Patent DE-60118229-D1 (DE)

Abstract: An oximeter sensor adapter which allows a sensor without a resistor in parallel with its LEDs to operate with an oximeter expecting such a resistor in parallel. The adapter includes LED drive electronics and appropriate oximeter drive current sensing circuitry for converting the drive signals from the oximeter into appropriate LED drive signals for the sensor. Instead of a resistor being on the sensor in parallel with one or more of the LEDs, the resistor is placed across the leads in front of the LED drive electronics and oximeter drive current sensing circuitry, on the oximeter side of the adapter. By providing LED drive electronics and oximeter drive current sensing circuitry which do not draw significant current at a low voltage, the oximeter is able to measure the resistor independently just as if it were in parallel with the LEDs.

Abstract: A spatial light modulator having a substrate holding an array of deflectable (e.g. mirror) elements. The deflectable elements are deflectably coupled to the substrate via corresponding hinges, each hinge being disposed on a side of the deflectable element opposite to the side on which the substrate is disposed. By placing the hinge in this way the fill factor of the array is improved. The hinge can be provided flush against the deflectable element, or it can be provided with a gap between the deflectable element and the hinge. The hinge can be attached via one or more posts or walls connecting to the substrate, and with a flexible or deformable portion that is substantially or entirely hidden from view when viewed through the substrate (e.g. a glass substrate). In one embodiment, the hinge is connected to the undersides of both the substrate and the deflectable element, and connects towards a center part of the deflectable element. In this way, a longer hinge is provided thus reducing strain on any one part of the hinge. Advantages of the present invention include: (1) increased fill factor as the torsion hinge is hidden behind the reflective plate; (2) increased contrast due to fewer scattering optical surfaces exposed, and due to a greater ability to control their angle and geometry; and (3) increased geometric flexibility to optimize electro-mechanical performance and robustness with respect to manufacturing.

Abstract: A method and apparatus of increasing output power of a plurality of carriers of a wide-band multi-carrier base station system utilizes gain adjusting coefficients to adjust output amplitude of the carriers to satisfy the requirement of the wide-band base station system for different number of carriers and output power. The output power of each of or a part of the carriers is increased when the number of carriers is reduced. Under the premise of not modifying the hardware and satisfying the requirement of protocol specification, the wide-band base station system supports different number of carriers by setting software so that the output power of the respective carriers and the coverage of the base station can be increased when the carriers do not operate in a full configuration. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Semi-permeable membranes are described that allow for the efficient processing of many liquid based feed solutions, particularly those that contain acids. The membranes of this invention are able to process such feeds with high permeate rates while maintaining excellent retention of dissolved metals, cations, and organic compounds, even in the presence of hot concentrated acids. The semi-permeable membranes of this invention are able to conduct such separations for a useful period of time due to their chemical stability towards acids and their ability to permeate acids.

Abstract: To permit reliable occurrence of initial combustion at the start of an engine during which a stroke is not determined by only a crank pulse and to increase an engine speed. <??>During a period from when cranking is started until a stroke is detected, fuel is injected once every rotation of a crankshaft before an intake stroke (or an expansion stroke) , and ignition is effected once every rotation of the crankshaft in the vicinity of the top dead center, thereby enabling initial combustion without involvement of reverse rotation of the engine. If a stroke is detected, fuel injection and ignition are effected once per cycle. When the engine speed fails to become equal to or higher than a predetermined speed, the ignition timing is set to a point before the compression dead center and in the vicinity of 10 DEG  toward advance, thereby immediately increasing the engine speed. Stroke detection is permitted when the engine speed has become equal to or higher than the predetermined speed, so that the engine speed becomes stable. <IMAGE>

Abstract: K  data signals, or bursts, are transmitted over a shared spectrum in a code division multiple access communication format. A combined signal is received and sampled over the shared spectrum, as a plurality of received vector versions. The combined signal includes the  K  transmitted data signals. A plurality of system matrices and an associated covariance matrix using codes and estimated impulse responses of the  K  data signals is produced. Each system matrix corresponds to a received vector version. The system and covariance matrices are extended and approximated as block circulant matrices. A diagonal matrix of each of the extended and approximated system and covariance matrices are determined by prime factor algorithm - fast Fourier transform (PFA-FFT) without division of the matrix. The received vector versions are extended. A product of the diagonal matrices and the extended received vector versions is taken. An inverse block discrete Fourier transform is performed by a PFA-FFT on a result of the product to produce the estimated data of the  K  data signals.
