Abstract: The invention relates to a broadcast data receiver of the type
used to receive data from a remote location, process the same
and generate audio, video and/or auxiliary data. The receivers
typically include a UART internally which is required to be
provided with external connection means. Conventionally an
additional connection means is provided which adds to the
expense of the receiver. The current invention allows
connection with the UART via a SCART connection socket
which is already required for other data transfers for the
operation of the receiver and therefore overcomes the need for
the additional connection means to be provided.

Abstract: An x-ray tube assembly (16) includes a vacuum envelope (52) and an x-ray permeable exit window (54). An anode (50) is positioned within the vacuum envelope (52) such that a near side is adjacent to the exit window (54) and a far side is opposite thereof. A cathode assembly (74) is also mounted within the vacuum envelope (52) which directs an electron beam (78) toward a focal spot or point (58) on the far side of the anode (50). The anode further includes a central cavity or indentation (70) which provides a location for mounting a set of radiation attenuating vanes (64) in addition to a shaped x-ray filter or compensator (68). Close placement of the vanes (64) and the filter (68) relative to the focal spot of the anode desirably reduce off focal radiation and allow beam shaping.

Abstract: A head stabilizing system is provided. The head stabilizing system is intended to minimize loads on the head and the neck, some of which may be injurious or even fatal, by generating a reaction force that substantially opposes a force acting on the head and generated by rapid deceleration of a vehicle or a crash impact. The head stabilizing system includes a helmet, a connection structure, and at least one resisting member. The resisting member generates a reaction force that opposes the crash impact force, yielding a reduced net force on the head. This reaction force can be generated as a function of position, velocity or acceleration. The resisting member may include a tether, a dashpot, or a dashpot containing a controllable rheological fluid. The viscosity of the controllable rheological fluid can be automatically adjusted in response to changes in status of a vehicle or it's occupant.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for measuring Polarization Mode
Dispersion (PMD) of single-mode optical fiber. The method allows for a faster
and easier method of accurately measuring intrinsic ultra low PMD optical fiber in
a low mode coupling state. The method involves the introduction of a plurality of
localized external perturbations on the optical fiber, after which the optical fiber is
allowed to reach a steady state, and then measurement of the differential group
delay occurs using standard measurement techniques. The plurality of localized
external perturbations is altered followed by another measurement of the
differential group delay. After obtaining a sufficient number of measurements to
provide a Maxwellian distribution, the Polarization Mode Dispersion value can be
calculated as the average of the distribution.
