| 20100241437 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR NOISE FILLING - A method for perceptual spectral decoding comprises decoding of spectral coefficients recovered from a binary flux into decoded spectral coefficients of an initial set of spectral coefficients. The initial set of spectral coefficients are spectrum filled. The spectrum filling comprises noise filling of spectral holes by setting spectral coefficients in the initial set of spectral coefficients not being decoded from the binary flux equal to elements derived from the decoded spectral coefficients. The set of reconstructed spectral coefficients of a frequency domain formed by the spectrum filling is converted into an audio signal of a time domain. A perceptual spectral decoder comprises a noise filler, operating according to the method for perceptual spectral decoding. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20110035212 | TRANSFORM CODING OF SPEECH AND AUDIO SIGNALS - In a method of perceptual transform coding of audio signals in a telecommunication system, performing the steps of determining transform coefficients representative of a time to frequency transformation of a time segmented input audio signal; determining a spectrum of perceptual sub-bands for said input audio signal based on said determined transform coefficients; determining masking thresholds for each said sub-band based on said determined spectrum; computing scale factors for each said sub-band based on said determined masking thresholds, and finally adapting said computed scale factors for each said sub-band to prevent energy loss for perceptually relevant sub-bands. | 02-10-2011 |

| 20100327591 | Kinetic Energy Recovery Turbine - The invention consists of developing an environmentally friendly new energy converter using light weight material. The energy converter shall be fully submersed in running undercurrents waters and have high overall efficiency ratio. The energy converter consists of, among other things, eliminating the in-line electric generator and substitute it with peripheral electro-magnetic coupling device, attached to the runner tip from inside and surrounding the energy converter housing from outside. The energy converter electric brushless circuits and winding must be totally sealed from water, using new sealing techniques and shall be also electrically isolated as well. The energy converter allows extracting energies from undercurrents with large frequency and voltage ranges. | 12-30-2010 |

| 20080311305 | WATERBORNE EPOXY COATING COMPOSITION AND METHOD - A waterborne coating composition comprising a waterborne epoxy coating with hydraulic cement, which is capable of a thin initial application. The coating composition may be made, stored and transported as a two-part composition, where each part is a pourable liquid. The waterborne epoxy composition cures under normal conditions and adheres to surfaces including masonry, concrete and metal. | 12-18-2008 |
