An emission control catalyst that exhibits improved CO and HC reduction performance includes a supported platinum-based catalyst, and a supported palladium-gold catalyst. The two catalysts are coated onto different layers, zones, or monoliths of the substrate for the emission control catalyst such that the platinum-based catalyst encounters the exhaust stream before the palladium-gold catalyst. Zeolite may be added to the emission control catalyst as a hydrocarbon absorbing component to boost the oxidation activity of the palladium-gold catalyst.

The teachings as provided herein relate to a watermark embedded in an image that has the property of being relatively indecipherable under normal light, and yet decipherable under UV light. This fluorescent mark comprises a substrate containing optical brightening agents, and a first colorant mixture pattern printed as an image upon the substrate. The colorant mixture pattern layer has as characteristics a property of strongly suppressing substrate fluorescence, as well as a property of low contrast under normal illumination against the substrate or a second colorant mixture pattern printed in close spatial proximity to the first colorant mixture pattern. The second colorant mixture pattern having a property of providing a differing level of substrate fluorescence suppression from the first such that the resultant image rendered substrate suitably exposed to an ultra-violet light source, will yield a discernable image evident as a fluorescent mark.

A packet detection apparatus detects a packet from a received signal by using a preamble containing an established, repeating training sequence. A first autocorrelation calculator computes a first autocorrelation of the received signal over a first interval. A first determining unit determines packet discovery by comparing the first autocorrelation to a first autocorrelation threshold value. A second autocorrelation calculator computes a second autocorrelation of the received signal over a second interval equivalent to the interval length for packet discovery announcement. A second determining unit determines packet discovery announcement by comparing the second autocorrelation to a second autocorrelation threshold value lower than the first autocorrelation threshold value.
