Inventor: BOURDILLON LAURENCE
IPC: H02M3/335
Filed: 2002-11-01
Abstract: A soft-switching multiple output fly-back converter provides output cycling sequence control. Each of the multiple output circuits (511, 513) includes a bi-directional switch (S1, S2) which provides for flexible reconfiguration of the output cycling sequence. Further, the novel circuit allows each of the individual outputs, or any combination thereof, to be independently turned 'off' (i.e., removed from the cycling sequence) and re-introduced (i.e., turned 'on' again) at a later time as needed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a data discard signaling procedure in a wireless communication system. A Radio Link Control (RLC) provides PDCP in-sequence confirmations. The in-sequence confirmation means that confirmations shall be delivered to PDCP in the same order as PDCP PDUs submitted by PDCP. The sending RLC Acknowledge Mode (AM) entity confirms PDCP Service Data Units (SDUs) with Sequence Numbers (SN) that are positively acknowledged by the peer receiving RLC AM entity. In this way, PDCP PDUs and associated PDCP SDUs with SNs not positively acknowledged will not be deleted by the sending PDCP entity. Another solution provided by the present invention is when the SN for a PDCP SDU carried in a PDCP PDU confirmed by the RLC is larger than the smallest SN for the unconfirmed PDCP SDU, PDCP shall not delete this PDCP PDU and its associated SDU confirmed by RLC until the SN for this PDCP SDU indicated by this confirmation is the smallest or earliest SN. Therefore, the present invention provides a procedure for confirming data transmission which efficiently eliminates problems existing in lossless SRNS Relocation and PDCP Sequence Number synchronization and improves wireless communication system performance.

Abstract: A Maximum Time Interval Error test signal
generating apparatus (20) generates a predetermined
MTIE test signal which enables measurement of a
predetermined MTIE characteristic based on that signal
by inputting a clock signal from a reference clock
generator (15) modulated by a predetermined MTIE test
signal in terms of phase to an MTIE measuring unit (18)
including a low-pass measuring filter (18a) having a
predetermined high-cut characteristic at an input
portion thereof. A cycle-amplitude setting portion
(22) sets a cycle corresponding to an observation time
of each of desired plural specific points for a
predetermined MTIE characteristic of plural MTIE
characteristics and an amplitude corresponding to a
difference in the MTIE value between adjacent specific
points of the desired plural specific points. Plural
signal generating portions (24(1), 24(2), ... 24(n))
generate plural signals each having a cycle
corresponding to an observation time of each of the
desired plural specific points and an amplitude
corresponding to a difference in MTIE value between
adjacent specific points of the desired plural specific
points, the cycle and amplitude being set by the cycle-amplitude
setting portion (22) and having repetitive
waveforms in which after the signal amplitude increases
from its lower limit value to its upper limit value
during each observation time, it decreases from the
upper limit value to the lower limit value and then
outputting to each of the desired plural specific
points. A synthesizing portion (25) synthesizes the
plural signals output from the plural signal generating
portions (24(1), 24(2), ... 24(n)) by summing and 
outputs as the predetermined MTIE test signal. 
A holding time setting portion (23) sets a holding
time for holding the upper limit value and the lower
limit value of the repetitive waveform of the signal
over the predetermined time so that a signal cycle
having at least the shortest cycle of the plural
signals generated by the plural signal generating
portions (24(1), 24(2), ... 24(n)) is longer than
a predetermined time corresponding to the predetermined
high-cut characteristic of the low-pass measuring
filter in the MTIE measuring unit.

Abstract: Shock-absorbing leg comprises a cylinder (1), and a spring plate (3) having a bushing section (15) for a connection to the cylinder. A chamber (13) arranged on the cylinder side is at least partly filled with a primary formable material. The bushing section lies in contact with the primary formable material which in the solid state transfers a supporting force from the cylinder to the spring plate. A force-locking rotation-securing connection inserted in the force-transfer path from the spring plate to the cylinder determines the position of the spring plate to the cylinder. The bushing section of the spring plate has at least one rotation-securing profile (21) restricted in the peripheral direction for receiving the primary formable material.  Independent claims are also included for alternative shock-absorbing legs.

Abstract: A top registration transport mechanism and method for a mailing machine
is provided. The transport mechanism (100) includes one or more displaceable
rollers (140, 142) that have a diameter larger than the drive/idler rollers (116, 136).
A semi-elastic belt (118) is looped around the drive/idler rollers and displaceable
rollers. The larger diameter of the displaceable rollers causes a portion of the
transport belt in the area of the displaceable rollers to be slightly raised. The
registration plate can contact the raised portion of the belt to displace the belt and
displaceable rollers, thereby ensuring that very thin mail pieces can be effectively
processed by the transport. As thicker mail pieces traverse the transport, the
displaceable rollers can be further displaced before the entire transport
mechanism must be displaced to maintain registration of the mail piece against
the bottom of the registration plate.

Abstract: Apparatus and a method for locating edges of a part for acceptance testing of
the part. A white light source (12) illuminates the part which is mounted on a
support (14) and rotated relative to the light source. Light reflected by the
part creates an outline of the part along the edge thereof. The part is viewed

processor (18) analyzes the image to locate the edge of the part in three
dimensional space. Analysis of the image includes determining the number
of pixels comprising the viewed image, at the edge thereof, as the part is
rotated relative to the light source. The part has more than one edge, and
each edge is located using the method. The locations of the edges of the
part are now used in a co-ordinate system to locate other surface features of
the part.

IPC: H04L9/30

Abstract: The invention relates to devices and methods for producing coded data, for reproducing coded data and for re-signing originally signed data based on the fact that the coded data in addition to the coded media information, comprises the necessary information for decoding the data in addition to a signature thereof which produces the coded data.  The source of the coded data is thus traceable.  Reproduction of coded data is allowed within defined limits by the producer of the coded data for friends or relatives for example, yet large-scale duplication of the coded data is seen as an act of piracy.  The data pirate can be traced back by means of the signature, since the signature is optionally secured by means of an embedded water-mark signature.  Since the issue at stake is a concept wherein only legal use should occur for coded data, unauthorised removal of the coding is a criminal act. The inventive concept enables the wrong doer to be determined and takes into account both the ownership status of the provider with regard to a defined reproduction of media information and also has the potentiality of being acceptable to the market.
