Patent EP-1405306-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SCHEP CORNELIS M
IPC: G11B27/30
Filed: 2002-06-27
Abstract: A record carrier (1) is described which has a servo track (4) indicating an information track (9) intended for recording information blocks, which servo track (4) has a variation of a physical parameter, a so called wobble. The wobble is modulated for encoding record carrier information, such as addresses. The servo track is subdivided in modulated parts in which the frequency and/or phase of the variation deviates from the wobble frequency, and non-modulated parts. The slope of the wobble is substantially continuous at transitions between the modulated and non-modulated parts by using wobbles (25,26,27,28) starting at the maxima or minima of the wobble in the first part of the modulated parts.

Abstract: A device, system and method for obtaining in vivo images from within a body lumen, such as the gastrointestinal tract. Figure 1 shows a swallowable capsule (40) for obtaining image data. The swallowable capsule (40) includes an imager (46), a processor (47), and an illumination source (42), suitable for illuminating a body cavity. The apparatus also includes an optical system (50), which may incorporate lenses and filters, for the purpose of focusing light into the imager (46). Images are transmitted, via a transmitter (41) and an antenna (48), and are compressed by the compression module (600), to reduce bandwidth. The transmitter (41) further includes a power source (45), such as silver oxide batteries, lithium batteries, or other electrochemical cells. The transmitter also includes a modulator (70), an amplifier (72), and an impedance matcher (74). The receiver (12) receives compressed image data through an antenna (15), and stores it in a storage unit (16). The receiver is small, and may be worn on a patients body. The receiver also includes a data processor (14). Preferably the data processor (14), its data storage unit (19), and a monitor (18), are part of a personal computer, or workstation, which includes a CPU (13). Once data is received, it is decompressed, via a decompression module (610), and processed for display.

IPC: G06F9/44

Abstract: A computer-aided method (fig. 12) for developing software by which programmers may implement different features of an application as independent reusable components, even though these features affect the control flows of one another. A programmer may add new features to an application without the laborintensive tasks of examining and modifying existing code. The programmer uses a set of programming language constructs to specify nonprocedural program units, organize the program units into reusable features and integrate several features together into a feature package. An interaction detection algorithm analyzes program units and determines whether there is interaction among program units in a feature and among features in a feature package. The programmer must resolve the interaction, if detected, before the programs can be executed. A run time system specification supports the semantics of the programming language constructs and preserves the conditions that enable interaction detection.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé et un appareil améliorés permettant d'orienter longitudinalement un film thermoplastique tubulaire au fur et à mesure que ce dernier quitte une filière d'extrusion annulaire, afin de mieux régler ladite orientation.  Sur la trajectoire qui le mène de l'orifice de sortie (21) aux moyens de tirage vers le bas, le film au moins partiellement fondu passe par un dispositif de frottement annulaire (101), la force de frottement exercée par ce dernier pouvant être variée de façon contrôlée.  Le dispositif est refroidi depuis l'intérieur (105) de manière contrôlée à l'aide d'un milieu de refroidissement liquide.  Le frottement peut être réglé par une lubrification par air dans laquelle de l'air est poussé à travers des trous (123) dans le dispositif de frottement ou à travers un métal microporeux (102) ou, dans un autre mode de réalisation, par aspiration du film contre le dispositif de frottement.  Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, l'extrusion depuis la filière est une extrusion périphérique et dans un autre mode de réalisation préféré, le film contient un mélange d'au moins deux polymères compatibles ou compatibilisés, et la majeure partie de l'orientation s'effectue alors que l'un de ceux-ci se trouve à l'état cristallin et l'autre encore principalement à l'état fondu.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un réseau de télécommunication à routage automatique (100) comprenant : une pluralité de noeuds (N1-N15) ; une pluralité de coupleurs en étoile (S1-S4) ayant chacun une pluralité d'entrées et une pluralité de sorties ; et des trajets de communication reliant la pluralité de coupleurs en étoile à la pluralité de noeuds afin d'assurer la transmission de trames d'informations entre ces derniers, lesquels trajets de communication comprennent au moins un trajet de communication redondant (L1-L3). Chacun des coupleurs en étoile détecte laquelle de ses entrées est la première à recevoir une trame et transmet uniquement la trame ayant été reçue en premier. Les trames comprennent chacune une séquence de début de trame (FSS) et les coupleurs en étoile modifient les séquences de début de trame avant de transmettre la trame d'informations, par exemple, en réduisant la taille d'une séquence de début de trame selon une quantité prédéterminée (par exemple, 2 bits), ce qui permet de diagnostiquer une défaillance d'interconnexion au moyen de l'analyse de la séquence de début de trame.

Abstract: A dual-band multiple beam antenna system (10) for a communications satellite (22) sharing a set of reflector antennas (12-18) for transmit and receive frequencies. One set of reflectors (12-18) is common to both the downlink and uplink frequencies. The reflectors (12-18) are fed by feed horns (30) that are diplexed and exhibit frequency-dependent radiation patterns that separate the phase centers (34, 36) over the downlink and uplink frequency bands to obtain dual-band performance. Dual-band corrugated feed horns (30) are used The focal point (32) of the reflector (12) is in close proximity to the phase center (34) corresponding to the downlink frequency band. The phase center (36) for the uplink frequency band is spaced a predetermined distance (38) from the phase center (34) of the downlink frequency band. According to the present invention, the uplink frequencies are defocused and the downlink frequencies are focused thereby creating identical radiation patterns at both frequency bands and over the coverage region of the communications satellite.
