Title: Multi-component-extruder
Inventor: ANDERS MARTIN
IPC: B29C48/92
Filed: 1996-02-23
Abstract: A multicomponent extruder produces a multicomponent profile of thermoplastic and/or other intrinsically viscous materials, esp. rubber, and comprises two or more extruders, each producing an individual component. The extruders have a casing with screw rotated by a controlled drive. They each have a nozzle through which a continuous mass flow rate mi is forced, thereby profiling it. Nozzles occupy a common head, their outputs mi uniting at a point to form a multicomponent profile of total mass flow rate mG, where mG =  SIGMA .mi. There is a means of measuring the total mass flow rate MGMes downstream of this point, with pressure and temp. measurement in each extruder. Also claimed is a procedure for control of the process, essentially as described.

Title: A rake receiver and a method of providing a frequency error estimate
Inventor: GIANCOLA DIEGO
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2000-11-21
Granted: 2004-07-07
Abstract: An input signal is mixed with a scrambling code and with an OVSF code, and then accumulated over a period of time equal to one symbol of the pilot channel before being reset. The resultant complex signals are mixed with the conjugate of complex signals provided by a pilot pattern generator, with the result being fed to a delay line ( 22 ). A multiplier multiplies the complex value at a location P(n) in the delay line ( 22 ) by the conjugate of a complex value at another location P(n+k), and provides the resulting complex number (which is a complex vector whose phase is a coherent measurement of the phase rotation occurring between the symbols corresponding to the two locations) at an output ( 27 ). The real part of the complex signal provided at the output ( 27 ) is provided to a first combiner ( 30 ), and the imaginary part is provided to a second combiner ( 31 ). These combiners ( 30, 31 ) also receive corresponding signals from all of the other fingers (not shown) of the rake receiver. Each combiner ( 30, 31 ) coherently sums all of the signals at its inputs and provides the result to its respective accumulator ( 32, 33 ), which provide coherent filtering. The phase rotation of the combined and accumulated signals is then calculated. Once convergence of the frequency of an LO with the frequency of the received signals is achieved, the value of k is increased.

Abstract: 1467158 Data processing system SIEMENS AG 5 April 1974 [18 April 1973] 15304/74 Heading G4A In a data processing system including a plurality of magnetic tape units connected via one or more control units to a central unit where the tape units are such that following a power failure they must be reset before they can be controlled by the central unit, the central unit issues a RESET command to which the control unit(s) respond to reset the tape units, and to rewind any tape units which were operating when the failure occurred through a fixed distance or to a fixed marker, e.g. the tape leader. The tape units each include a manual switch to render them operative under control of the central unit which, following a power failure, issues a special command which is decoded to actuate selected switches remotely. The tape may then be rewound for a time determined by a monostable circuit which is reset if the tape leader is reached. Alternatively rewind operations may continue for a fixed number of sectors on the tape. To restart a record or replay operation the rewound tape is advanced until the block in which recording or replay was being performed at the occurrence of the fault is detected whereupon the operation restarts.
