Patent EP-1089434-A2 (EP)
Inventor: FLAXL THOMAS
IPC: H03K21/40
Filed: 2000-09-22
Abstract: An assembly for generating a consecutive count includes an n-stage
binary counter (24) incrementable by counting pulses in
successive cycles and an EEPROM (10) in which an item of
information representing the count achieved in each case is
stored in the pauses between the cycles. The EEPROM (10)
comprises n+1 memory cells. A control circuit (36) is provided
causing the contents of the n-1 stages of the binary counter
(24) assigned to the most-significant bits to be stored in the
n-1 first memory cells of the EEPROM (10) and the contents of
the n th  or (n+1) th  memory cell is changed in alternate cycles.
On commencement of each cycle the contents of the n-1 first
memory cells of the EEPROM (10) is transferred into the
corresponding stages of the binary counter (24) and a bit is
written into the n th  stage of the binary counter (24) formed by
linking the contents of the n th  and (n+1) th  memory cells of the
EEPROM (10) such that the count corresponds to the count
attained in the previous cycle, whereby the counting pulse then
increments the binary counter (24) to the next count.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for transmitting and receiving orthogonal frequency
division multiplexing (OFDM) signals. The transmission method includes the steps of: (a)
coding the OFDM signals; (b) forming a block of N coded data and dividing the block into
L M-sized small blocks, where N, M and L indicate integers of 1 or more, and  L = N/M ;
(c) M-point inverse fast Fourier transforming the L small blocks; (d) combining L M-point
inverse fast Fourier transformed blocks, and generating an N-sized inversely-transformed
block; (e) attaching a cyclic prefix to the N-sized inversely-transformed block; and, (f)
transforming the blocks having the attached cyclic prefix, into an analog signal and
transmitting the transformed analog signal. Accordingly, compared to a typical OFDM
method, the PAR of a signal is significantly reduced, and compared to a typical single carrier
method, the structure of an equalizer is simplified.

server to exceed a specified time limit. A reference for
transfer timing (reference time-slot) which can guarantee a
continuity of a stream for the requested real time stream

a request for a transfer of a new real time stream data is
received, a time-slot for a reading of another real time
stream data is re-allocated within a prescribed tolerable
range defined with respect to the reference time-slot for
that another real time stream data so as to create a vacant
time-slot, and a reading of that new real time stream data
is allocated to the vacant time-slot created by re-allocation.

Abstract: An optimally finished gear (12), (14) has a surface roughness between
approximately 5 micro-inches Ra to 10 micro-inches Ra. The reduced surface
roughness, when located at the gear teeth (20), can reduce the maximum contact stress
by more than fifty percent. Similarly, the subsurface shear stress can be reduced by
approximately thirty percent. The reduced contact stress and reduced shear stress
results from improved lubrication conditions between the gear teeth (20). Surface
roughness greater than 10 micro-inches Ra results in increased contact of the surface
peaks, while surface roughness lower than 3 micro-inches is too smooth to retain
adequate lubrication between the gear teeth.
