Abstract: The present invention relates to a polyarylate prepared by a method comprising a step of copolymerizing divalent phenol, divalent aromatic carboxylic acid halide and the allyl bisphenol derivative. The polyarylate according to the invention is a novel polyarylate in which various functional groups can be introduced to the main chain of the polymer as well as the terminal of a polymer, and the concentration thereof can be adjusted. These functional groups allow improvement in the adhesion force by chemically bonding with the substrate or protective layer when coated, thus the polyarylate is suitably used for a film or a coating composition.

Abstract: An original loudness level of an audio signal is maintained for a mobile device while maintaining sound quality as good as possible and protecting the loudspeaker used in the mobile device. The loudness of an audio (e.g., speech) signal may be maximized while controlling the excursion of the diaphragm of the loudspeaker (in a mobile device) to stay within the allowed range. In an implementation, the peak excursion is predicted (e.g., estimated) using the input signal and an excursion transfer function. The signal may then be modified to limit the excursion and to maximize loudness.
