Abstract: A process for developing a low fat, concentrated meat broth from animal products and by-products. A commercial broth product is the result of the fat and water removal process. The broth is used as a key base ingredient for development of a variety of flavorings.

Abstract: A desired signal having a wide frequency band and including sequential symbols representing digital values is discriminated from a narrow band interfering signal having a carrier frequency in the wide band by initially applying both signals to a filter so both signals are passed to an output of the filter. In response to the filter output, estimates of the values of received symbols of the desired signal are derived and compared to the filter output to derive an error representing signal. A characteristic of the filter is controlled in response to the error representing signal so the filter is adjusted to reject the interfering signal and pass the desired signal.

Abstract: A demodulator responsive to a symbol containing analog signal includes a pair of relatively inexpensive analog-to-digital converters for sampling I and Q channels of the signal only once per symbol. A derotator responsive to outputs of the converters and a digital signal representing frequency and phase corrections for an input to the demodulator operates in accordance with a CORDIC function to derive I and Q channel digital signals that are compensated by the corrections. A digital phase shifter responsive to at least one of the digital I and Q signals controls when the input is sampled by the converter.
