Inventor: AKOPIAN DAVID
IPC: G01S1/00
Filed: 2001-03-27
Abstract: An apparatus, a system, and a corresponding method for
acquiring a spread spectrum signal that includes a carrier
component at a carrier frequency, a code component, and a data
component, where the acquiring includes matching the phase of a
replica of the code component to the phase of the received code
component and also determining the carrier frequency including
any shifting of the carrier frequency such as caused by the
Doppler effect or by inaccuracies in transmitter or receiver
clocks.

Abstract: At the time of the speaker adaptation, first feature vector
generation sections (7, 8, 9) generate a feature vector series
[c i, M ] from which the additive noise and multiplicative noise
are removed. A second feature vector generation section (12)
generates a feature vector series [s i, M ] including the features
of the additive noise and multiplicative noise. A path search
section (10) conducts a path search by comparing the feature
vector series [c i, M ] to the standard vector [a n, M ] of the standard
voice HMM (300). When the speaker adaptation section (11)
conducts correlation operation on an average feature vector
[s ^ n, M ] of the standard vector [a n, M ] corresponding to the path
search result Dv and the feature vector series [S i, M ], the
adaptive vector [x n, M ] is generated. The adaptive vector [x n, 
 M ] updates the feature vector of the speaker adaptive acoustic
model (400) used for the voice recognition.
Patent EP-1203902-A3 (EP)
Inventor: WIGSTEN MARK MACDONALD
IPC: F16G13/06
Filed: 2001-10-08
Abstract: A sprocket (S1,S2) is disclosed for use with a roller chain (C) and that substantially avoids radial impact of chain rollers (R) with the sprocket. The sprocket differs from prior sprockets in that the tooth root radius (90) of the sprocket is increased while the sprocket pitch circle (80) diameter is maintained. This configuration creates a clearance between the roller and the tooth root (60). This clearance allows rollers of a chain of like pitch to impact the sprocket teeth in a substantially tangential fashion on their flanks (130), rather than substantially radially on the tooth root (60).

IPC: G01R19/14

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for determining the
polarity of a current of a phase of an inverter, without
using a current sensor. Switches of the inverter are
connected in series and are switched on and off alternately
such that a "dead-time" (62, 64) is produced between each
switching during which both switches are off. By detecting
the phase voltage (63) at the switches, and determining if
that voltage is high or low during each "dead-period" (64),
a signal is produced having a first value if the phase
voltage (63) is high and a second value if the phase
voltage is low. By determining the times of transitions
between the first and second values, the invention is able
to determine the polarity of the phase current
corresponding to that phase voltage. The switches of the
inverter are connected in series and respective
freewheeling diodes are connected in parallel with the
switches.

Abstract: If a repeater supervisory control (SV), a
pre-emphasis automatic adjustment (PE), a receiving
side threshold value automatic adjustment (Vth), a
transmitting side dispersion compensation value
setting (VDC(T)), and a receiving side dispersion
compensation value setting (VDC(R)) are executed for
an optical main signal, these controls are executed in
the above described priority order. Accordingly, if the
controls are independently executed, or if two or more
controls simultaneously occur, a control with a higher
priority is executed. In this way, a transmission
quality of an optical signal is prevented from being
badly influenced as a result that the controls are
simultaneously executed.

Abstract: A method of fabricating a field emission display employing carbon
nanotubes (CNTs) as electron emitters is provided. The method includes
forming a cathode (2) on a substrate (1); forming a gate insulation
layer (3) having a plurality of the gate holes (3a) on the cathode;
forming a gate electrode (4) having a plurality of via-holes (4a)
corresponding to the gate holes, respectively, on the gate insulation
layer, forming a plurality of conductive columns (15) higher than the
gate electrode on the cathode within the respective gate holes; adhering
the CNTs (17) to the bottom of a plate template (18) which is separately
provided; bringing the bottom of the template having CNTs to contact the
tops of the conductive columns to adhere the CNTs to the tops of the
conductive columns; and firing the conductive columns to lower the
levels thereof. Accordingly, the problems of conventional methods, such
as sinking of CNTs caused by screen printing, residual CNTs remaining
within a gate when a lift-off method is used and short circuiting
between gate and cathode due to the residual CNTs, can be solved. In
addition, CNTs are applied to only a part for field emission, that is,
only the top of a conductive column, thereby requiring fewer CNTs and
decreasing fabrication cost. Moreover, the method uses stamping in order
to form CNTs, so it is very advantageous in mass production.

Abstract: A printer for printing on a web of record members such as labels, tags, etc. includes an interpreter and a memory for storing an application program. The interpreter is enabled or disabled by the receipt of a command. When enabled, the interpreter processes an application program to extract data from a received data stream and to construct one or more data packets in a predetermined printer control language to be sent to a parser. When the interpreter is disabled, the received data is sent to the parser bypassing the interpreter. The printer of the present invention is thus operable to print received data with or without an application program.

Abstract: In an automatic beam-axis adjustment system, a beam-axis
of a headlight (10L,10R) is gradually swivel to a position
determined based on a steering angle (STA) of a steering wheel
(17). The beam-axis returns to the initial position and a
swivel control is inhibited when a vehicle is at a stop or
slowly moving in an intersection, regardless of the steering
angle (STA). The swivel control is restarted after the vehicle
starts running straight ahead. In other words, the swivel
control is not restarted until the vehicle starts running
straight ahead even when the speed (SPD) of the vehicle
exceeds a predetermined value (SPDth). Therefore, the movement
of the headlight (10L,10R) does not disturb a driver.
