Patent EP-1102416-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SAITO ATSHUSHI
IPC: H04W52/36
Filed: 2000-11-17
Abstract: The mobile station (10) comprises a step size decider 60 that is for
deciding a proper step size of power control level in correspondence with
the power fluctuation of the reception signal, and can decide a step size of
power control level of itself. The mobile station is used for closed loop
power control of reverse link CDMA communication. The closed loop
power control uses transmission power control bits. Each transmission
power control bit is transmitted from the base station toward the mobile
station to designate either an increase or a decrease of the transmission
power of the mobile station. When being supplied from the base station
with a reception signal subjected to the power fluctuation, the mobile
station uses the step size decided in itself to transmit toward the base
station an output signal that is subjected to power control.

Abstract: A shot identification system for a multi position shooting range links the shot data with target shot data i.e. it detects if the correct target is hit, or if a shot strays onto an adjacent target. Each shooting position is fitted with an IR detector to register the release of a shot by detecting the emission of muzzle gasses. By taking into account the flight time of the projectile the actual impacts on the targets can be linked to the firing positions using simple discriminating circuits.

IPC: G06F9/44

Abstract: A method lookup mechanism is disclosed which not only enforces accessibility
constraints imposed by modularity constructs but also enables transitive method
override. According to one embodiment, when a method m is invoked on a target
object, the resolved method m in a resolved class is checked to determine whether it
has been declared as public/protected. If so, then standard method lookup may be
used to determine the proper implementation of method m to invoke. However, if the
resolved method is not declared as public/protected, then a path stack is constructed.
The path stack provides a listing of the class hierarchy between the target object and
the resolved class. Once constructed, the path stack is used to determine which
implementation of method m to invoke in response to the method invocation.
Specifically, the resolved method m is initially set as the candidate method to invoke.
Then a downward search is performed through the classes on the path stack. At each
class on the path stack, a determination is made as to whether that class: (1) provides
an implementation for the method m; (2) can access the resolved method; and (3) has
declared the method m as public/protected. If so, then the proper implementation for
method m to be invoked may be determined using standard method lookup. However,
if a class satisfies only the first two criteria, then the method m for that class is made
the new candidate method, and the process loops back to test the next class on the
path-stack. This loop continues until either a class is found which satisfies all three
criteria, in which case standard method lookup is used to invoke the proper
implementation for method m, or until all of the classes on the path stack have been
tested, in which case the last detected candidate method is invoked.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé permettant, d'une manière complètement automatique, de former des enveloppes de la taille de l'article sans laisser d'espace entre l'article et la ligne de soudure. Le procédé consiste à disposer, dans une direction d'alimentation, au moins une nappe (30) de film continu qui peut subir un soudage thermoplastique selon deux rabats continus, se recouvrant l'un l'autre, de manière à présenter une ligne longitudinale continue fermée. La nappe pliée (38) comporte une extrémité avant fermée préalablement de manière transversale. Des moyens de découpe et de soudage de thermoplastique sont mis en oeuvre (52) transversalement à la nappe. Après avoir écarté l'un de l'autre les rabats opposés à l'extrémité longitudinale fermée continue (33) un article (10) est inséré aux fins d'emballage et disposé à cette fin entre les moyens de découpe/soudage (52) et l'extrémité avant fermée (38). Puis, au niveau des moyens de découpe/soudage (52), on effectue un resserrement transversal (53) de la nappe pliée, au moyen d'un dispositif de préhension transversal (53), laissant la nappe libre de glisser à travers ce dispositif. On tire alors la nappe en amont (45) du dispositif de préhension transversal et on tire vers l'arrière la nappe qui glisse au travers du dispositif de préhension jusqu'à ce qu'une extrémité avant de l'article rentre en contact avec l'extrémité avant fermée. On tire encore une fois vers l'arrière la nappe jusqu'à ce qu'une extrémité arrière de l'article rentre en contact avec le dispositif de préhension transversal. Ensuite on découpe et on soude transversalement la nappe au voisinage du dispositif de préhension transversal, ce qui résulte en la formation d'une enveloppe formée et fermée sur trois côtés autour de l'article. Dans cette étape, il n'y a aucun élément supportant l'article contre le dispositif de préhension, ce dispositif servant de moyen de blocage. Enfin, l'enveloppe est éloignée et la nappe tirée, les moyens de découpe et de soudage permettant de créer dans la nappe une extrémité avant fermée.

Abstract: An optical fiber has a core, an inner cladding and an outer cladding on. In a first region the inner cladding refractive index has a first value which differs from the core refractive index by about 0.0045. The inner cladding refractive index changes along said fiber from the first value to a second value at a free-space end. The second value matches the core refractive index, so that the effective diameter of the core at the free-space end is that of the core plus the inner cladding. Hence the outer cladding acts to constrain the light in the end region. The spot-size and the V number (normalized frequency) are increased, thereby increasing offset tolerances.

Abstract: A security system to prevent unauthorised starting of the
engine of a vehicle, comprises a remote control unit (18)
equipped with a transponder which, on reception of an
interrogation signal by means of at least one reception aerial
(20), transmits an identification code group by means of a
transmitter unit (40). Located in the vehicle is a control
unit (12) which, on actuation of a starter button (26) within
the vehicle, transmits the interrogation signal, and
subsequently checks the identification code group transmitted
by the remote control unit. Starting of the engine will only be
possible when the identification code group coincides with the
code group expected by it. Connected to the reception aerial
(20) is a signal detector (28) which has a reaction threshold
level that can be toggled between a high value and a low value.
This signal detector will relay the interrogation signal to
further processing stages only when the interrogation signal
level exceeds the set reaction threshold. A code checking
circuit (32), connected to the signal detector (28), checks the
interrogation signal relayed to it as to whether it contains a
pre-established code group. On recognising this code group, it
switches the reaction threshold level of the signal detector
(28) to the high value, whereby the code checking circuit (32)
will cause the transmitter unit (40) to transmit the
identification code group only when it receives the
interrogation signal even after the signal detector (28) has
switched to its high threshold level.
