Method and apparatus for telemetry adaptive bandwidth compression
Get PDFMethods and apparatus are provided for automatic and/or manual adaptive bandwidth compression of telemetry. An adaptive sampler samples a video signal from a scanning sensor and generates a sequence of sampled fields. Each field and range rate information from the sensor are hence sequentially transmitted to and stored in a multiple and adaptive field storage means. The field storage means then, in response to an automatic or manual control signal, transfers the stored sampled field signals to a video monitor in a form for sequential or simultaneous display of a desired number of stored signal fields. The sampling ratio of the adaptive sample, the relative proportion of available communication bandwidth allocated respectively to transmitted data and video information, and the number of fields simultaneously displayed are manually or automatically selectively adjustable in functional relationship to each other and detected range rate. In one embodiment, when relatively little or no scene motion is detected, the control signal maximizes sampling ratio and causes simultaneous display of all stored fields, thus maximizing resolution and bandwidth available for data transmission. When increased scene motion is detected, the control signal is adjusted accordingly to cause display of fewer fields. If greater resolution is desired, the control signal is adjusted to increase the sampling ratio
Heckscher-Olin Theory and Non-Competitive Markets
Get PDFThis paper derives statements of the Heckscher-Ohlin Theorem which remain valid in the presence of market power. Following Helpman (1 984a), the paper explores restrictions on permissible trade patterns that are implied by the post-trade equilibrium conditions of Heckscher- Ohlin theory. Restrictions on the patterns of commodity trade are derived to complement Helpman's factor content version of the competitive Heckscher-Ohlin theory, and the introduction of factor market power is shown to leave the validity of these restrictions unaffected, Restrictions on the pattern of Heckscher-Ohlin trade in the presence of product market power are also derived, and conditions are stated under which Helpman's competitive factor content restrictions continue to hold.
Guide to the School of Business records
Get PDFThese records contain informational materials about the University of San Diego School of Business. These appear to be records compiled by the University of San Diego Public Relations Office, specifically Director of Public Relations Sara Finn. Of significance within these records are planning documents and informational materials about the Hahn Endowed Chair of Real Estate Finance dedicated in 1993. Dr. Mark Riedy served as the first Hahn Endowed Chair. Also included are building dedication materials for the Legal Research Center, and Olin Hall. In addition to Olin Hall dedication materials, are records about the Olin Foundation and the site visit to USD prior to funding Olin Hall. These records also include News Releases about School of Business events and activities, as well as profiles of the school and faculty members.
Finding Aids are tools used to aid research by describing the materials in a collection. University Records Finding Aids include historical and/or biographical information along with a description of the collection and a folder listing of the content.
