Title: Apparatus for linearization of optic modulators using a feed-forward predistortion circuit
Inventor: FARINA JAMES D
IPC: H04B10/155
Filed: 1993-07-15
Abstract: A feed-forward predistortion circuit to provide improved linear response in optic modulators. The circuit includes a non-linear element, an amplifier/delay means and a power combiner. The non-linear element generates a first signal sin(X), where (X) is the input signal. The amplifier/delay means generates a second signal 2(X). The first and second signals are combined in the power combiner to produce a modulating signal 2(X)-sin(X) which is fed to an optic modulator. The modulating signal 2(X)-sin(X) compensates for the transfer function of the optic modulator which has a transfer function sin(X), thereby producing a linear output.

Title: Stent
Inventor: PINCHASIK GREGORY
IPC: A61F2/95
Filed: 1994-03-11
Abstract: This invention is a stent (20) and a method of making it from a wire, which method includes winding the wire on a mandrel (22), heating to form a coiled spring, and reversing the winding direction of the coiled spring to form the reversed coiled spring stent (20). The stent (20) so formed may be reheated over a special mandrel so as to partly relax the outer portion of same or all of the stent coils. The stent (20) may be made up of two or more sections, with adjoining section wound in opposite senses. Such a stent may be deployed by winding the stent onto a catheter, immobilizing the two ends of the wire and one or more intermediate points, bringing the stent to the location where it is to be deployed and releasing first the intermediate point or points and then the end points. The release of the wire may be accomplished by heating the thread immobilizing the wire so that the thread breaks and releases the wire.

Patent CA-2161463-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HINTON JOHN H
IPC: B41J2/47
Filed: 1995-10-26
Abstract: A Raster Output Scanner (ROS) assembly is mounted within a printing machine frame so as to maintain a very precise relationship with the photoreceptor being imaged. A ROS housing is mounted in relation to the photoreceptor so that, while the housing is fixed to a machine frame by isolators to damp out vibrations and transients, a mechanical latching to a photoreceptor backer bar provides a degree of rotational movement consistent with movement of the photoreceptor. Thus, errors created by photoreceptor motion are compensated for. The invention discloses a 3 or a 4 point mounting arrangement which affords a high degree of stability coupled with conformance with exacting registration tolerances.

Abstract: Striped electrodes 4, 5 are formed on upper and lower substrates 2, 3, respectively, and a vast plurality of partition members 8 are formed in a striped fashion so that a vast plurality of sealed linear interstices R each having a rectangular section are formed in mutually parallel relationship between the substrates 2, 3.  The upper-side rubbing direction A1 crosses the lower-side rubbing direction A2 at a predetermined angle, and the direction of extension K of each of the partition members 8 is caused to fall within the above cross angle.  An antiferroelectric liquid crystal is infiltrated in the linear interstices R, and the liquid crystal panel is cooled while proceeding from one end of the linear interstices R to the other end thereof.  A liquid crystal panel structure for antiferroelectric liquid crystal is provided which has excellent antishock and impact resisting properties.  The layer normal direction of liquid crystal molecular layer becoming irregular between the upper and lower substrates is prevented by the employment of the cross rubbing method to thereby avoid the occurrence of defects in the liquid crystal.  Further, the occurrence of zigzag defects is prevented by controlling the infiltration of the antiferroelectric liquid crystal and also controlling the cooling.
