20100087236 | CASE ASSEMBLY FOR ANTENNA AMPLIFYING SYSTEM, ANTENNA AMPLIFYING SYSTEM AND MAST ANTENNA INTEGRATING SUCH A SYSTEM - The invention relates to a case assembly for antenna amplifying system, an antenna amplifying system and a mast antenna incorporating such a system. According to the invention, the case assembly for antenna amplifying system having a general shape elongated along a longitudinal axis ( | 04-08-2010 |
20100201590 | REMOTE ELECTRICAL TILT ANTENNA WITH MOTOR AND CLUTCH ASSEMBLY - RET antenna with motor and clutch assembly that is operative to mechanically disengage the DC motor and drive unit (also called the gear-motor unit) from the phase shifter adjustment shaft during a manual tilt operation. Disengaging the gear-motor unit removes the drag of the motor and the high gear ratio gear box from the phase shifter control rod making it easier to manually turn the phase shifter control knob. In addition, the clutch disengages the gear-motor without disengaging the position detector from the phase shifter control rod so that position calibration is not lost during manual tilt adjustment. When the manual tilt operation is completed, the mechanical tilt clutch enables the gear-motor unit to be reliably re-engaged with the phase shifter control rod for motorized electrical tilt operation without having to re-calibrate the position detector. | 08-12-2010 |
20100201591 | MULTI-BEAM ANTENNA WITH MULTI-DEVICE CONTROL UNIT - RET antenna with a modular switching unit and a multi-device control unit con figured to be inserted into and removed from a receptacle in the antenna. The multi-device control unit works together with motors and position sensors located inside the antenna to allow a single controller located in the multi-device control unit to control multiple embedded electro-mechanical actuators, such as phase shifter control motors. The multi-device control unit includes lightning protection circuits, communications circuits, a motor controller, power control circuits and a motor position sensing circuit inside a small housing. These components are shared between all motors inside the antenna through the modular switching unit, which allows a single set of components within the multi-device control unit to replace redundant components deployed in prior RET antennas. | 08-12-2010 |

20090041271 | Positioning of speakers in a 3D audio conference - A method, implemented by electronic data processing resources, for audio conference between conference participants via their respective terminals, the participants including at least one listener and at least one speaker, the method comprising, for at least said listener and for at least said speaker, the steps consisting in, estimating, as a function of a digital signal coming from a terminal of the speaker, at least one characteristic specific to said speaker, and determining, using said at least one estimated characteristic, a setpoint for positioning the speaker within a virtual space of the listener. | 02-12-2009 |
20090097663 | Joint Sound Synthesis And Spatializaiton - The invention concerns a process for joint synthesis and spatialization of multiple sound sources in associated spatial positions, including: a) a step of assigning to each source at least one parameter (p | 04-16-2009 |
20090103738 | Method for Binaural Synthesis Taking Into Account a Room Effect - The invention concerns a method for three-dimensional spatialization of audio channels from a filter BRIR filter incorporating a theater effect. For a specific number N of samples corresponding to the size of the pulse response of the BRIR filter, it consists in breaking down (A) the BRIR filter into at least a set of delay and amplitude values associated with the times of arrival of reflections; extracting (B) on the number of B samples at least one spectral module of the BRIR filter; and constituting (C) from each successive delay, its amplitude and its spectral module associated with an elementary BRIR filter (BRIR | 04-23-2009 |
20090129631 | Method of Tracking the Position of the Head in Real Time in a Video Image Stream - The invention relates to a method of tracking the position of the bust of a user on the basis of a video image stream, said bus comprising the user's torso and head, the method comprising the determination of the position of the torso on a first image, in which method a virtual reference frame is associated with the torso on said first image, and in which method, for a second image, a new position of the virtual reference frame is determined on said second image, and, a relative position of the head with respect to said new position of the virtual reference frame is measured by comparison with the position of the virtual reference frame on said first image, so as to determine independently the movements of the head and the torso. | 05-21-2009 |
