Abstract: The staircase artifact appearing in Magnetic Resonance Angiography boundaries between flowing blood and stationary tissue is eliminated by using a variable local interpolation direction which is determined based on comparing local intensity patterns. This technique of local directional interpolation is applied either to a three dimensional array of voxels prior to projection or to a two dimensional array of pixels after projection. In the case of interpolating lines of further pixels between consecutive lines of original pixels, a window of ni pixels in a present line is compared to successive groups of ni pixels in a search window of n 2  ≧ n 1  pixels which groups are successively shifted in position in the search window. A match measure is formed by either a correlation or a root mean squared error (or a combination thereof) between the window and groups compared. The best match with respect to a threshold determines corresponding pixels. In the absence of a match better than the threshold a default vertical direction of interpolation is taken.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices (30) having emitters (38) having resistive emitter diffusion sections (41) which are in a radial pattern. Such devices include vertical PNP power devices such as transistors. A radial pattern of holes (40) defines the resistive emitter diffusion sections between adjacent holes. The resistive emitter diffusion sections result in a lower emitter ballast resistance due to the higher emitter sheet resistance of PNP devices. This allows all the periphery of the emitter to be active, not just two sides. The device has improved emitter ballast resistance while at the same time remaining efficient with low saturation resistance.

Abstract: An implementation efficient digital timing recovery circuit capable of being implemented without the use of multipliers. The circuit includes a voltage controlled crystal oscillator ("VCXO"), a signal generator, a non-linear operation circuit, a digital bandpass filter, a bi-quadratic filter, a digital phase lock loop circuit (DPLL) and a zero crossing detector circuit. The circuit implements a spectral line extraction technique for symbol timing recovery. A signal is received by a tuner, passed through an analog to digital converter, whose sampling rate is controlled by the timing recovery circuit, and is then supplied to a Nyquist filter. The In-phase and quadrature-phase signals output by the Nyquist filter are passed through the non-linear operation circuit to produce a signal which is then passed through the bandpass filter and then the bi-quadratic filter which has a passband centered at the symbol rate of the received signal. A quadrature output signal of the bi-quadratic filter is cross-correlated with an internal signal, generated by the signal generator as a function of the sampling rate, to produce a frequency error signal. The DPLL circuit receives the frequency error signal and uses it to generate a control signal to control the sampling rate of the A/D converter. The DPLL circuit adjusts the sampling rate until the bi-quadratic filter's output is phase locked to the output signal of the internal signal generator. A symbol decision clock signal is generated by the zero crossing detector from the signal generator.

Abstract: Laser light from LD (laser diode) is guided through a fiber to be projected onto a reflector. A receiver detects a return beam of modulated light reflected by the object and outputs a signal reflecting a phase difference between the laser light and the modulation signal. The frequency of the modulation signal is changed based on the signal value so as to finally achieve phase lock. When the phase lock fixes the frequency of the modulation signal, the frequency always corresponds to a distance from LD to the reflector or a group index of a substance filling the optical path. Thus, the distance to the object or the group index of the substance filling the optical path at the time of phase lock can be determined in a simple manner and with a high accuracy, based on the output frequency at the time of phase lock.

Abstract: The procedure transmits information between at least two terminal devices (TA, TB) connected to an exchange unit (R1-R5). The exchange units (R1-R5) can be connected to each other via at least one transmission channel of at least one network (NW). To transmit signalling information between the exchanges (R1-R5), at least one transmission channel is used as a signalling channel. When useful data also need to be transmitted, another channel is formed as a data channel. Alternatively, at least one transmission channel is formed to transmit signalling information between the exchanges (R1-R5) such that when useful data also need to be transmitted, the data are transmitted compressed in virtual data channels. As far as possible, the virtual data are transmitted in the same transmission channels as the signalling information. When the transmission channels are in full use, further channels are formed as required to transmit further data or signalling information.

Abstract: A memory device which utilizes a plurality of memory modules coupled in parallel to a master I/O module through a single directional asymmetrical signal swing (DASS) bus. This structure provides an I/O scheme having symmetrical swing around half the supply voltage, high through-put, high data bandwidth, short access time, low latency and high noise immunity. The memory device utilizes improved column access circuitry including an improved address sequencing circuit and a data amplifier within each memory module. 
     The memory device includes a resynchronization circuit which allows the device to operate either synchronously and asynchronously using the same pins. 
     Each memory module has independent address and command decoders to enable independent operation. Thus, each memory module is activated by commands on the DASS bus only when a memory access operation is performed within the particular memory module. 
     The memory device includes redundant memory modules to replace defective memory modules. Replacement can be carried out through commands on the DASS bus. 
     The memory device can be configured to simultaneously write a single input data stream to multiple memory modules or to perform high-speed interleaved read and write operations. 
     In one embodiment, multiple memory devices are coupled to a common, high-speed I/O bus without requiring large bus drivers and complex bus receivers in the memory modules.

Abstract: To adjust image distortion such as geometric distortion or misconvergence in an image displayed by a projection type color display apparatus, absolute screen coordinates are assigned to each of plural photodetector elements disposed in the display screen periphery, a test pattern for image distortion adjustment is detected, and the resulting output ratios of the photodetector elements are weighted by the screen coordinate values to achieve high precision test pattern position detection. High speed, high precision image distortion adjustment is thus achieved, and changes over time in image distortion resulting from temperature-related drift and other factors can be constantly or occasionally corrected while displaying a normal video image to the screen.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a contact photolithographic process for realizing submicrometer metal lines, in particular lines for devices such as FETs, MESFETs and ICs, with width different from the pattern width on the masks, through contact photolithographic techniques. In particular through this technique it is possible to realize metal lines having width smaller than 0.5 µm. 
     By varying the reversal photoresist exposure energy it is possible to control the dimension of the line to be realized. Using an exposure energy lower than the one normally used, lines having width smaller than the width of the corresponding tracks on the mask are obtained and viceversa, with an exposure energy higher than the one normally used, lines having width greater than the corresponding tracks on the mask are obtained.
