Abstract: A digitizer with increased dynamic range is provided
by applying varying gains/attenuations to an input signal and
feeding the resulting scaled signals to several conventional
analog-to-digital converters to be digitized. The digitized
version of the largest scaled signal which does not result in
its respective analog-to-digital converter from saturating is
selected by a multiplexer to be fed through as the digitizer
output. Each of the gains(attenuations) differ by multiples of
approximately 6 dB, since one bit in an ADC represents this
value. The multiplexer outputs a digital sample size which is
larger than that of the analog-to-digital converters and with
the selected digitized version being output as the appropriate
subset of the larger sample size to account for the
gain(attenuation) of the selected signal. Preferably, this is
used in a wideband receiver to increase the dynamic range of
the receiver.

Abstract: A system and a method for authenticating electronic messages sent to
a network server (132) to prevent the delivery of any unwanted, unsolicited or
unauthorized electronic messages. The system of the present invention
includes a messaging client (108) at a remote location and a token module
(332) located on the network server (132). Both the messaging client (108)
and token module (332) separately and independently generate identical
tickets. One of the tickets is attached by the messaging client (108) to an
electronic message (172) and allows one electronic message to be sent
through the network server (132). The other ticket is stored in a valid ticket
database. When the network server (132) receives a request to send an
electronic message, the server (132) uses a message module (340) to
authenticate the message. Authentication occurs if the ticket attached to the
electronic message (172) matches a stored ticket in the valid ticket database.
An authenticated message (180) is sent to a receiving client (140), and a non-authenticated
message (480) is not delivered. The present invention also
includes a method for authenticating an electronic message sent by a
messaging client (108) through a network server (132) using the system of the
present invention.

Abstract: A polishing pad (10) for polishing semiconductors and
other planar substrates in the presence of a slurry
comprising abrasive particles and a dispersive agent is
disclosed. The polishing pad (10) includes a soluble component (14),
preferably fibrous, within a polymer matrix component (16). The
fibrous component (14) includes fibers soluble in the slurry
sufficiently to provide a void structure in the polishing
surface (20) of the pad (10). The void structure enhances the
polishing rate and uniformity by increasing the mobility
of the abrasive particles while reducing scratching of the
polished surface. Additives that further enhance polishing
and/or assist in the removal of residues generated during
polishing, such as surfactants and removers, are
optionally incorporated in the fibrous substance or
topographically coated on the fibrous substance.

Abstract: A path search circuit wherein a received signal is divided with a plurality of FFT windows to reduce arithmetic operation processing for cross-correlation coefficients is disclosed. An interleave unit divides received signal rxd into two rxd1, rxd2 at one-chip intervals, and the two sequences are picked out with overlapped FFT windows and FFT is performed for the picked out sequences by two FFT units. A cross power spectrum calculating unit determines cross power spectra between the received signal after the FFT and a reference signal stored in a reference signal storage unit. An output of the cross power spectrum calculating unit is averaged for each FFT window by an averaging unit, and IFFT is performed for the averaged cross power spectra by an IFFT unit. The two resulting cross-correlation coefficients are rearranged in order of time by a deinterleave unit and interpolated to an accuracy necessary for detection of a path timing by an interpolation unit (Fig. 2).

IPC: H03H9/145

Abstract: SAW devices such as interdigital transducers (IDTs) have been widely used in
RADAR applications and as filters. An IDT produces a SAW when excited by a single
electrical pulse and can be fabricated to embody a code, which code provides for a
passive autocorrelation of a SAW input to the IDT and thereby lends itself to further
application as a signal generator in a communication device. However, conventional SAW
expanders and compressors typically have insertion losses greater than 20 dB, which can
have a profound effect on an RF link budget in a communication system. Insertion losses
are drastically reduced by using a single phase unidirectional transducer (SPUDT-type)
instead of a conventional IDT as a SAW expander/compressor. A SPUDT-type reflects
SAW components which are lost in conventional IDT designs so that a stronger SAW is
directed toward a transmission element. In a receiver, a SPUDT-type directs a stronger
SAW toward a compressor IDT. A communication system based on SPUDT-type
techniques would be low-cost, low-power, small and simple alternative to known short
range communications schemes, including for example the Bluetooth™ solution. Operation
of a SAW system at a frequency of 2.4 GHz is contemplated.

Abstract: The object of this invention is to prevent a defect
which occurs in overhead or vertical welding when gravity
causes molten metal to drip downward so that the top of the
gap (21) has an undercut and the bead has a bulge along the
weld line (i.e., a convex bead is created). 
     During overhead or vertical welding, a unidirectional
current (A) is made to flow in the molten pool (10, 12) in
the direction of the weld line. When the aforesaid current
flows in conjunction with a magnetic field (9), a Lorentz
force (11) is exerted in the molten pool in an upward direction
towards the upper top side of the groove. This prevents
the molten metal from dripping downward and improves the
shape of the bead.

recording video data. 
     To be more specific, when playback data including a
bit error difficult to correct is detected, or when a an
access is made to a defective sector, recognizable dummy
data (DM) is used as a substitute for the playback data
supposed to be read out from the defective sector. 
     As a result, error recovery processing can be

model in the cepstral domain.
