  • ADAPTATION LOGIC FOR VARYING A BITRATE
    Publication number: 20140365677
    Abstract: A reduction in bitrate oscillation penalties is achieved by determining an oscillation measure measuring a balance of bitrate increase and bitrate decrease of the varied bitrate at which recently retrieved segments of the sequence of segments have been retrieved and setting the bitrate at which a current segment of the sequence of segments is to be retrieved depending on the oscillation measure.

  • Rotatable lifting surface device having selected pitch distribution and camber profile
    Patent number: 7040940
    Abstract: Rotatable lifting surface devices, such as propellers, impellers, and turbines, and blades for such devices use camber profiles and pitch distributions to obtain performance from flexible devices and blades, made from materials like polymers and polymer-composites and even metals, that is substantially the same as the performance of stiff devices and blades, usually made from materials like steel and aluminum.
