Title: Integrated photonic switch
Inventor: SOLHEIM ALAN
IPC: H04B10/2581
Filed: 2000-03-15
Granted: 2007-08-07
Abstract: The integrated photonic switch can be used in all-optical networks. incoming multiplexed signals from a number of input fiber ports are separated into their component wavelengths. Individual wavelengths are switched within the switch fabric towards the desired output, and the wavelengths are then multiplexed into WDM signals directed to the appropriate output ports. The multiplexer and demultiplexer are diffraction grating devices, integrated with the switch fabric. The switch fabric includes two matrices of 3-D MEMS mirrors arranged in the same plane, or in two parallel planes. The optical path between the input ports, the demultiplexer and the input matrix is pre-set so that each wavelength is incident on a certain mirror. Similarly, the geometry of the output matrix, the multiplexer and the output ports determines uniquely the wavelengths on a certain port. However, the position of the mirrors may be adjusted with a control system, so that the path of a wavelength within the switch fabric is adjustable, so that a wavelength input on a port may output the switch on any port.

Patent CA-2304917-C (CA)
Inventor: FISCH EBERHARD H
IPC: H04N19/625
Filed: 1990-06-01
Granted: 2001-11-06
Abstract: ABSTRACT:      Method and apparatus for digitally processing a high definition television augmentation signal.      A method and apparatus for digital encoding are described for compressing the augmentation channel signals (chrominance and luminance signals for panel information and high frequency luminance and line difference signal) so that this information can be transmitted in a 3 MHz wide RF channel using a digital transmission scheme such as QPSK. Analog signal components are sampled and converted to digital signals. Each of the signals is fed into a separate coder which reduces the number of bits/pixel required to reconstruct the original signal. Compression is achieved by quantization and removal of redundancy. The compression scheme is based on the use of DCT together with VLC. Each augmen-tation signal has its own coder, which is adapted to the unique statistics of this signal.

Granted: 2006-06-20
Abstract: A pilot valve is operated by solenoid formed by a coil (52) wound around a non-magnetic spool that has a bore (56). A rare earth permanent magnet (62) is inside the bore adjacent one end and abuts a flux concentrator (58) farther inside the bore. A plunger (68) is slidably located within the bore biased away from the flux concentrator by a spring (70) and projects out another end of the bore. An enclosure of magnetic material completes a magnetic flux path around the solenoid and has an aperture through which the plunger projects. The pilot valve includes a cage (86) of rigid non-magnetic material which abuts the enclosure and has a recess which supports the plunger out of contact with the housing. The plunger selectively opens and closes a pilot tube (92) through the cage to operate a diaphragm (100) that responds by engaging a primary valve seat to control the flow of fluid through a valve body.

IPC: G06T19/20
Filed: 2000-10-03
Granted: 2005-04-05
Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for use in CAD/CAM design in which two or more bodies may be combined to form an assembly. When the assembly is formed, the two bodies intersect so that the volume of the assembly consists of cells containing volume common to both bodies, cells containing volume originating solely from one of the bodies, and cells containing volume originating solely from the other body. Often it is desirable to remove a portion of the assembly consisting of a cell originating solely from one of the bodies. In an existing system this can be done by selecting a face of such a cell, provided however, that said face has not been created by dividing one of the faces of the original bodies. If a divided face is selected, additional user inputs are required before the removal is executed. According to the present invention, divided faces can be selected directly by the user, without the need for further processing. The preset invention makes use of topology logs to keep track of all faces in the assembly. This alleviates the necessity for extra user input when a divided face is selected.
