Abstract: A time-division-multiplexed fixed wireless loop system and methods
therefor are disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of cells (e.g.5d) each
having a base station (10) and a plurality of terminals (15). The base station (10)
includes a steerable and adjustable multibeam antenna for communicating with each
of the terminals (15), which have fixed antennas. A cell controller associated with
each base station allocates communication time slots so as to minimize mutual
interference between base station/terminal links sharing the same time slot. Slot
assignment is based on regional, periodically updated interference measurements
that are stored in data bases.

Abstract: In the field of mass flow measuring apparatuses, there is a need for
greater accuracy of known devices. 
     The invention concerns an impeller for projecting bulk material that
otherwise might fail to contact a mass flow measuring apparatus during
normal use. The impeller includes a surface (47') inclined relative to a
locus of its travel, whereby centrifugal forces cause granular material
engaged by the surface to rise to a peripheral zone (47'') for projection
towards a sensor member (55). 
     The invention also relates to a radar Doppler speed measuring apparatus
(82) for use in mass flow senors; to methods and apparatuses for
compensating for longitudinal inclination of mass flow sensor members;
and to methods and apparatuses for calibrating such devices.

Abstract: Since the corner detection means (7, 9) to detect each
position of the blue board area from video signal, the conversion
address generation means (11) to generate the conversion address
based on the position information detected and the position
information showing each corner position of the image area of
video signal to be inserted and the image conversion means (16) to
form conversion source video signal based on the conversion
address are provided and the source video signal is to be inserted
to the video signal, the operator's operation adjustment as the
conventional device becomes unnecessary when inserting the source
video signal into the prescribed frame of the video signal, and
the operation of the operator can be further decreased. Thus, a
video signal processing device capable of further decreasing the
operator's operation can be realized.

Abstract: A cylinder direct injection spark-ignition engine in which
fuel is directly injected into each cylinder. The engine comprises
intake and exhaust valves movably disposed to a cylinder head. A
piston is movably disposed in a cylinder in a cylinder block so as to
define a combustion chamber. The piston is formed at its piston
crown with a generally circular cavity having a center axis which is
offset from a center axis of the piston toward the intake valve. A
spark plug is provided such that its tip end section is disposed above
a part of a peripheral portion of the circular cavity which part is
located closer to the center axis of the piston than to periphery of the
piston. A device for generating swirl of intake air in the combustion
chamber is provided. A fuel injector valve is provided to directly
inject fuel into the combustion chamber and has an axis which
inclines relative to a bottom flat surface of the cylinder head and
gradually approaches the bottom flat surface in a direction from the
intake valve to the exhaust valve. The fuel injector valve has a fuel
ejection hole whose axis inclines relative to the axis of the fuel
injector valve so as to form a first angle which is smaller than a
second angle formed by the axis of the fuel injector valve, relative to
the bottom flat surface of the cylinder head.

Abstract: An image processing method for dividing a digital
image signal into plural image signals corresponding to
plural blocks constituting a single display screen, and
performing block-by-block coding of the image signals of
the respective blocks, comprises transforming an image
signal of a coding target block to be subjected to coding
into frequency components by frame-by-frame frequency
transformation on a frame basis or field-by-field frequency
transformation on a field basis; setting a processing order
for coding the frequency components corresponding to the
image signal of the coding target block, according as the
image signal of the coding target block has been subjected
to the frame-by-frame frequency transformation or the
field-by-field frequency transformation; and successively
coding the frequency components corresponding to the image
signal of the coding target block according to the order
which has been set. Therefore, in coding of an interlaced
image or a specific progressive image in which frame DCT
blocks and field DCT blocks coexist, a run length is
increased, thereby improving coding efficiency.

reagent test pad during the incubation period. The device may be economically formed
from low cost materials, is simple to use and facilitates disposable of the sample
material after testing. The device is advantageously used in combination with a
storage device which includes recesses for easy storage of several devices and allows

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a soft finish on a fabric such as a suede tone, raised loops, broken loops or fleeced and for providing a faded effect such as a washed or faded denim. A fillet having a plurality of wires extending therefrom is wound on a cylinder of a finishing machine. The outer ends of the wires extending from the fillet are angled at approximately 80 DEG  from vertical. The wires are covered with an abrasive coating which is applied by an arc spray system. The coating extends around the perimeter of the wire from at least just below the bend of the wires and extending to the outer tip of the wires. The fabric is driven over a nip roll that is adjusted to bring the fabric in closer contact with the wires on the cylinder which is rotating. An alternative embodiment of accomplishing the same type of soft finish such as suede or washed or faded denim finish is accomplished with multi rolls (or kiss rolls) finish machinery using the coated wire fillet on each roll. The wires of fillets for napping machines are similarly covered with the abrasive coating for achieving a more efficient operation on a napper finishing machine. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for automatic control of a friction clutch (1) in a
vehicle, which clutch is designed to be disengaged and
engaged by a clutch actuator (3) under automatic control.
An initial partially engaged clutch stroke position (Q1)
and an initial clutch stroke position (P1) at which fluid
pressure in the clutch actuator reaches a prescribed value
are detected to obtain a difference (R1) between said two
clutch stroke positions prior to initiation of automatic
clutch control. The friction clutch wears as it is used.
Therefore, both of the partially engaged clutch stroke
position and the clutch stroke position attaining the
prescribed fluid pressure value change while the automatic
clutch engagement/disengagement control is being performed.
However, the difference between these two clutch stroke
positions does not change. A current clutch stroke position
attaining the predetermined fluid pressure is only detected
during the automatic clutch control, and a current partially
engaged clutch stroke position (Q2) is determined by adding
the difference (R1) to the detected clutch stroke position
(P2).
