Abstract: Methods and apparatuses in mammographic photography, wherein the breast (M) to be photographed is pressed and spread between holders (6,7) attached to the photographing apparatus. A beam (R) of X-radiation is directed from one side of the holders (6,7) through the breast (M) placed be - tween the holders at depicting means (21) placed at the opposite side of the holders in relation to the source (2) of X-radiation, said depicting means being placed inside a film cassette or equivalent placed in connection with the frame of the apparatus. The breast (M i ) to be photographed is placed on the top face of the lower holder (7), against which the breast (M i ) to be photographed is pressed from the root portion (J) of its upper side by means of the outer tip portion (6') of the upper press member (6); the upper press member (6) is displaced by pivoting it around its articulation point (8) so that it becomes substantially parallel to the support plane of the lower holder (7) in the frame part (10) that is stationary relative the source (2) of radiation and the part (3) for holding the depicting means (21); and when the upper and lower holders (6a,7a) become substantially parallel to one another, if necessary, the pressing of the breast is continued further by displacing the upper press member (6a) in its linear guides so that it retains its orientation.

Abstract: A method for multi-addressed transmission of cells in a switching structure of a communication system operating in the asynchronous transfer mode. Instead of internal routing information (ri) for non-multi-addressed cells (Z), row index information (zi) and multi-addressing information (rsi) are inserted into an internal cell header (IKZ) of the communication system of multi-addressed cells (RZ). After the reception of a multi-addressed cell (RZ) in a switching element (KE) of the switching structure, a prescribed row (Z1 . . .Zn) of a multi-addressing matrix (RSM), that is provided with routing information (kri) that is individually associated to switching elements, is identified with the assistance of the row index information (ZI). The switching paths of the multi-addressed cell (RZ) in the respective switching element (KE) are defined by the routing information (kri) individually associated to the switching elements. The routing information (kri), that is individually associated to the switching elements and is formed of path information (wi) and of row index or cell routing information (zi, zri), is calculated by a communication system controller (ST) with the assistance of the subscriber signalling information and is entered into the multi-addressing matrix (RSM). In this method the structure of the internal cell header (IKZ) of the communication system is preserved.

Abstract: A solenoid driver (28, 114, 151) applies an actuation current to a solenoid (14) for a predetermined period and a lower holding current thereafter. A switching device (34, 116, 152) pulses the applied current within upper and lower limits to maintain the actuation and holding current amplitudes, the pulses being integrated by solenoid inductance into a substantially steady-state current. A multiprocessing unit (18) determines the amplitudes of solenoid current. A signal representative of desired current amplitudes is compared with a signal representative of measured solenoid current, and a signal representative of the difference therebetween is used to control the switching device (34, 116, 152). Voltage developed across a resistor (36) in series with the solenoid (14) is input to a differential amplifier (40) having connected to its output a peak detector (42) that mimics the decay rate of current in the solenoid (14), the signal representative of measured solenoid current being obtained from the peak detector (42). Power dissipation by the solenoid driver (28, 114, 151) is minimal, and the latter is capable of withstanding a continuous short to a source of electric current. The output of the peak detector (42) is monitored by the microprocessing unit (18) for the detection and logging of faults.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for controlling the transmission of frames or packets of data in a serial network which allows out-of-order delivery. The data frames transmitted by an initiator node to a recipient node include frame serial number or sequence count information. Acknowledgment frames, transmitted by the recipient node to indicate delivery of the data frame or packet, include matching serial number or sequence count information. According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the initiator node and recipient node include resources which relate the serial number or sequence count information, resources which include control information in the acknowledgment frame, and resources which determine the transmit status of all acknowledgment frames prior to that specified by serial number or sequence count in the acknowledgment frame. The status information is used at the initiator node to update the status of any data frames whose acknowledgment has not been received as a consequence of an out-of-order delivery to the recipient, a delay in processing by the recipient, a delay of the acknowledgment frame in the transmission back to the initiator node, or a complete loss of the acknowledgment frame.

Abstract: A CDMA signal receiving apparatus for a base station is disclosed. The apparatus is characterized by a spread-spectrum demodulation section which has a plurality of channel-signal processing sections (105-105+k) and a common-signal processing section (108). Each of said channel-signal processing section receives a digital spread-spectrum modulated base band signal and performs a reception processing of a channel signal by means of spread-spectrum demodulation using common data, wherein the channel signal refers to a digital spread-spectrum demodulated base band signal destined to the channel of concern. The common-signal processing section (108) computes, from the digital spread-spectrum modulated base band signal, values required in common to all of the channel-signal processing sections for the spread-spectrum demodulation to be processed in each of the channel-signal processing sections, and outputs the values as the common data.

Abstract: This invention relates to an apparatus and method for implementing deinterleaving, in particular for a paging system. The memory elements of RAM are arranged into an array in such a manner that the number of elements in each row corresponds to the number of bits in a code word, and the number of rows corresponds to the number of code words. At a point before the memory, a series-parallel conversion is carried out, and each memory element has a multiplexed input so that the writing in the memory can be carried out row by row horizontally and the reading from the memory can be carried out vertically. If, for example, the memory has 30 x 9 elements, according to the invention 30 addresses are required for the writing and 9 addresses for the reading, i.e. a total of 39 addresses instead of the 270 addresses previously required.

Abstract: A disk drive achieves increased data storage capacity and circuit simplification by eliminating data identification fields at the beginning of each data block location defined in concentric data storage tracks of a rotating storage disk. A transducer head for writing and reading data blocks is positioned over selected tracks by a positioning mechanism. A head position servo control loop uses a plurality of equally spaced apart servo sectors which interrupt the data blocks in user data segments between adjacent servo sectors. The data blocks are located by dividing the user data segment into a predetermined number of data value location count increments, determining a count value corresponding to the beginning of the data block location, detecting a starting location of the user data segment in relation to an adjacent preceding servo sector, counting the data value location increments, comparing the data value location increments with the count value to determine an equivalence, and thereupon enabling a data transfer gate for transferring a data record to or from the data block location. Methods and apparatus for locating and bypassing servo sectors which split a data block into parts without loss of data block position are also disclosed.
