Patent EP-0320306-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YOKOYAMA HIROSHI
IPC: G01S13/22
Filed: 1988-12-12
Abstract: The phased-array radar is capable of electronically directing a directional beam of an antenna (40) in any of N different directions, i.e. direction ϑ₁ to direction ϑ N . Scanning of the directional beam is effected either in a long-range mode for detecting and tracking a target cruising at a long range from the radar or a short-range mode for detecting and tracking a target cruising at a short range. This reduces the data rate and thereby increases the target information updating frequency associated with a short-range target. A transmit trigger gener­ator (22) selects a high or low transmit repetition frequency. A beam controller (20) selects the beam direction. Control means (16, 18) control both the trigger generator (22) and the beam controller (22) in such a way that, when the low transmit repetition frequency is selected, the directional beam is directed in one direction for a predetermined period of time and then continuously directed in a plurality of different directions for a predetermined period of time and then each at the high transmit repetition frequency. The radar control means (16, 18) repeat this procedure to command the directions ϑ₁ to ϑ N  at the low transmit repetition frequency while commanding the directions ϑ₁ to ϑ N  a plurality of times each at the high transmit repetition frequency.

Abstract: In an apparatus for detecting foreign matter on the surface of a substrate (O) carrying a circuit pattern (C), the surface to be in­spected is scanned by a polarized laser beam (L), and a detecting optical system is provided for detecting the intensities (I1,I2) of two polarized components with different angles of polarization of the light (R) which is scattered and/or reflected at the surface of the substrate. The existence of foreign matter onthe surface of the substrate is discriminated on the basis of the result of a com­parison between the intensities of the two polarized components. According to invention, a beam splitter (S) is used for extracting the two polarized components from a single beam (R0)* of reflected scattered light. Since both polarized components are extracted from light which has been reflected or scattered into the same di­rection, the comparison result is not affected by differences in the intensity of the light (R) scattered or reflected into differ­ent directions.

Abstract: In a teletext decoder, the digital codes for a requested page are acquired and stored in the page memory each time the page occurs in the recurrent teletext transmission cycle. This means that the stored digital codes are over-written in the page memory on each occurrence of the page. Where an acquired digital code has been changed for a different code in the decoder so as to display a special character, this different code has hitherto been over-written periodically by the original code, giving rise to a flicker in the display at the character position concerned. The present invention prevents this flicker by arranging the decoder to look at each stored digital code before it is over-written, and preventing the over-writing from occurring when the digital code pertains to a special character.

Abstract: The original documents of A4 or A3 format are selectively read by a scanning apparatus (2) which is integrated into a system for producing and transmitting images. The originals of A4 format are normally positioned on a fixed exposure surface (5) and the originals of A3 format are introduced into a separate device (7) for transporting documents, which is adjacent to the fixed exposure surface (5). A carriage (22) with lamps (36) is slidable below the exposure surface (5) to illuminate the A4 original while to illuminate the A3 original the carriage (22) is moved into a fixed position (23) corresponding to the separate reading device (7) where the original A3 is slid with respect to the carriage past an exposure zone (E). The reflected images of the originals are passed by means of mirrors (40,42,44) mounted on the carriage (22) to a lens (45) which reflects them on to a photodetector device which converts the light rays into digital electrical signals. To adjust the focal lengths of the lens (45) to the various dimensions of the A3 and A4 formats and to compensate for the different distances (difference D) of the two types of originals from the lens, two of the mirrors (42,44) are mounted on an auxiliary frame which is movable on the carriage. The auxiliary frame is displaced by its own motor (76) and a lead-screw (70) to different positions in relation to the type of original which is to be read.

Abstract: An interactive dynamic range adjustment method for printing digital images, and an implementation system, are disclosed. The method is based on experimental findings about visual photoreceptor adaption and human visual contrast sensitivity. The system adjusts the contrast of the low-frequency component only of the image, preserving (or if one wishes, enhancing) the high-frequency image component in its contrast. The adjustment is controlled by a mapping curve which the user manipulates interactively. The simulated optical print image (44) and the dynamic range adjusted image (44') are displayed side by side on a monitor screen (30) so that the user can make proper selection of parameters to achieve the desired effect. For many images, the system automatically computes good parameters and no further adjustment is needed.
