can be determined. Fluorescence radiation (VF) is excited by primary radiation (VE) in the sample (20) and imaged by a microscope. At the same time, within the sample (20) a spatially inhomogeneous magnetic and/or electric field (33) is generated, which has, for example, a small focal region (22) of minimum field strength. The emission of fluorescence radiation is locally modified in the focal region (22), which can be observed in the measured intensity distribution (IFM). In this way, the distribution of the fluorescence marker (21) even in regions (22) having a size below the optical resolution of the microscope (10) can be reconstructed.

The method is capable of providing for enhanced scale factor determination and hence improved watermark retrieval.
摘要:
A heterogeneous layered video decoding system and associated method is disclosed that provides for flexible and cost effective scalability through the use of generic decoders (e.g., MPEG-2/4/AVC) at each layer instead of decoders specifically designed for scalable systems. In one embodiment, additional signaling information (220) embodied as a parameter list is transmitted along with the transport stream (250). The parameter list independently defines for each layer (BS, ES), how the particular layer is to be decoded. In this manner, a trade-off between complexity and efficiency is achieved. For example, the base layer (BS) may employ a sophisticated base layer AVC codec, while one or more enhancement layers (ES) may use an MPEG-2 codec that is half as complex as a full AVC codec but only slightly less efficient.
