Abstract: The assistance installation comprises vehicle speed measurement means, superimposition display means (12) of a reference pattern (22) with a size which varies with the vehicle speed. The reference pattern allows the driver to compare the distance separating him from the preceding vehicle and a pre-specified safe distance for the vehicle speed. The display means are adapted to display a two dimensional reference motif delimiting a contour representative of the visible contour of the preceding vehicle spaced at the safe distance. Means (28,30) are provided for modifying in two directions the size of the contour according to the vehicle speed.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for obtaining high throughput linearity using a pre-distorter in front of a RF power amplifier, for instance a multi-carrier power amplifier (MCPA) for a communications system. The method can be carried out off-line to thereby save costs and components otherwise needed for a common on-line feed back. In a first step calibration is performed by measuring by an off-line spectrum analysis an output spectrum of the power amplifier and simultaneously applying a known input signal. As a next step digitized parameters characterizing the power amplifier are calculated in the frequency domain by comparing spectrum points between input spectrum and output spectrum. Thereafter calculated and weighted digitized parameters are transferred to a pre-distorting device. In a third step the known signal spectrum is transferred to the pre-distorting device feeding its output signal together with the original known signal spectrum to the power amplifier input thereby compensating for power amplifier non-linearity and minimizing inter-modulation products. Finally in a fourth step an uncompensated known input spectrum is compared with a corresponding compensated output spectrum of the power amplifier and the steps of calibration calculation are repeated until a best optimization input signal to the power amplifier regarding the inter-modulation products of the output signal has been achieved.

Abstract: A micromachined device such as a solid-state liquid chemical sensor for receiving and retaining a plurality of separate liquid droplets at desired sites, a method of making the device and a method of using the device are provided. The technique works for both aqueous and solvent-based solutions. The device includes a substrate having an upper surface, and a first set of three-dimensional, thin film well rings patterned at the upper surface of the substrate. Each of the wells is capable of receiving and retaining a known quantity of liquid at one of the desired sites through surface tension. A method for patterning a membrane/solvent solution results in reproducibly-sized, uniformly-thick membranes. The patterning precision of this method allows one to place the membranes closer together, making the sensors smaller and less expensive, and the uniform film thickness imparts reproducibility to the sensors. The final film thickness can be controlled over a 3 to 50 micron range, and lateral dimensions can be as small as 20 microns using conventional materials. The simple patterning steps can be done on full wafers in a mass fabrication process. A second set of well rings may be photo-patterned at the same time as the first set of well rings to isolate functional groups on top of ion-selective membrane.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a current collector for an electrochemical cell. The current collector has a unique grid structure comprised of a frame supporting a plurality of radial strands as conductors radiating outwardly from a focal point on a connector tab. The frame and radial conductors are maintained in a fan-like orientation with respect to each other by two groups of concentric conductor strands, one located adjacent to the tab, the other spaced a substantial distance therefrom. The radiating conductors provide a more direct path to the connector tab for electron flow. This results in the current collector having reduced internal resistance in comparison to conventional current collector designs. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Lifting units (30) designed to work from the seabed are fixed to the ends of the hanging equipment (10) and then applied to the seabed. The lifting units lift the equipment to allow the vessel hull to pass underneath and engage in the space defined between the lifting units. The equipment is lowered onto the hull, the lifting units dismounted, and the equipment is connected to the hull of the vessel  The equipment is installed on a barge before the lifting units are applied to the seabed, the equipment and the barge are separated during the lifting operation and the barge is then removed. A number of skate assemblies are fixed at the points where the lifting units press on the seabed, with surfaces guiding the hull laterally. A number of stiffeners (16A, 16B, 16C, 16D, 18A, 18B, 18C) are fixed to the equipment before lifting to form a rigid structure between the lifting units at least during the lifting and lowering of the equipment, and these stiffeners are removed to give the equipment the necessary flexibility after it has been placed on the vessel hull. Each lifting unit has a leg with a rack which is designed to press on the seabed and a device for guiding and driving the leg mounted to move on the equipment. This device includes at least one pinion engaged with the rack and a reduction motor driving the pinion to move the leg relative to the guiding and driving device. An Independent claim is also included for equipment to carry out the above process, comprising equipment to be mounted on the vessel hull; lifting units; and devices for temporarily connecting the lifting units to the equipment at each end with a gap which allows the vessel to pass between the lifting units.

Abstract: A sampling device for obtaining samples of internal body substances in the digestive system is a swallowable capsule which allows a sample of the body substance to enter the capsule through an inlet which opens in the digestive tract following contact with the substance to be collected. The capsule inlet initially is sealed and, after the capsule has been swallowed, the inlet opens following contact with the body substance. An inner chamber preserves a vacuum or substantial under pressure when the inlet is sealed by a blocking member adjacent to the inlet. The blocking member is elastic and has a flow permitting configuration which admits the body substance into the inner chamber and a flow preventing configuration which blocks the inlet from the inside of the chamber when the pressure difference has been equalized.
