Abstract: PCT No. PCT/NL93/00232 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 12, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 12, 1995 PCT Filed Nov. 5, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO94/10579 PCT Pub. Date May 11, 1994The invention relates to a method for detecting partial discharges occurring in a cable, wherein the cable has an earth screen with a helical structure, comprising the following steps of: arranging at least one detection coil round the cable for detecting electromagnetic pulses travelling along the cable; applying a potential difference between the core and the earth shield of the cable; and analyzing pulses generated by possible partial discharges in the at least one detection coil in order to determine the location and quality of the partial discharge having caused the pulse, wherein the detection coil is adapted to process signals with a frequency higher than 100 MHz. It has been found that with coils comprising only such a limited number of turns the signal detected by the coil is a much better representation of the form of the electromagnetic pulse travelling along the cable.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé qui permet de sécher des brindilles de bois et autres articles semblables. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, ces brindilles se déposent (10) sur un convoyeur (11, 13, 15) qui les fait passer, sous forme de lit, au travers de l'enceinte d'un dessicateur (28). Cette enceinte peut être cloisonnée en des zones (19, 21, 23, 31, 33) et niveaux différents selon la configuration souhaitée. Un certain volume d'air de séchage est chauffé puis envoyé au travers du lit de brindilles pour en réduire la teneur en humidité. Dans une mode de réalisation préféré, ces brindilles sont agitées (42, 44) pour faciliter leur exposition uniforme à la chaleur de séchage, puis envoyées vers une zone de conditionnement avant d'être rejetées (20) hors de l'enceinte du dessicateur.

Abstract: Par alimentation continue, une cuve cylindrique (15), dotée de plateaux (20,24) horizontaux espacés verticalement, reçoit un matériau solide fluable. Chaque plateau comporte des zones annulaires (27) à espacement concentrique percées d'orifices (28). L'air est forcé par lesdits orifices vers le haut pour produire une couche de recirculation de matériau au-dessus de chaque plateau. Cette couche est caractérisée par un jaillissement de matériau au-dessus des zones à orifices et un flux de matériau vers le bas entre lesdites zones. Des échangeurs de chaleur concentriques (32), placés verticalement, occupent l'espace situé entre deux zones à orifices et le matériau traverse progressivement la cuve de haut en bas, formant ainsi les couches, et est rejeté au niveau de la couche inférieure. Des bras de balayage (57) tournent autour des plateaux et au-dessous des échangeurs de chaleur et l'air est rejeté de la cuve pour passer dans un séparateur à cyclone (140) qui sépare les particules solides et fournit un air de recirculation nonpollué. L'appareil peut servir à sécher, refroidir, traiter ou brûler un matériau solide fluable.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a gene expression system in eukaryotic cells. In particular, it relates to a self-initiating and self-sustaining gene expression system utilizing an RNA polymerase prebound to a DNA construct before the introduction of the complex into cells. This system is capable of functioning in the cell cytoplasm without integration into the genome of host cells, and does not require host cell factors for initiation and maintenance of gene expression. Therefore, the invention has a wide range of applications in in vitro and in vivo gene expression, including gene therapy in resting cells.

Abstract: The invention provides apparatus and methods for measuring oxygen tensions in biological systems utilizing physiologically acceptable paramagnetic material, such as India ink or carbon black, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) oximetry. India ink is introduced to the biological system and exposed to a magnetic field and an electromagnetic field in the 1-2 GHz range. The EPR spectra is then measured at the biological system to determine oxygen concentration. The EPR spectra is determined by an EPR spectrometer that adjusts the resonator to a single resonator frequency to compensate for movements of the biological system, such as a human or animal. The biological system can also include other in vivo tissues, cells, and cell cultures to directly measure pO2 non-destructively.

Title: Adaptive cross-polarization equalizer
Inventor: ANDERSEN STEVEN
IPC: H04B7/00
Filed: 1995-11-30
Abstract: An equalizer (10) employed with a receiver (50) for cancelling an interfering signal due to low cross polarization isolation uses an error signal generated in an adaptive baseband equalizer (16) to determine the magnitude of an interfering signal and inputs a cancelling signal to the co-polarized channel until power in the error signal derived from the adaptive baseband equalizer (16) is minimized. The determination of the magnitude of the interfering signal is performed at baseband (after demodulation but prior to data detection) and the cancellation is performed at RF, prior to dispersive microwave elements. The co- and cross-polarized signals are received and amplified (11). A copy of the cross channel input signal is supplied to each receiver channel (51,52). An RF vector modulator (20) is used to control the phase and amplitude of the cross-polarized signal prior to summation with a desired co-polarized signal. A control logic circuit (35) sets the phase and amplitude for the vector modulator (20) to minimize the magnitude of the error signal by stepping the setting of the vector modulator (20) by one unit and sampling the power in the error signal. If the power is reduced the vector modulator (20) is stepped again in the same direction. If the power is increased the vector modulator (20) is stepped in the opposite direction.
