Abstract: Patente de Invenção:<B>"SISTEMA PARA A IDENTIFICAçãO DE LINHAS DE MãO E DE DEDOS SEM CONTATO FìSICO"<D>. O procecedimento para estabelecer a imagem de linhas de mão e/ou de linhas de dedos com uma câmera opera com o dispositivo fotográfico sem contato com a pele. Por meio do emprego de luz polarizada linear ou circular no feixe de raios de iluminação e de imagem é possibilitada uma representação independente do modelo de pele superior e inferior. Com isso obtém-se por um lado uma imagem rica em contrastes do relevo de pele e por outro lado pode ser obtida uma imagem das camadas de pele mais profundas e vascularizadas. Um algoritmo pesquisa os modelos de pele da superfície da mão a procura de elementos de linhas de diversas intensidades e sentidos ( Vetores). A identificação numérica calculada contém freq³ências totais de vetores assim como amplitudes e fases de componentes harmónicos de projeções de imagens de vetores dos dois modelos. O procedimento possibilita o controle de pessoas à distância, proteção completa da instalação de medida e maior segurança contra fraude.

Title: A method of operating an optic device
Inventor: KITCHER DANIEL JOHN
IPC: G02B6/34
Filed: 2001-06-05
Abstract: A method of tuning an optical multiplexer/demultiplexer comprising a thermally sensitive wavelength dispersive device. A plurality of optical signals at different carrier frequencies are introduced to the wavelength dispersive element via an array of input waveguides 1. The wavelength dispersive element further comprises two free propagation regions which separate an array waveguide grating 2 from input waveguides 1 and output waveguides 3. The optical signals are directed towards output waveguides A, B and C, outputs A and B are connected to photodiodes 4, output C is connected to an optical fibre and is positioned to collect most of the power of the input signals. At the temperature at which the device is optimally tuned, the power collected at output C is maximised and the power collected at outputs A and B is equal. If the temperature deviates from optimum the power collected at A or B will increase at the expense of the other. This increase is detected by photodiodes 4 and can be compensated for by heating or cooling the device to return it to its optimum temperature. A heater/cooler is provided beneath optical chip 5 and is controlled in response to the power detected by photodiodes 4.

Title: Anti-virus protection at a network gateway
Inventor: LAHTI PASI
IPC: G06F21/56
Filed: 2002-01-25
Abstract: A method of preventing the infection of a computer network 1 by a computer virus which can be spread by electronic mail traffic comprises the installation of an anti-virus application (12, fig. 2) at an e-mail gateway 7 of the network, which scans incoming email traffic for known viruses according to a database of virus signatures. If a new virus is detected by the provider of the anti-virus application (12), a notification of this event is sent from the provider to the application. Upon receipt of this notification, the anti-virus application diverts incoming emails or their attachments to a buffer for safe storage. A further notification sent by the provider instructs the application to cease this prevention of delivery after a signature has been created for the new virus. The invention limits the damage caused by a new virus by distributing its updated signature as quickly as possible.

Inventor: FLETCHER PAUL
IPC: H04B7/08
Filed: 2002-03-16
Abstract: A phased array antenna (500) that employs a switched least means squared architecture comprises plurality of receiving elements (502a-n) of a phased array antenna, each having a respective weighting unit (504a-n) associated therewith, a summation unit (506), a processor (515), a plurality of sampling devices (516a-n) and a switching unit (527). The switching unit (527) contains a switch arm (529) having a contact (531) at its free and, an ADC (533) and a plurality of switch contacts (535a-n) corresponding to the ends of channels (525a-n) connected to the respective sampling devices (516a-n). Each of a plurality of receiving elements (502a-n) is sampled by a respective sampling device (516a-n) prior to an incoming signal being subjected to complex weighting by respective weighting units (504a-n). Each of the signals sampled by the sampling device (516a-n) passes along respective channels (525a-n) to the switching unit (527). Thus, by switching between the contacts (535a-n) it is possible to vary which of the receiving elements is sampled. The processor (515) calculates new complex weighting coefficients to be applied to the incoming signals by the weighting units (504a-n) using the sampled incoming signals in order to minimise a difference between an output from the summation unit y(n) and a training signal d(n). Application to Bluetooth (RTM) WLAN systems having lap-top computers, mobile telephones, PDAs etc. is mentioned.
