Abstract: An infrared (IR) transmitter modulator/receiver controller (TM/RC) encodes
downlink serial digital data and precise time synchronization strobes from a host system
to provide a downlink modulated serial digital electrical waveform. At least one IR host
system transceiver (HST) converts the downlink modulated serial digital electrical
waveform to a modulated downlink IR light waveform. At least one IR remote device
transceiver (RDT) receives the modulated downlink IR light waveform from the HST.
Each RDT is connected to a remote device. The modulated downlink IR light waveform
is converted into a corresponding electrical waveform and further demultiplexed into its
downlink serial digital data and precise time synchronization strobes. Each RDT
provides an uplink electrical and IR modulated serial digital waveform to be received by
the HST for conversion to an uplink demodulated serial digital electrical waveform. The
HST transfers the uplink demodulated serial digital electrical waveforms to the TM/RC,
thus providing a multiplexed combination of data and time information on the downlink
and communication of uplink status information from the remote devices.

Abstract: Transmission rates of 1 Gb/sec. at up to at least 200 m
diameter distances are achieved in an Ethernet environment
by functionally decoupling frame size to network
roundtrip time. This decoupling is achieved by extending
the duration of the minimum size event to exceed the
network roundtrip time. This extension of the carrier
event is made without extending the data field and without
altering the frame check sequence. Code implementing
the media access control layer and reconciliation layer
at the transmitting and receiving end of the network is
modified such that at 1 Gb/sec. half-duplex, non-data
symbols are appended to the end of short packet frames.
The collision window is extended to include these symbols,
which extension symbols are also included in fragment
discard calculations. The extension is removed,
however, before checking the frame check sequence, and
before passing the frame to logical link and control. In
a switched environment, the extension is not propagated
to network links operating at less than 1000 Mb/sec.

compatible with existing slower transmission rate
Ethernet networks. In full-duplex Ethernet environments,
the media access control does not form the carrier extension.

nozzles wherein each of the nozzles has an exit orifice with an areal dimension
substantially less than the areal dimension of a pixel to be printed. Dots are
printed in a pattem for each pixel wherein print quality is achieved that
approximates a higher resolution print made by conventional ink-jet
methodologies.
