Abstract: In a point-to-multipoint wireless communication system including a master station and several terminal stations, adaptive PHY mode techniques for adaptively change both the modulation and the error correction code (FEC) are used. The master station includes means adapted to generate and transmit a broadcast message towards all the terminal stations to inform them about the power adjustments to be performed during a PHY mode switching. In particular two set of power corrections to be communicated to terminals are defined: one set informs the terminals on the power corrections when the PHY mode is downgraded, that is a switching towards a more robust and less efficient PHY mode is performed; the second set informs the terminals about power corrections when the PHY mode is upgraded to a more efficient and less robust one. Depending on the direction of the switching, upgrade or downgrade of the PHY mode, and depending on the new PHY mode the addressed terminal chooses the right value of power adjustment to correct the transmitted power. The message with the two set of power adjustments is broadcast to the terminals periodically, or when the master decides it's useful; no other messages are required in order to adjust the power during the switching of PHY modes. That is the terminals know in advance the power adjustment to apply to the transmitted power when they are instructed to perform the PHY mode switching (fig.1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé simple de transfert de données série, pour l'échange de données entre deux stations de bus électroniques (33, 32). La connexion de bus repose sur l'utilisation de deux lignes, la première réservée aux signaux de données/contrôle, et la seconde (19) réservée à l'établissement d'une tension d'alimentation. Le transfert de données entre les stations émettrice (33) et réceptrice (32) démarre par le passage de la première ligne à un potentiel d'état activé, pendant un premier délai (Tactive), au bout duquel la station émettrice laisse cette ligne (22) à l'état inactif durant un second délai (Tstable). Une fois ce second délai écoulé, la station émettrice entame la transmission des données, via les première et seconde lignes considérées. De préférence, on transfère les données en un certain nombre de blocs au sein de la trame de données. Le premier bloc est un bloc de synchronisation, et le dernier bloc est un bloc de somme de contrôle. Un accusé de réception est émis en fin de trame, simplement par passage de la première ligne (22) à son potentiel d'état activé, via la station de réception (32), pendant un autre délai (Tack). L'invention concerne également un système de communication correspondant. Le procédé et le système considérés sont utilisables dans des dispositifs électroniques grand public du type dispositifs portatifs dotés d'équipement de télécommande filaire (4). Précisément, le transfert de données entre un microprocesseur principal de dispositif portatif et un microprocesseur distant d'équipement de télécommande intervient selon les modalités décrites dans l'invention.

Abstract: The intaglio printing plate has a ceramic substrate (1) with recesses (2) defined by webs (3) of equal height, to give a regular and unified screen pattern. The screen is formed by a laser, with removal of molten matter from the shaped structure.  The screen recesses are filled selectively by ink jets, according to the images to be printed, using a low viscose printing medium, which is hardened within the screen by polymerization using ultra violet light. The ink jet system delivers droplets of 20-40 mum diameter into the screen, by digital scanning of the original material to determine the screen filling according to tonal qualities. The substrate is covered by a protective layer to prevent leakages through its porosity. After use, the ink material is removed for the plate to be used again.
