IPC: G02F1/35

Abstract: The shifting of one and zero signals relative to each other ensures accurate regeneration without introducing noise. The regenerator for RZ optical signal transmissions comprises a device for shifting the signals apart as a function of their intensity, and an intensity modulator for modulating the shifted signals. The shift applied between the signals having a logic value zero and those having a logic value one is such that the intensity modulation for the signals corresponding to a zero value is less than the intensity modulation for the signals corresponding to a one value. A shift is chosen with a value half the time bit between the signals corresponding to one and zero. The modulation intensity is thus maximum for a one and minimum for a zero.

Abstract: The inventive device comprises a seat which is situated in the device housing and which is provided for the insertion of an identification provider. A holding element located inside the seat engages with a lateral indentation of the identification provider. The opening of the seat is normally closed by a spring-loaded cover element. In order to create a functionally reliable and economic design, the invention provides that the cover element is configured as a pivotal flap which can pivot from the identification provider out of an outwardly pivoted position covering the opening of the seat and into an inwardly pivoted position inside the seat. A projection is provided on the outer side of the flap and functions as a holding element for the identification provider. A recess is arranged next to the seat for the inward pivotal movement of the flap. During insertion and removal of the information provider, the projection of the flap runs along the contour of the information provider and temporarily pivots the flap further back into an overturned position. A profiled control surface is transferred into an effective blocking position which limits the space for the inwardly pivoted position of the flap thus ensuring the engagement of the projection of the flap inside the indentation of the identification provider.
