Patent EP-0599391-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SCHOOLCRAFT RALPH W
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 1993-11-16
Abstract: A pseudo-noise (PN) correlation and demodulation method and apparatus, in which received signals are correlated with locally generated PN codes and correlation measurements are maintained for multiple time bins corresponding to signals received over possible multiple paths. Instead of selecting one or a small number of significant correlation measurements to control data demodulation, the method of the invention performs data demodulation over the multiple time bins, and then selects data values corresponding to significant correlation measurements and combines the selected data values, weighting them in accordance with their relative strengths a determined during correlation. Use of the invention provides improved performance in terms of signal quality and continuity in the presence of multipath conditions. Careful selection of design parameters allows the improved performance to be obtained in a compact and easily portable implementation including transmitter and receiver modules.

Abstract: A method is provided for analyzing an impurity on a semiconductor substrate (12). In this method, those to-be-measured areas on a surface of a semiconductor substrate are exposed with an ultraviolet radiation (22) to provide corresponding oxide films (24). By doing so, an impurity is trapped in the oxide film at each area of the semiconductor substrate. The surface of the semiconductor substrate is cleaned with an acid solution to remove an impurity on other than the areas on the surface of the semiconductor substrate. The surface of the semiconductor substrate is exposed with a hydrofluoric acid vapor (28) to dissolve the oxide films (24) into very fine droplets (30) containing an impurity (26a). These droplets are moved on the surface of the semiconductor substrate to collect these droplets into a drop (32) on the surface of the semiconductor substrate. The impurity in the drop is measured by a known chemical spectrometer.

Abstract: In a method of locating a monetary amount in a binary image, with a binary 1 representing a black pixel and a binary 0 representing a white pixel, an examining window (42) is positioned over a portion of the binary image and a list of objects is generated, with an object being defined as a set of contiguous black pixels. The objects are classified into parts such as characters, dots and commas, depending on predetermined criteria. The classified parts are then examined to determine whether or note they match a sequence which is indicative of a monetary amount. Then, the classified parts are examined to determine whether or not they conform to certain geometric criteria. Thus, a monetary amount is identified without effecting character recognition. The window (42) is moved to a next portion of data, and the process described is repeated.

Abstract: The dynamic system behaviour of the neuron network is taught with a predetermined data sequence. The learning rate can be varied, as can the number of iterations. The network can have a low iteration number but a high learning rate or vice versa. During the learning process, a noise signal may be fed to the network to improve the noise ratio. Preferably, the network is formed as an associative memory whose input weight vectors comprise the code words of the data signals. The scalar products of the vectors are formed with the respective code words with the largest scalar product giving the greatest correlation. In the circuitry of equalising data signals, the signal is fed to a series circuit with several delay elements (VZ1,..VZ5). The undelayed signal (DS) is fed to a weighting network (NG1) and the delayed signals (DS1,..DS4) are fed to a further weighting network (NG2,..NG5). The weighting networks outputs are each connected to an input of a neuron (N1,..N5). The output of each neuron is connected to a weighting amplifier (V1,..V5). The amplifier outputs are connected to the input of a further neuron (N6) which provides the equalised signal (DA) at its output. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of detecting a film with an optical detecting means in a photographic printer machine. The presence of a film is detected by the optical detecting means installed at a film detecting location where light receiver means (2a to 2n) receives an intensity of light from light emitter means (1a to 1n). The method comprises the steps of determining a setting of the film detecting means so that outputs of the light receiver means (2a to 2n) are higher than a reference level prepared in a control means (10) for judgement of the presence of the film and assigning the setting to the film detecting means so that the outputs of the light receiver means (2a to 2n) have a sufficient margin as compared with the reference level. The initial setting for detecting the presence of a photographic film is carried out with no use of any reference film.
