20140251721 | HVAC BLOWER WITH NOISE SUPPRESSION FEATURES - A blower for an HVAC system of a motor vehicle. A fan is supplied with airflow by a duct having a bend adjacent to the fan that causes a low-pressure region at a face of the fan. A baffle is located immediately adjacent to the fan face and collocated with at least a portion of the low-pressure region to impede airflow through the face of the fan at that location. The baffle acts to reduce unwanted low frequency noise and improves the mechanical efficiency of the fan. The baffle covers a circular segment of the fan face and may have sound-suppressing features, such as ridges formed on at least one surfaces. | 09-11-2014 |

20150270820 | TUNABLE FILTER USING VARIABLE IMPEDANCE TRANSMISSION LINES - Techniques for implementing tunable lumped element filters with transmission line sections. Transmission lines sections are used to implement one or more inductive or capacitance component elements of the filter. The filter is tunable by changing the dielectric constants of the transmission lines. In particular implementations there is an individual transmission line section for each lumped element component of a filter. Different filter circuits may be combined to provide a universal tunable filter assembly. | 09-24-2015 |

20120224642 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING SINGLE VIEW VIDEO SIGNAL BASED ON A MULTIVIEW VIDEO CODING (MVC) SIGNAL STREAM - A method and system for producing a single view video signal based on a multiview video coding (MVC) signal stream. A MVC signal stream representing multiple spatially related views of a scene, including a base view and at least one dependent view, is decoded to provide multiple decoded video signals representing the spatially related views, with respective portions of the MVC signal stream representing one of multiple temporally adjacent video frames, and the MVC signal stream representing multiple sequences of spatially adjacent video frames. The decoded video signals are processed to provide a processed video signal representing one of the spatially related views using image information from more than one of the decoded video signals. As a result, more image data is used during processing, thereby improving the spatial and temporal image quality. | 09-06-2012 |

An application-controlled weighting mechanism may be used if both of the thresholds are not met. | 06-27-2013 |
20130301725 | EFFICIENT MODE DECISION METHOD FOR MULTIVIEW VIDEO CODING - A method for determining a macroblock (MB) coding mode for a current MB in a dependent view. A window around a co-located MB in a base view is determined, wherein the co-located MB is a MB in the base view having a same location as the current MB in the dependent view. A coding mode complexity value (CMCV) is determined for each MB in the window, wherein the CMCV is based on a coding mode used to encode the MB. Rate distortion optimization (RDO) is performed for the current MB using a reduced number of coding modes if a total CMCV for all MBs in the window is less than a threshold, or using all supported coding modes if the total CMCV for all MBs in the window is greater than the threshold. A coding mode for the current MB is determined based on the RDO results. | 11-14-2013 |
