Abstract: A compensation arrangement for addressing the problem of first-order and
second-order polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in an optical fiber communication
system includes separate, independent elements for each type of PMD. First-order
PMD may be compensated using conventional techniques related to adjusting the transit
time differential between the polarization states. The second-order polarization mode
dispersion is compensated by recognizing the separate sources of second-order PMD
(pulse broadening analogous to chromatic dispersion, additional pulse broadening due
to optical filtering (narrowing), and coupling of a portion of the optical signal into the
orthogonal polarization relative to the main pulse with a different transmit time. A
chirped fiber grating with a variable temperature gradient, a complementary optical
filter with variable spectral transmission and a polarizer, respectively, can be used to
compensate for these three sources of second-order PMD.

Abstract: A stratified-charge combustion system design for
direct-injection spark-ignited engines with the piston bowl
(42) in the exhaust-valve side. The air flow from the inlet
valve provides a normal tumble in-cylinder air flow. The
fuel injector (34) is positioned on the intake-valve side of
the combustion cylinder and forms a charge stratification in
the combustion chamber. With the piston bowl (42) on the
exhaust-valve side, the distance for spray penetration of
the fuel from the injector is extended. The rate of fuel
spray penetration in the combustion chamber is reduced by
counter air flow against the fuel spray. The air-fuel
mixture is moved upwardly to the area of the spark plug by
the tumble air flow for ignition. The invention provides
less piston bowl wall wetting which results in less soot
formation and less emissions of undesirable hydrocarbons.

The resource scheduler further includes logic for determining a duration of an override time interval, the override time interval having a beginning and an end, associated with at least one customer node based upon a minimum average rate of consuming the finite resource associated with the at least one customer node and the instantaneous rate of consuming the finite resource associated with the at least one customer node; and logic for initializing the override time interval whenever the at least one customer node seizes the finite resource and whenever the override time interval ends, wherein the logic for selecting schedules the at least one customer node to seize the finite resource in the subsequent service interval independent of the weights associated with the customer nodes when each override time interval ends. A corresponding method is also disclosed.

Abstract: Methods are provided for detecting methionine aminopeptidase (MAP) activity and for detecting inhibitors of MAP. The methods utilize a peptide comprising an N-terminal methionine which can be cleaved from the peptide by MAP, and a C-terminal detection moiety which is released by a second peptidase only if the N-terminal methionine has been cleaved from the peptide. When the peptide is combined with MAP and the second peptidase, the detection moiety is released, while the addition of a MAP inhibitor will inhibit the release of the detection moiety. Reaction mixes, peptides, and kits which are useful for practicing the methods are also provided.

IPC: H04W28/00

Abstract: A technique for encoding a signal used in a digital communication system in which individual traffic channel data rates may be adapted to specific channel conditions. In particular, a forward error correction coding rate is adapted for individual channels while at the same time maintaining a fixed block size independent of the FEC coding rate. This allows the system data rate to adapt to the channel conditions experienced by a specific user. Thus, users experiencing good communication conditions with low multipath distortion may be allocated higher capacity, whereas users with significant multipath distortion may make use of lower rate (higher levels of coding) error codes to maintain high quality. Messages are sent from a transmitter to a receiver to inform the receiver of the coding rate implemented at any given point in time. These parameters may be adjusted independent of tranmitted power level through the expedient of ensuring that size of a transmitted frame remains constant, while permitting the ability to changeFEC coding rates and FEC block sizes.

Abstract: An active filter reduces the common mode current in the ground wire of a
PWM controlled motor drive circuit. The active filter is, in part, integrated into an
integrated circuit chip and contains a buffer amplifier which drives two junction type
or MOSFET transistors linearly to divert common mode current from a ground wire
and through the transistors. The transistors are connected between positive and
negative d-c busses which supply d-c power to a PWM inventor which drives an a-c
motor, producing the common mode ground current in its grounded frame. A current
transformer monitors the common mode current and its output is coupled to the input
of the buffer amplifier to control the transistors. An internal power supply for the
amplifiers is formed at the nodes between two current sources and two zener diodes
which are connected between the d-c bus conductors. Headroom control circuits are
disclosed to insure sufficient headroom voltage for each of the transistors under all
input a-c voltage conditions.

Abstract: A terminal determines a target value (S_target) of stream
data to be stored in its buffer in relation to its buffer capacity
and the transmission capacity of the network. Also, the terminal
arbitrarily determines a delay time (T_delay) from when the
terminal writes a head data of the stream data to the buffer to
when the terminal reads the data to start playback in a range not
exceeding a value obtained by dividing the buffer capacity by the
transmission capacity. Those target value and the delay time are
then both notified to a server. Based on those notified values,
the server controls the transmission speed so that the buffer
occupancy (Sum) of the terminal changes in the vicinity of the
target value without exceeding the target value.

Abstract: This can prevent declination in the operational
efficiency due to the stop motion of an engine (11) at the
cancellation of the interconnection and minimize loads
exerted on the startup device for the engine. A system
protector (138) is provided for generating a fault signal
when detecting a fault on the system source (14). Upon
receiving the fault signal, an interconnection relay (135)
is opened to cancel the interconnection and simultaneously,
a timer (39) is started. The cancellation permits the engine
(11) to run with no load. When the fault signal is maintained
until the setting duration of the timer (39) is timed up,
a time-out signal is released to stop the engine (11). On
the other hand, when the fault signal is eliminated by
canceling the cause of the fault before the setting duration
of the timer (39) is passed, the interconnection relay (135)
is closed to establish the interconnection again and the
timer (39) is reset.
