Abstract: The present invention is concerned with the transmission of protection commands to a remote tripping device over an analog signal link with a limited number of tones or frequencies (F1, F2, F3, F4). Different operating principles involve a number of frequency detectors (41, 42, 43, 44) depending on the number of commands (A, B, C, D) that are to be transmitted either alone or in combination. In order to transmit a maximum number of protection commands with a minimum number of tones/detectors, two of the abovementioned distinct operating principles are assigned at least one common tone. A prioritizing mechanism is established for preferring certain related protection commands belonging to a common application. Upon reception of a signal coding a combination of protection commands, it is possible to detect individual protection commands in accordance with different minimum safety and/or security values. A protection command can thus always be transmitted optimally for the intended application, i.e. the parameters of safety and/or security, dependability and transmission time are individually configurable for the protection command.

Abstract: A dither matrix is applied to a high-resolution image to compare the
value of each of the pixels that compose it with a threshold value of
the matrix and to obtain an output value of the matrix (Dither matrix
value) from each comparison. To each pixel value (in_value_r) of the
image there is applied the algorithm represented by the schematic layout
of Figure 7 to obtain the pixel values (Out_r) of a low-resolution
image. C 1 -C 5  and n 1 -n 10  are
parameters that may be selected by means of predetermined criteria based
on comparisons of the low-resolution image, obtained by means of the
operations described above, with an equivalent low-resolution image
obtained by means of a sample method.

Abstract: The present invention provides an impurity
measuring method comprising the steps of dropping a drop
of a first solution on the surface of a substrate to be
measured, moving the drop dropped on the surface of the
substrate so that the drop is kept in contact with the
surface and collects an impurity absorbed on the surface,
recovering the drop after the movement and analyzing the
recovered drop by chemical analysis to determine the type
and concentration of the impurity, wherein the first
solution is phobic to the substrate and the substrate
consists substantially of Ge. 
     The method is of particular importance for
measuring metallic contamination on the surface of Ge
substrates.

Abstract: Automatic meter reading (AMR) is measuring of consumption of media (e.g. electricity, cold water, hot water, gas, heat energy), transmission and processing of measured values. The measuring is performed by meters (e.g. electricity, water, gas, heat energy meters), the measured values are gathered by gathering units (e.g. electricity meters, terminal units) and transmitted to concentrator (e.g. industry computer). Three types of connections are used: LPRB (low power radio or bluetooth), PLC (power line communication), MC (mobile connection).  A new method how to construct AMR networks is suggested, using the gathering units, which perform the conversion of LPRB to PLC; i.e. include at least one LPRB input and PLC output; i.e. have at least one LPRB connection with the meter and PLC connection with the concentrator. Also such gathering units, which perform the LPRB->PLC conversion, are claimed to be patented.  By using this method, optimal connections in AMR networks can be realized.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'hydrocarbures, qui consiste à: a) soumettre un mélange constituée d'une charge d'alimentation d'hydrocarbures et de vapeur à un reformage catalytique à la vapeur afin de former un gaz partiellement réformé; b) soumettre le gaz partiellement réformé à une combustion partielle avec un gaz oxygéné et amener le gaz partiellement brûlé vers un équilibre au-dessus d'un catalyseur de reformage à la vapeur afin de former un mélange gazeux réformé; c) refroidir le mélange gazeux réformé en deçà du point de rosée de la vapeur contenue dans le mélange afin de condenser l'eau, et séparer l'eau condensée pour produire un gaz de synthèse déshydraté; d) synthétiser les hydrocarbures provenant dudit gaz de synthèse déshydraté par réaction de Fischer-Tropsch; et e) séparer les hydrocarbures de l'eau co-produite. Le procédé de l'invention se caractérise en ce qu'au moins une partie de l'eau co-produite est envoyée vers un saturateur où elle est placée au contact de la charge d'alimentation d'hydrocarbures pour donner au moins une partie du mélange de la charge d'alimentation d'hydrocarbures et de vapeur soumis au reformage à la vapeur. L'utilisation de l'eau co-produite pour produire de la vapeur améliore l'efficacité de l'ensemble du processus et réduit voire élimine la nécessité de séparer les contaminants présents dans l'eau co-produite.
