Inventor: KVANT MAGNUS
IPC: C23F13/02
Filed: 2000-05-16
Abstract: An environmental friendly, long-lasting, practical, effective and economic method of rendering a
surface antifouling properties is achieved by attaching a very thin copper-containing layer, sheet
or foil directly to said surface so as to form an electrically conductive layer. These copper-containing
sheets are, according to the invention, protected from oxidation by intermittently
applying a cathodic protection. 
     First, copper has been believed to prevent biological growth as a result of the leaching of
copper-ions. All previous methods, based on copper, have therefore been designed to release
copper-ions, which pollutes the water and causes harm to the biological life. It was thus highly
surprising that, by the application of intermittent cathodic protection to the copper-containing
sheets, a method which essentially and totally prevents all release of copper to the aquatic
environment, the antifouling properties were still maintained. As no corrosion occurs very thin
layers can be used adding further advantages to the method such as ease of application, weight
and cost. 
     Secondly, it was found, surprisingly and contrary to common belief, that such very thin layers in
the form of copper-containing sheets, because of their low weight, flexibility and feeble
thickness, could be made to follow any shape so closely, that many commercially available
water-resistant adhesives are sufficient to exclude water from penetrating in-between the
surface and the copper containing sheet so that said sheets are basically held in place by the
hydraulic pressure exerted on the sheet, once the structure is submerged. 
     The new method avoids all the disadvantages of the more common use of toxic paints, as the
surface will have a lower degree of roughness, be smear-free, offers long-term protection,
eliminates the environmental hazards and further protects the surface from other effects of its
contact with water.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a telecommunication network including:
     a fixed network for the routing of signals coming from voice and/or data;   at least one station suitable for radio communication with user equipment equipped
with transceivers;   at least one controller of said station connected to said fixed network.   
     In particular, according to the invention the above mentioned station controller is
connected to said station suitable for radio communication through copper twisted pairs
of the unshielded type at whose ends DMT (Discrete Multitone) modems are
connected. 
     In this way, the above mentioned copper twisted pairs work as "line feeders" of radio
systems such as for instance: UMTS, BLUETOOTH ®, or more in general wireless
local networks (WLAN). Thanks to the invention it is possible to use infrastructures
implemented with unshielded copper twisted pairs, largely diffused on the territory, to
feed with broad band signals radio cells of the typologies indicated above (fig.4).

L'invention est caractérisée par l'intégration des composants actifs et passifs dans des substrats de polymère bon marché, de préférence souples, et interconnectés par dépôt de cuivre non-électrolytique diélectrique photodéfinissable. De plus, l'intégration des composants passifs permet de les fabriquer par dépôt de cuivre non-électrolytique diélectrique photodéfinissable. La fabrication est réalisée à température ambiante sans procédés sous vide d'air tels que l'évaporation ou la vaporisation. L'invention présente également un autre avantage important car le microcâblage ou le soudage ne sont pas nécessaires. En effet, les techniques d'interconnexion les plus récentes s'adaptent aux difficultés croissantes dues aux fréquences plus hautes et à des volumes d'interconnexion moins importants.
