  • Publication number: 20240107002
    Abstract: A method for coding image information includes generating prediction information by predicting information on a current coding unit, and determining whether the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information. When the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information, a flag indicating that the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information is coded and transmitted. When the information on the current coding unit is not the same as the prediction information, a flag indicating that the information on the current coding unit is not the same as the prediction information and the information on the current coding unit are coded and transmitted.

  • Patent number: 11473516
    Abstract: A method for improving accuracy of correction of fuel quantity at the time when a recirculation valve (RCV) is opened, may include a step of correcting injection amount of fuel based on consideration factors when the RCV is operated to be opened. The consideration factors include property values of a flow path of the RCV, the flow path being mounted to an intake pipe to connect between a front end of a compressor close to the atmosphere and a rear end of the compressor adjacent to combustion chambers, a first calculation value obtained by calculating amount of air to be introduced into the combustion chambers after circulating from the flow path of the RCV to the intake pipe, and a second calculation value obtained by calculating amount of hydrocarbon to be introduced into the flow path of the RCV by purging evaporative gas.

  • Patent number: 10808656
    Abstract: An intake and exhaust system for preventing generation of condensed water may include: an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system circulating some of combustion gas from an exhaust pipe to an intake pipe; an active purging system compressing and supplying evaporation gas generated from a fuel tank to the intake pipe; and a controller to control the EGR system and the active purging system. In particular, the controller calculates a saturated water vapor pressure based on temperature at a position between the EGR system and the intake pipe, and calculates a saturated water vapor pressure based on temperature of the intake pipe and then compares one of the two saturated water vapor pressures with a water vapor pressure of intake air so as to reduce an EGR rate of the EGR system or a purging rate of the active purging system based on the comparison result.

  • Patent number: 7072644
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for providing an arbitrary sound chosen by a subscriber instead of a conventional RBT, more particularly, to a method for providing a caller with an arbitrary sound chosen by the caller instead of an RBT in case that a called is not a subscriber of a called-based RBT replacement service. The present method comprises: a first step, conducted by an exchanger when a call is received from a terminal, of requesting a first trunk connection to other telephone communication network while requesting a second trunk connection to a sound providing means if it is confirmed that the calling terminal has subscribed to RBT replacement service and the called terminal is a subscriber of said other telephone communication network; and a second step, conducted by the sound providing means, of providing the calling terminal with an RBT-replacing sound set for the calling terminal through the exchanger.
