Abstract: To provide a method for processing a cloth to form a three-dimensional
design pattern on the cloth not only by a conventional printing
system, but also by an ink-jet system. A method for processing a cloth to
form a three-dimensional design pattern on the cloth, which comprises two
processes ― one in which it is treated with Solution A containing a salt
formed from a phenol derivative and a hydroxide of alkali metal or alkali-earth
metal and the other in which it is treated with Solution B containing a
chemical capable of restoring the salt in solution A to its original phenol
derivative. The present invention is advantageous in use of highly safe
water-soluble chemicals, allowing their uniform application to a cloth to form
a three-dimensional design pattern on the cloth. In addition, the present
invention has the advantage of allowing cloth to be subjected simultaneous
fiber shrinking and coloring, making it very conducive to the production of
printed goods with highly accurate and uniform three-dimensional design
patterns at reduced costs.

Abstract: A switched reluctance drive comprises a reluctance machine, a controller,
power switches actuated by the controller and a current transducer for
monitoring the current in each phase winding. The controller employs a
sensorless rotor position detection technique by injecting voltage pulses into the
idle period of each phase winding in a chopping mode. Acoustic noise
associated with the injected pulses is concealed by varying the frequency at
which the pulses are injected according to rotor speed. In an alternative
embodiment the frequency is varied pseudo-randomly.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include improved architectures of optical
communication systems that use wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) or other
multiplexing techniques. The system architectures include a network of primary
nodes (12) coupled by suitable optical transmission media (14) and a plurality of sub-networks
of secondary nodes (S) coupled to various primary nodes by suitable optical
transmission media. At least one of the primary nodes includes a multi-band module
(M), and at least one of the primary nodes having a multi-band module includes a subnetwork
coupled thereto in which at least one of the secondary nodes in the subnetwork
includes either a multi-band module or a single wavelength A/D module.
Although the single wavelength A/D modules add and/or drop only single channels,
the multi-band modules are capable of simultaneously adding and/or dropping
multiple wavelength channels. Thus, the strategic use of primary networks having
multi-band modules and sub-networks having multi-band modules or single
wavelength A/D modules allows for improved system loss characteristics compared
with conventional architectures such as ring architectures, mesh architectures and
linear architectures.
