Abstract: METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE TRANSMISSION OF SPEECH SIGNALS of the Invention For the multiplex transmission of coded speech signals in periodic frames, single segments (blocks of coded samples) are selectively suppressed for redundancy reduction, and are replaced on the receiver side by optimally correlated subsections of equal length from previously transmitted segments. On the transmitter side, a multiplicity of compare operations are made for each speech signal, between the respective newest coded segment and a step wise shifted subsection window of previous segments, to determine the best correlated subsection, i.e. the one which is most suitable as replacement and the respective relative offset and correlation. From a group of speech signals, the one signal, or several signals, having the best correlation is selected for suppression of a segment before transmission. Instead of each missing segment an indication of the corresponding optimum offset is transmitted in the frame header. In the receiver for each speech signal a few previous segments are kept in storage from which then, with the aid of the received offset indication the optimally suited subsection can be selected and used as replacement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for creating a pattern on a substrate comprising a first alignment structure, using an elastomeric stamp comprising a patterning structure and a second alignment structure. The method comprises a moving step for moving the elastomeric stamp towards the substrate, and a deformation step for deforming the patterning structure with a tensile or compressive force generated by cooperation of the first alignment structure and the second alignment structure.

Abstract: A transducer for detecting movement of an article mounted for movement in a plane, the transducer comprising: a heater facing the plane of movement of the article and having a temperature dependent resistance; and, an edge defined in the article between regions of different thermal conductivity; wherein, as the article describes the movement, the edge moves relative to the heater producing a corresponding variation in heat loss from the heater and a corresponding variation in resistance of the heater.

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention, there is provided an apparatus comprising a tape having an information layer on which information is storable in the form of perturbations, an array of probes that in function faces the tape such that the probes scan the surface of the tape, means for selectively forming the perturbations via the probes, means for detecting the presence of the perturbations via the probes, and drive means for moving the tape relative to the array of probes. The apparatus allows to store high data capacities at a small form factor.

Abstract: Apparatus for detecting data in a sensor signal generated by a read sensor in a local probe data storage device comprises a differentiation for subtracting a value of the sensor signal from the succeeding value of the sensor signal to generate a ternary difference signal; and a convertor connected to the differentiator for converting the difference signal into a binary output signal indicative of the detected data. A local probe data storage device comprising such apparatus is also described.

Abstract: A method for forming a microstructures is described. The method comprises: depositing a seed material on a substrate; growing a nanotube from the seed material; depositing microstructure material on the substrate to embed the nanotube in the microstructure material; and, detaching the substrate to release the microstructure. The resulting mictostructure comprises a body portion and a nanotube embedded in the body portion.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a storage device comprising a local probe array (72) and a storage medium (70) with an array of storage fields (71). The local probe array (72) is situated opposite to said storage medium (70) such that each local probe (73) of the local probe array can be scanned over the corresponding storage field (31, 40, 71). The storage device further comprises means (RF, 44; CF, 45) for distinguishing between information (41) to be erased from a first section of the storage medium and information in this section which is not to be erased, means for selectively copying said information which is not to be erased into a memory, preferably another section (32) of said medium, and means for erasing the whole first section.
