Abstract: In a bistable switching display device the occurrence of artefacts due to considerable changes of periodicity between successive grey scale stages is reduced by a suitable subdivision of the electrodes (112). To this end a drive unit (116) allocates fewer than 2 n  grey scale stages to each pixel (113) which is subdivided into n sub-pixels (113 a , 113 b , 113 c ). The change of periodicity will decrease when a suitable division of the surface ratios and drive sequence are chosen.

Abstract: A method of detecting conditions during the operation of a transport refrigeration unit (20) which may cause shutdown, and then modifying the operation of the unit in an attempt to find an operating condition that will keep the unit operating safely. The unit includes a compressor (26) driven by an engine (30) operable at low and high speeds. Upon detecting (264) an over-temperature condition of the engine a first modification (282) is initiated, including switching the engine to low speed. If the engine temperature does not drop to a safe value (288, 292), a second modification (296) is initiated. If the engine was in low speed (280) when the over-temperature condition was detected, the second modification is initiated immediately. Upon detecting (314) a low oil pressure condition, the engine is switched (316) to high speed. If the oil pressure rises to a safe level, engine operation is continued at high speed. Appropriate alarms (326) accompany the modified operating conditions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a decoding device for a data stream that represents a user signal and consists of multi-symbol words that are protected against burst errors. In case of a contingency situation a FIFO jump may occur. Subsequently, time- interleaving may occur and this will cause multi-symbol words to be built up from both symbols before, and symbols behind the discontinuity. If this is the case, within such word the minority symbols are flagged beforehand, so that many words will have an excessive number of flags causing the correction to fail. If so, an error concealment operation ensues, but the number of such concealments is kept about minimum. This will decrease the subjective quality of the user signal by only a minimum amount.

Abstract: There is disclosed a pacemaker, a dual chamber VDD(R) or DDD(R) pacemaker, having improved features for avoiding undesired sensor-sinus competition and providing blended sensor and sinus (atrial) control. The pacemaker employs atrial hysteresis which is used during sensing of natural atrial beats in order to enable tracking the sinus signals that occur at rates below the current pacing limit; and sensor hysteresis which prevents early takeover by sensor control and, in a DDDR pacer, controls when the sensor rate controls over a sensed sinus rate and also enables dropping the pacing rate during sensor control so as to enable finding and tracking of underlying lower rate sinus signals. The sensor hysteresis function is automatically adapted by obtaining and processing scattergram data representative of the sensor rate compared to the average of the natural sinus rate, and adjusting the sensor hysteresis function to optimally match the data.

Abstract: A substantially universal range of color standards over the visible spectrum is displayed for visual observation, comparison with extraneous colors and for interactive color processing in a color computer processing system. In the comprehensive set, standardized colors are defined by hue supplemented by black and white content related in a visual format. Thus, a set of discrete hue values across the visible spectrum, typically 24, is displayed in a circular array for selections of hue. Each operator selected hue is displayed together with a range of related color samples obtained by combining black and white content to produce a range of colors associated with that hue. Thus a very large number of colors may be viewed for visual effect and comparison with extraneous color patterns to make selections of harmonized color combinations. Any of the color samples is available for interactive color processing, such as editing, graphical development, and identification of colors and particularly in harmonized sets of colors for processing color images. Colors in objects such as paints, draperies, paintings, dresses, etc. thus may be closely identified and standardized for faithful reproduction, editing or other interactive color processing procedures including harmonization with related color schemes.

Abstract: A wavelength conversion device is formed by adding a laser-active material to a nonlinear optical crystal, and creating a phase-matching structure in the crystal. Light of a first wavelength excites the laser-active material, generating laser light of a second wavelength. Nonlinear optical effects then generate further wavelengths, such as the second harmonic of the first wavelength, the second harmonic of the second wavelength, the sum frequency of the first and second wavelengths, and the difference frequency of the first and second wavelengths. Multiple output wavelengths are thereby obtained from a single input wavelength. Because of the phase matching structure, the output is aligned in the same direction as the input light.

Abstract: A scheme for error control on AAL in ATM networks capable of realizing a reliable communication with a high throughput and a low latency. On AAL, the segmented data are sequentially written into each column of a matrix shaped data region in an interleaver, while variably setting a last column of the data region in the interleaver. Then, an error control code for the data up to the last column in each row of the data region in the interleaver is obtained and written into a corresponding location within a matrix shaped error control code region in the interleaver. The contents of each column of the data region and the error control code region in the interleaver are then read out, and a prescribed header/trailer is attached to a prescribed number of columns of the data and/or the error control codes read out from the interleaver to form a data unit. Each data unit is sequentially given to a lower layer such that data units are transmitted in forms of ATM cells through the ATM network and an error correction using the error control codes can be carried out for the data at a receiving side when an error occurs during data transfer.
