Abstract: A fiber optic coupler is formed by inserting a plurality of optical fibers into the longitudinal bore of a glass tube so that at least a portion of each fiber extends from at least one end of the tube. The midregion of the tube is collapsed onto the fibers, uncollapsed bore portions remaining at the tube end regions. Each bore portion is connected to the tube end surface by a funnel that facilitates the fiber insertion step. The central portion of the midregion is stretched to reduce the diameter thereof. In a first embodiment, glue is applied to the funnel. Before the glue is cured, a sufficient period of time is allowed to elapse to permit said glue to flow by capillary action between the fibers and the adjacent portion of the wall of the bore portion. The glue flows at least 3 mm into the bore portion beyond the bottom of the funnel. The glue that flows by capillary action fails to completely surround the fibers with glue. The glue is then cured. In a second embodiment, a hollow filament is inserted into the uncollapsed bore portion and a vacuum is applied to the filament. Glue, which is applied to the funnel, is drawn into the uncollapsed bore portion due to the evacuated condition thereof, thus filling the uncollapsed bore portion to the desired level.

Abstract: The invention relates to a controllable electrode device for the intracorporeal stimulation of body tissues, especially for the intracardiac stimulation of the heart, with an electrode cable. The electrode cable comprises an elongate, flexible conductor whose outer side is provided with an insulating layer and whose inner side forms a channel for introduction of an elongate member for transmission of a force in the direction of the distal end of the electrode cable. The electrode cable also has an electrode head fitted on the distal end of the conductor. In order to obtain an electrode device with an electrode cable which is also comparatively flexible and elastic with an inserted mandrin and in which the mandrin does not necessarily have to be pushed into the electrode cable during transportation of the electrode cable through a vein it is proposed, according to the invention, that the elongate member (8, 11) be designed such that it is rigid in the longitudinal direction and has a comparatively high lateral flexibility. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A miniature D.C. motor (21) has a casing (32) in which magnets (31) are disposed and a rotor (33) is disposed inside the magnets. The rotating condition is detected by a rotation detector (50) which comprises an inductor (53) and a capacitor (55). The capacitor detects leaking fluxes externally from the casing among fluxes created by mutual operations of the magnets and an armature (43) and converts a change of the leaking fluxes into electric signals. The capacitor (55) is electrically connected to the inductor so as to constitute a resonance circuit (54). The resonance circuit is mounted to an outer surface of the casing. A resonance frequency (f₀) of the resonance circuit is made so as to correspond to a frequency (f) to be generated for a rotating time of the armature.

Abstract: In the transmitter, data are divided into two or more groups, according to importance. In a three group system, for example, the data streams are then mapped onto a multiresolution QAM constellation in the following way. The most important data are determine the quadrant, the next most important determine which of four subsets is used in that quadrant, the next most important determine which of four points is used within that subset. This mapping system allows receivers of differing capabilities to detect as much data as they are able, or a single receiver to detect as much data as the channel quality allows. For example, a QPSK receiver could detect the most important data, a modified 16QAM receiver could detect the most important and second most important data, while a modified 64QAM receiver could receive all the data. 
     The system can be used for HDTV transmission, either satellite or terrestrial, DAB, mobile telephone systems, or similar. When used for HDTV, for example, a QPSK receiver can detect an NTSC signal, a 16QAM receiver can detect an EDTV signal, and a 64QAM receiver can detect a full HDTV signal.
