Title: Method and system for transmitting data
Inventor: PIETERSE ROB
IPC: H04Q9/00
Filed: 1999-03-10
Granted: 2002-05-30
Abstract: A method for transmitting data from several first stations (1a-1n), such as measuring stations, to a second station (2), such as a data-collection station, comprises: transmitting, in a synchronisation time slot (5) of a time window (4), a synchronisation message (SYN) from the second station (2) to the first stations (1), transmitting, in a selection time slot (6) of the time window (4), selection messages (SEL) from the second station (2) to selected first stations (1), transmitting, in response time slots (8) of the time window (4), data from selected first stations (1) to the second station (2). In order to save energy in the first stations, the selection messages (SEL) are transmitted in one single selection time slot (6) and its receiver (12) is switched off by each first station (1) if no respective selection message (SEL) has been transmitted.

Title: Speed normalization of an element positionable by a servomechanism
Inventor: LIN FRANK W
IPC: B41J19/00
Filed: 1984-08-27
Granted: 1987-11-05
Abstract: A speed normalization circuit for eliminating the need to fine tune a servomechanism, such as a daisy wheel printer, after manufacture, for example, in order to compensate for speed variations caused by tolerance variations throughout the manufacturing process and evidenced by variations in the actual print wheel speed and the actual carriage speed, is disclosed. In operation, when a restore sequence is called for (power up, remote restore, cover open/resume, check/resume), the carriage is restored to the leftmost home position and is then stepped three times by an identical amount (twelve increments, 1/120 of an inch per increment). The average value of the actual carriage speed for these three movements is determined and a compensation value is selected. If the carriage speed is too slow, the nominal speed value stored in a read only memory look-up table is incremented by a fixed value (i.e., plus one, two, or three units); if the speed is too fast, the nominal speed value is decremented by a fixed value (i.e., minus one, two, or three units). The compensation value is added to the nominal speed value during subsequent actual operation of the servomechanism. For the print wheel, there are two programmed movements upon restore, namely, one half rotation in each direction (one forward, one reverse) for a total of ninety-six increments per movement. The speed compensation value is calculated in the same manner. Other features are also disclosed.

Title: Improved electrochemical-sensor design
Inventor: MUSHO MATTHEW K
IPC: G01N27/28
Filed: 2000-05-19
Granted: 2004-01-15
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of determining whether a sufficient quantity of a fluid test sample has been introduced to an electrochemical sensor having a base bearing a working and reference electrode which provides a flow path for the fluid test sample. The working electrode has a reaction layer on its surface which contains an enzyme capable of reacting with an analyte to produce electrons which are received by the working electrode. The base is mated with a cover to form a capillary space into which the test fluid is drawn. The improvement involves configuring the working and reference electrodes so that a major portion of the reference electrode is located downstream on the flow path from the working electrode with the exception of a small sub-element of the reference electrode which is in electrical communication with the primary portion of the reference electrode and located upstream of the working electrode. This configuration provides the sensor with the capability of sending a greatly reduced electrical signal to the device's detecting element in the event that the capillary space is incompletely filled with test fluid. This reduced signal can be manipulated to produce an error signal which affirmatively apprises the device's user that such incomplete filling has occurred.

Date Mar. 27, 1997A method of determining the location of an unknown source (10) transmitting an unknown signal to satellite relays (14 and 16) comprises receiving the signal from the relays at respective receivers (18). The receivers (18) receive reference signals via respective relays from a common source (22). The unknown signal and reference signal received by each receiver (18) are processed coherently to preserve their timing and phase information relative to one another independently of signals received elsewhere. The signals are frequency downconverted and digitised, and transferred to a common processing computer (150). The computer (150) performs cross ambiguity function processing of the reference signals to determine their relative Differential Time Offset (DTO) and Differential Frequency Offset (DFO). It performs the like for the received unknown signals to determine relative DTO and DFO, relative time and frequency shifts being introduced between the unknown signals by incorporation of the reference signal DTO and DFO in order to enable the unknown signal DFO to be determined relative to the reference signal DFO. The reference signals are also employed to counteract phase noise and frequency drift effects in the unknown signals. From the unknown signal DTO and DFO the position of the unknown source (10) is calculated.

Granted: 1999-12-09
Abstract: Containers (20) for transportation of bulk cargo susceptible to spoilage, that have a controlled temperature profile. The refrigerated containers (20) include opposed insulated (36) side walls (24,35,40) each of which include internal channels (42) for carrying return air from the floor (25) of the container (20) upward into a plenum (50). Each plenum (50) is closed at one end (55), and in fluid communication (70) with a refrigeration unit (72,74) at the other end to supply return air to the refrigeration unit (72,74). Refrigerated air is blown from the refrigeration unit (72,74) into a central air distribution duct (80) that extends longitudinally along the roof (22) of the container (20). The central duct (50) is supplied with a multiplicity of spaced apart apertures (84,84a,84b), and is preferably tapered from a widest point in the vicinity of the refrigeration unit (72,74). Thus, substantially equal refrigerated airflow can be obtained throughout the refrigerated container (20). The container may also be divided into zones (12,14) of different temperatures by interposing a shutter arrangement between channels of each of the side walls and their respective plenum. By controlling return airflow from zones of the container (20), flow of air from the central duct (80) into those zones is also controlled. Alternatively, or in addition, airflow from the central duct may also be controlled by a shutter (64,65,66) arrangement. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>
