Abstract: According to the invention, the functional units of a complex and high quality overall system are distributed in system modules in such a manner that the total accrued license payments to external rights holders are minimized. According to the invention, price increasing resources are used, preferably in system modules where the license charges are reduced or low.

Abstract: Telephone terminal, in particular a mobile telephone having a housing and having a first input device for controlling all the implemented functions and for entering the digits of telephone numbers, having a second input device which is held in a snap-on module, can be fitted to the housing and, when in the fitted state, at least partially covers the first input device, for speed-dialing input for at least one predetermined telephone number.

Abstract: For the expansion of a cordless telecommunications system, in particular a DECT cordless telecommunications system, with respect to great transmission ranges in cordless telecommunications there is provided in a cordless telecommunications system (PIZSL-TKS) a relay station (RS) which is assigned at least one cordless mobile station (PIZ-MS). In the case of cordless telecommunications, the relay station (RS) replaces a cordless base station (PIZ-BS) and, in the case of the expanded cordless telecommunications, it is designed as a cordless mobile station (MIZ-MS, MAZ-MS, HYZ-MS).

Abstract: For synchronizing a data block in a receiver, there are transmitted consecutively and prior to the data block: a first bit sequence of alternating "0" and "1" levels for determining the bit clock and a second bit sequence for determining the block synchronization by correlation. In known methods of determining the bit clock, the phase range of the individual bits of the received digital signal is divided into sub-intervals and the phase position of the bit clock is determined on account of the number of edges in these sub-intervals. In order to avoid fading and phase jitter having a detrimental effect on the bit synchronism, more specifically when transmitting through radio transmission links, N-phase-shifted clocks having the same clock frequency are generated in the receiver by means of which the first bit sequence is sampled.

Abstract: In a device for adjusting a movable electro-acoustic sound transducer, an optical duct is connected to the sound transducer which only allows an object, such as a display table or a data display unit, to be viewed completely in one specific position. This position is unambiguously reproducible and so is the position of the sound transducer or microphone relative to the mouth of the speaker. The optical duct may comprise diaphragms or a tube, possibly with intermediate walls, or a phase amplitude grating.The object may be a display unit and the device further comprises a device for generating variable data on the display. If used for speaker identification, the variable data generator projects consecutive instructions on the display so that, the speech recognition process is controlled automatically. The speaker to be identified is then required to keep his mouth in the correct position relative to the microphone.

Abstract: A method and device for determining the internal structure of a body by means of acoustic beams. Transit times and intensities of acoustic beams passing through the body in different spatial directions are measured to establish the refractive index distribution and the acoustic absorption coefficient distribution, respectively at the points of a point matrix associated with the body. The non-rectilinear course of the acoustic beams is taken into account in this respect. This results in reconstructed images of higher quality.

Abstract: Determining the internal structure of a body, for example, a human body, by means of an electric field which extends between individual electrodes of an electrode array which at least partly surrounds the body. Each time the value of the currents flowing through the individual electrodes is measured. From the currents electrical resistance values in individual tubes of flux generated between the electrodes are measured. By exposure of the body successively to electric fields which each have a different direction and by measurement of the resistance values then occurring, the specific resistance in individual elements of a matrix which is imagined to be stationary with respect to the body can be determined. From the given distribution of the specific resistance in the elements of the matrix, resistance values are calculated in all tubes of flux successively at least once for each field direction.
